In this video, Daniel Reach gives us an in-depth look at how to add a zipper to a leather project. Zippers are available in complete sets, or you can buy a bulk length and cut the zipper to size. Daniel demonstrates this process using a few of our leather project kits to create a unique zippered tool pouch.

OLD Leather Smith here, very nice David, i am happy there is some one like you now 4 the beginners. I had 2 learn the hard way trial and error. The only difference 4, me is I hand sew EVERYTHING. I have a machine but never used it. GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃

Adding a zipper to a purse when this popped up on youtube!

Brilliant show Daniel and another chapter to add to my reference material, the encyclopedia Weaver leather supply. Very concise yet layman-friendly instruction thank you. On another lighter note the old face furniture is coming in well, keep on at it my bearded brother. All the best from Scotland

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it and found it useful. As for the "face furniture," I've wanted to do a viking style beard for a while...my wife finally talked me into going for it. Not sure how long it'll last, but gonna give it a shot. 😆

@@TheLeatherverse Oops. That comment was supposed to come from this YT handle.

@DanielReach-TheLeatherVerse Well keep at it I've managed to get to good two fists and a half from the bottom of my chin so I'm more Gandalf the Grey (well white) than Ragnar. But it is working well for you pal. Having to perform a full detail on it after eating is a pain in the arse but you get used to it. Daniel, you are a gentleman sir and I honestly can't thank you enough for sharing your fantastic skill and artwork with us. I am serious when I said about your shoes being my library and I will be coming back to it as I hopefully progress and grow my skills. And remember in years to come people will look at these shows saying, that Viking guy is pretty good, I think weed to be visiting this Weaver leather place for materials and follow him for tutorials. Take care, buddy.

@@2rueblue Thank you my friend. I honestly don't know what to say to that kind of encouragement. The blessing of being able to do this full time, and for a company as amazing as Weaver is something I don't take for granted. Hopefully the Lord allows me to do it for the rest of my life.

@DanielReach-TheLeatherVerse Well I guess I'm siding with the Lord as usual brother, I'm just glad he saw fit to bless you with this fantastic talent.

Hermes use top and bottom zipper stops as it’s another place to add branding. These days I order pre-made zippers (made to order) as the 50 pence extra that I’m paying per unit saves me about £5.00 of my time.

Good video, really enjoyed it. I liked the kit bashing idea. As a bloke, I’d happily take a club bag full of tools out. Sorry if I missed it (was making lunch, having missed breakfast), an explanation of the common zipper sizes took me ages to figure out. The number (#) is roughly zipper teeth width in mm when closed. I like a #7 for bags (chunky) and #3 shorts and #5 for jeans.

@DanielReachCreations Год назад

Thats a great point! I think I missed zipper sizes. Didn't even think of it till I read your post.

@jrtime228 Год назад

Another great video out at the perfect time in my opinion! Off topic question though. I am going to be making a bracelet with a “raised edge” around the outside of basketweave stamping. How can i stamp without ruining the raised edge? Part of some of the vertical stamps are going to be hanging on the middle of the stamp, putting half on the intended area and half on the raised edge. I can send you a design example if this doesnt make sense.

Would be nice to have a free patten attached to this video 😉

@TheLeatherverse Год назад

LOL. This one fell into the "flying by the seat of my pants" category. Besides, I can't make it that easy on you. 😉😀

@thomash.4501 Год назад

@@TheLeatherverse The hardest part is not to put a zipper but as you know to have an idea and inspiration.

@DanielReachCreations Год назад

@@TheLeatherverse I didn't realize I was commenting as "the Leatherverse" until I saw your response. Sorry about that.

This can be hand stitched yes? A machine is just too rich for my blood.

@WeaverLeatherSupply Месяц назад

Absolutely! Just mark your stitch line and punch your holes the same way you would when sewing two layers of leather together!

@jillelainejones Год назад

I take it you have to own a $1500.00 dollar leather sewing machine. I noticed the slow stitch foot and it sits up high no table and it has arm? I need you to do a zipper insert on leather. I have a Bernina 2000 embroidery machine😊

@DanielReachCreations Год назад

(I thought I left a comment, but maybe not.) Come on over! LOL. As far as the sewing machine, I had a family member who passed and left me an inheritance. The sewing machine was my one splurge with the money.
