I make and restore leather products in my spare time, mostly bags, backpacks and small items like wallets and card-holders. I am still learning a ton every time I take on a new project and always appreciate feedback on my creations.
For the moment I don't take orders as I like to spend too many hours getting the finished product as good as I can : this means that if I were to sell these bags, the selling price would be way more than the bags are worth due to the hours of work involved.
As always, do let me know what you think of this video. If you have any tips or comments please let me know by dropping a comment below this video :)

Love your refurbish videos. I still want a Swiss Map Case to clean up. Can't find one. As for removing the paper...a couple of suggestions. A fine cobbler I know, sometimes uses acetone to loosen old glue. Doesn't hurt leather so it won't hurt the wood. Also, you may want to investigate getting an inexpensive cabinet scraper to remove all the excess paper and glue. Probably a better result than the knife blade. I liked you 'piecing' technique for the inside of the box. You got a better fit than using one big piece with the corners sliced. Thanks James!

Thank you so much for the kind feedback! I had not thought about acetone but it would have been the perfect solution in this case :o Also, I keep meaning to get a cabinet scraper but whenever I see them in DIY stores they look so flimsy and cheap I just can't bring myself round to grabbing one... I may need to reconsider as it would have been the perfect tool for this application. Looking for Swiss items outside of Switzerland is tough. I've had luck mainly on Leboncoin which is a French second hand website - you sometimes get Swiss items trickle into France. You "may" be able to find some you can buy and get delivered through the website's services. Hope you find what you're looking for!

@@JamesBerry Any wood tool site should have them. An old sacrificial saw would work. Another think I remembered, if you know that a joint is glued with hide glue, then use white vinegar to soften it. Fixing Furniture in Canda uses that often.

It it's used in a wet or damp environment would you recommend burnishing the edges?
@JamesBerry
@JamesBerry 7 месяцев назад
Always :D Burnishing edges on vegtan leather is always a great thing to do. I would only warn you about not getting too much of your burnishing agent on the flesh side of the leather if you want to fil it with stropping compound as it may not take as well. But apart from that I see no drawbacks to burnishing leather for any use (in damp environments or other). Happy crafting!
