We're excited to have Jimmy DiResta back as a guest. In this week's video, Jimmy makes a wet molded leather iPhone holster case with a pencil holder. This case features loops so it slides right onto your belt. The phone case is hand stitched using Ritza Tiger thread and is made from 6/7 oz. brown latigo leather.

I wouldn’t consider this my best project, but I learned a lot and that’s what’s most important because a fairly simple project like this can be repeated and improved. Thank you for watching

jimmydiresta this whole video I thought how have I not seen this video before 🤷‍♂️ turns out it’s only just been uploaded, I think the project looked great and had a great petina thanks for your inspirations Greetings from the uk 🇬🇧 👍

Hiya Jimmy. Just a FYI, next time use a "Vegetable Tanned" 6-7oz. It wetforms 10x's better. Then do all your cuts, sanding and trimming. Next dye before you glue and sew. Chrome tan and very thick pre-colored veg tan is never good for a project like this. Chuck of weaver leather did a quick demo on different thickness' on weaver's RU-vid channel. Optional - Add sealer or leather conditioner. Im not sure if you can do both, you will have to ask Chuck.

Thankyou sir for your video here and the toolbag one.

I put beeswax on my stitching forks and it stops the leather from separating as you pull the fork out

@TheHslade3 4 года назад

Honestly, Jimmy - it’s encouraging to see that even you have to modify your plans to deal with unexpected materials/process performance. That’s what happens in every project I do!

Did i really just spend 11 minutes watching a guy make a leather holster for his phone.. Yes , yes i did. Awesome work , you are very skilled .

LOL! I was kinda thinking that too, but it was actually interesting. Almost made my DIY/crafting senses awaken to new possibilities - only im not sure what i would want to make in leather...

I like hearing your commentary with your videos. It keeps me more engaged and a better understanding to your process.

Aussie old time saddlemaker here. Hand stitching with the main body flexible is very tricky and difficult. Well done Weaver. This shows a very experienced leather worker.

@keithad6485 5 месяцев назад

Aussie saddle maker here. Been a saddler since the mid 1980s. I tell me customers that though I have been an saddler for years, I am still learning! This video showed me new ways of molding leather. Very well thought out steel press tool. Thank you to Weaver.

@bobwebber8521 4 года назад

Am always amazed how one can pick up hints from others videos. Would never have thought of using a washer as a width guide so thanks for that. Made a similar thing from a plastic shampoo bottle a while ago and cut a finger slot half way up from the bottom so I can lift the phone out without any cords. Love watching leather working and have great respect for the skills involved. Thanks so much.

@sigvar6795 10 месяцев назад

The inconsistencies and irregularities are what I look for in something hand made. This came out looking very nice. I love the color of that piece of leather. I have not done anything with leather since school. So the 70s. As I recall I used Feibings products then. Im getting ready to experiment with Chase and Repousse now. 3 years on though you probably wont see this comment. Nice Work.

@kmac9748 4 года назад

Hi Weaver, I enjoyed Jimmy's process and his honesty. I made a similar iPhone holster for a friend a few years back, sans the attachment for pencils, and solved the the removal difficulty by including an opening at the centre bottom (lozenge shaped about 1" x 1") sufficient for a fingertip to raise the phone; I also used a holster clip rather than belt loops thus reducing the bulkiness and increasing the attachment options.

@carr869 4 года назад

I like your project and think it turned out very nice. I do a lot of leather work. Mostly holsters and I use a dead blow hammer to add my makers mark and I put it on the project early on. If I screw up then I haven't lost much time. On my holsters I like to use very hot but not boiling water to soak the leather. It helps to harden the leather when it dries. Thank you for taking the time to make and share this video with us.

@CraigH999 4 года назад

Push the stitching forks into some wax before making the holes in the leather - this may help you withdraw it after. You may have to do that several times throughout the process. I always enjoy your leatherwork videos.

I do a lot of my own leather gear too. Yes there are some small inconsistencies here and there, but I don’t mind anymore, that’s what makes them handcrafted. Looks good.

@maknifeandrods7701 4 года назад

well thought out and like that you share the mistakes and how you fixed them. everyone has mistakes and most times you don't see them on camera. I'm doing a passport wallet and tooled a design twice before doing it on the wallet then did a antiquing which turned out horribly so I retooled another piece of leather and just did the dye work. So everyone has their creative juices challenged all the time. good job

@ETs-Everend 2 года назад

The only leather project I've done as an adult was making a phone holster about 10 years ago. I'm about to make my 5th holster since I got a new phone yesterday. Thanks for posting this video, it's good to see how someone else does it. Mine has a metal belt clip so the phone hangs about 3" below my belt, riding low on my leg like an old six shooter, this makes it quite comfortable to leave on while driving. It can either hug my leg under the seatbelt or dangle next to the seat.
