Is it just me? or am I the only person that try's to read Eric's notes on the back of his hand in videos?....🤣

No it's not. Old mom habit. That's where my son wrote his homework assignments. Which made it rather comical when he would then try to tell me he had no homework. For an otherwise quite bright child, it was amazing.

I watch for them also.😂

This is awesome! Sculpted and free form and beautiful! I’ll be trying this! Thanks for your help and advice.

This had the same "get it done" attitude that you see in the recent Tod's Workshop episode. He was explaining that alot of leatherwork like sheaths would have been made quickly with a priority on function.

Awesome, Eric! I like seeing the discovery/improvisation in this vid. I’d be glad to watch more unpolished iterative content like this from your shop! Cool pouches too 🤌

Thanks! I was a bit nervous to keep in some of the self chatter but figured it'd help other folks showing the real design process haha, just a lot of staring and talking to myself. It worked out though!

@@Corter That is how all of my projects go, so I loved seeing it

I greatly enjoy your content. It has made me much more comfortable entering this hobby. Thanks.

I just spent Sunday watching a 6:30 hour 3D printed mold emerge on my printer. Longest print I have ever done. It is a positive (screwed to plywood) and it's outside frame. With a 5oz leather allowance between them. It is for a small item I make over and over again. I wet the leather, stick in on the positive, put the frame over it and compress it in my wood vise. Then use clamps to keep it together while drying. The agony is watching the printer misbehave after 4 hours. Normally I would cut a wood mold by hand but this is a small leather item and I could not get the accuracy with hand tools. Molding leather is wonderful.

very cool! in case you had not come across them yet, Jimmy Diresta makes some great wet molded leather things and has great ideas on the molding aspect

I like it it’s utilitarian and no fuss. 👍👍👍👍

I've using a 3D printer to make my molds ... I get EXACTLY what I'm looking to accomplish

Sweet project.

I've gotta say when I read the title I was expecting an entire 2x4 length 😂 but these are such a practical project!

Sweet:! That’s how I make my tape measure holder’s. I like how you said ( it’s something) because the wife named are little business that name .( it’s something)!

This gives me ideas :)

Encouraging. Thanks.

Love it..☺☺

Wow great

Great video,where did you get the rivet setter from? Thank you for video

Love it! Please excuse me while I go cut some 2x4s.

Awesome tips! Any idea when the hammer is coming out? I have been using the chisels, and they are by far one of the best!

So glad to hear! about a month to 6 weeks on the hammer :)

Who is doing you camera work now? I missed it if you introduced them.

I molded a small belt pouch with a Bluetooth portable speaker wrapped in plastic wrap!

Clamps ad?

I prefer the old clamp.

Never have too many clamps

Why didn’t you reinsert the 2x4 when you were cutting off leather top?

I believe I did? Either way you absolutely can :)

I thought the same thing, on the original all-the-way-across cut. But like Eric said, he was junk "tinkering", and I like seeing his process. With the beautiful work that he puts out, I feel like anything he does is just A-OK!
