Eric - I've been meaning to mention that since you decided to start narrating your videos, they've gone from "very useful" to "indispensable". Having you talk us through the little details and difficulties, has been truly priceless. Myriad thanks!

I can only agree with this.

I’ve seen 100’s of makers skiving leather and never seen it done so cleanly before and so effortlessly 😎

Excellent tutorial. You do a great job of going slow enough that a total beginner can follow along and you explain everything nicely. Thank you.

I love how you are honest about progressions. "For your first couple tries don't worry about x" "practice this a few times before you worry about curves"

Can we stop for a second and appreciate his skill with the skiving knife? 😲

I’m a novice into leather working and I find your videos and explanations extremely helpful. Thank you.

Eric, your voice is just soothing. I like the narration and it gives me confidence

Thank you for providing a tutorial that even I as beginner will now practice piping. You are a good teacher and you have amazing control with your knife.

Man, you’re such a goddamn legend. Thank you so much for getting me into the craft, and helping me refine my skills in it.

This is the 1st video I see of yours in over a year and I LOVE the fact that you talk it with us now. I plan to start making bags and wallets as a hobby and gifts for my family and have definitely looked at your videos too learn. Thank you.

Been working leather for a few years, great value in watching how others do things. Excellent master class!

As everyone else appears to have written too. Excellent tutorial! Good pace, simple and clear explanations. I learned so much. Thank you again.

Thank you so much! I want to make a clutch for my sister and this came at just the right time. Your tutorials are amazing

I'm very new to leathercraft and piping seemed very intimidating. But this looks really fun and the end product is gorgeous. I can't wait to give it a go!

This is quite the master class. Thank you!

You're an excellent instructor! I refer to your videos quite frequently and often try to emulate your work. Oh, and your videographer is spot on, you're a great team.

I am so very impressed of your skills.

One of the best tutorial channels out there, thank you for the excellence my man

Thank you Eric for sharing your knowledge with us! I appreciate that you make your knowledge freely available to us. Love from Malaysia!

Thank you for a great tutorial. I've done piping one vinyl bags on the machine but never in leather by hand so this was really helpful to know what I need to do differently. I love that you burnished on the inside.

I'm not involved in leathercrafting myself, but I can say that the skills you are teaching others are quite valuable if put to use. If the economy keeps going the way it is we may have to start relearning practical skills and living in reality, heaven forfend.

You have a brilliant way of explaining everything. Thank you. I've been wanting to try piping and nowi am confident enough to give it a try. Thanks again

Very nice and clean!

Fantastic session, wonderful technique to learn for making totes, and purses. Nice detail for renaissance festival pouches.

Me encanta tu trabajo!! Tu paciencia al trasmitir tus conocimientos con nosotros!! Intento seguirte pero mi inglés es básico y me pierdo pero seguiré sin duda viendo tus vídeos q me encanta tu trabajo y como nos lo enseñas!! Ahora toca practicar!! Gracias

Thanks man! I’ve been wanting to start making small bags but that was the part I thought wouldn’t be fun, that helps A LOT✌️

Excellent instructional video. Thank you.

Excellent tutorial! Can't wait to see the finished product!

Excellent video as always, I really got a lot from this one, thank you for the effort you go to, I've learnt so much from watching your work 😎👍🏻

I love your tutorials! you also helped me improving a lot!

Great video. I thoroughly love watching.

Good stuff as always. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Beautiful work, thank you!

Thanks for making this1 Been excited for it since the Insta post!

Nice, a very handy technique to be apply on my next projects.

Thank you so much for this tutorial. You're amazing 👏 👍

Great teacher

Thank you! A good skill to learn.

Loved the tutorial 😍😍😍😍 Im a biggener, amateur, love leather and stitching....

Thank you thank you!!! Best tutorial on piping to date 🙏 🥳

love your tutorials! Seems like a pre-bend for the gusset would make things a lot easier, both to glue and to stick down. Has anyone tried this?

Nice tutorial. Thank you so much.

Beautiful !

I don't know with the camera cut in the middle, but it sure did look like you skived that entire first edge in one piece... the edge consistency was remarkably satisfying.

Thank you it is so helpful!

super tutorial! thanks!

Great job, I like it. Thanks.

Thanks for a great tutorial!

Great info as always!

Thank you so much for this . Appreciate it

Thanks...great video.

You must have been looking at my KZread search history. I literally was searching for how to do this on your channel and elsewhere an hour before you posted this….

Great job!!

Great video!

Outstanding

Very good! Thank you.

Nice tutorial.

Supper❤ Respect you...,... very very good 👍 job... helpfulness

Never really knew I would get into this stuff! Maybe in the future I'll attempt to make something but either way your content is great! I love seeing passion in the things people do, and you definitely show love for this work! Thank you for this.

Awesome !

This is exactly the video i was hoping to find, excelent video, love the narration, you are a great teacher. PS. You sound a little like Brent Spiner from star trek which is cool, pretty sure he narrates audio books.

thank you so much

I was looking forward to seen you do the punches at the corners 🥲

Your videos are really helpful and fun! You seem to always use natural veg tan. I love it as well, I just every now and then will get a project close to done and will get a mystery dark grey/black smudge on the leather that I'm really not sure what it is? I try to be very clean especially with NVT leather. Any ideas what it may be in your experience and if so is it somehow removable. Sorry it's off subject from video but I figure if anybody has experienced this you may have. Thanks

Love your videos! You are a great teacher and your voice is very calming. Question- if the Barge cement is not available in my area, would other brands of rubber cement be ok? Thanks!

I like your tutorial, comprehensible instruction with great camera movements and angles of close-up shots. One question for you, why don't you grade the seam allowances?

Thank you so much for this video! How would this be different if I plan to put piped edges on both sides? Would I need to work completely inside out until the other side is completed as well?

Dude, how do you get such amazing skiving results?! It's amazing!

I totally agree. I tried to skive leather by hand. It is not nearly as easy as he makes it looks. Hand skiving is an art. Knives must be extremely sharp. I finally tossed my skiving knives and bought a bell skiver. Best money I've spent!

It ended up looking great! My question is, when the other side is done, it’ll be more difficult to turn right side out. Will all that pushing and pulling end up creasing or marring the leather?

Спасибо большое ДРУГ МОЙ!!!! Очень полезное и интересное видео!!!!☝️ 👍👍👍

great video! where do you buy your leather cording? it's not on your tools+materials list and it really should be for this video!

Great tutorial. Thank you Eric. Love your videos.! I’ve learned so much from you.!

Good to learnrd

What you could make from this part ( 12:00 )… I’m thinking a lid for a box or a coin wallet. Great video, thanks!

Quick question, if you see this. Would it not be a little bit easier to make the area behind your stitch line, essentially the glue area, a bit longer so that the gluing down and stitching is easier? And then trim everything up to make them even and neater?

Have you considered making a contact adhesive review video, based on what's available on Amazon? I've been using Aleene's leather and suede glue, but am looking for an accessible Contact adhesive.

Thank you ;-)

Is it advisable to soak the piping in water so that it becomes flexible and easy to mold?

Could ypu use anything as your core inside the piping? Could I use a piece of metal rod folded into a shape I want?

hello, please take a video of how you sharpen the tool for chamfering the end face-a cruiser or a creaser thank you

That looks so good. I started making things with leather thanks to you and Little King Goods. I just started cutting out the pieces to make my first messenger bag and I'm fucking terrified! I thought this would make a much better edge than I originally planned. You make this look so easy! Lol I think when I get home from work I'm gonna try this and see if I can figure this out on scrap and work my way up.

Hi! Can this be stitched with a walking foot? Is there a small enough pressure foot to get into that edge right next to the piping?? I've got a tech-sew coming soon and eager to experiment...

Спасибо за подробное объяснение

What sort of glue do you use? It seems so sticky instantly. My contact cement takes for ever to get tacky to the point it could hold itself down.

Hey Eric great vid brother. I figure you would appreciate my glass fiber optic light piping. We integrate into leather seating to light up your welt

What kind of glue are you using here? I have issues with glue failing when I'm pulling out stitching chisels, especially with thicker leather (and I already polished my chisels). Your glue seems to hold way better.

I put little gum only on the edge when I'm doing that to synthetic leather, but im having a difficult when using sewing machine

Great video! But now I need to see how to do the fade!! :P

my edges are getting folds in them as i bend. do you think that could be low quality leather(it's not bad but not the best), or just lack of practice?

what sort of glue are you using?

What size leather cord do you use for piping

you make leather handbags is also quite impressive. And I specialize in making pu leather handbags. Simili

The “push” advice is what I needed to hear. Thanks

I don't know if doing straight shots and leather work go together well? =)

So.. You'd always GLUE the piping before sewing? I'm sewing piping onto the top of a car seat back (without gluing first) and it's drifting all over the place ! Thanks.. What type of glue are you using?

Where do you purchase the leather cording to use inside the piping?

Для быстрого и ровного нанесения клея можно использовать тонкий малярный скотч).

What glue are you using?!

Looks easy till you try it. Lots of patience for this one. ✌️

👍thnx
