Four Feathers Tooled Leather Belt
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In this video, Daniel uses two of our Hermann Oak Natural Strap Leather Belt Blanks to create this unique Four Feathers Tooled Belt. This project may look intimidating, but all you really need are your basic carving and tooling techniques and a bit of assembly. You can really simplify things by using pre-cut belt blanks like Daniel did, and by using the free printable pattern available at the link listed below!

To fill the bottle, go to a farm supply or tractor supply and get a 55cc syringe body. Cut the tip a bit shorter to have a wider opening. Such the Tokonole into the syringe then use that to transfer it to your bottle. You can return the extra to the tokonole bottle and you can seperate the plunger from the main body to clean it / run it through the dishwasher.

I , also, use the syringe for white glue, gum trag., and mixing dyes (to get different colors). Great advise.
So what do you think? Should Weaver make the "Founding member of the 'I hate skiving club' - Weaver leather Supply" shirts?

Watching the outside tine of the wing divider is a great tip.
Try putting a token oil in a Ziploc sandwich baggie and cutting off the very corner like a little pastry bag
Daniel, I have never thought of myself as a fan. However, in my mind you are the absolute best and I cant get enough of your instruction and admiring your work. So I now label my self as a FAN waiting for your next video!
Love you suggestion on the needle bottles. I been using them for several years and the work great. Thanks for sharing this tip with others.
Easy to follow and thorough. Thanks for sharing Daniel.
The belt looks awesome. Great job.
Put your tokonole in a sandwich bag then clip the corner and use it like cake piping bag. Then pipe the extra back into your original container

I like the fast pace vid for those of us who are past the newbee stage.
Great work and very good details on questions I definitely would have had. I like that it was a longer project that could be done over a few days when you have time. Keep em coming. And I cant wait to get into that new retail store!!!!!
You make cutting the swivel in so easy. It's not! One of the things I struggle with to get those lines neat and accurate. Love the amount of info you manage to get over to us. Thank you

The swivel knife is just a matter of time with the tool in your hand and practicing the right thing. You'll get there...just keep at it.

Very nice belt!
Great Job
Great video, Daniel. Thanks for the tip about how to slick the back of the belt, I will have to try that. It is a lot of skiving; if I do it I will probably cheat and use my belt sander. That pun was completely accidental, but I stand by it.

LOL. Not cheating at all. Use the tools you have that you're proficient with. Good luck with it!
Try squeezing the little bottle (with the cap off) down as much as you can, then put the mouth of the bottle down in the Tokonole and let go. It sucks the Tokonole back up into the bottle. Tap the bottle on the table to settle to the bottom and repeat as necessary! Much easier! :)

Turkey basting syringe. I use one to refill oil bottles too
Yes need the skiving 😅
To get the toconole in the bottle first poor it into a small zip lock bag. Snip a small piece off a corner then squeeze it into the bottle like a piping a cake.
I use a foam brush trimmed down to 1/4" wide. Easier than the bottle and spreads the toko evenly without excess past the edges.

Use a straw to suck some into the straw , then blow it into the bottle. It takes me usually three times.
put a straw in the bottle to allow the air to be displaced while the toko pours in

also you can buy a wooden strap cutter and quit crying bout blanks?
I always dilute mine down with some water and it works fine . Then I use a syringe to fill my bottle.
Squeeze the needle bottle before you put the tokenol in, then dunk the opening in the tokenol. Let the bottle suck up the goop. The only issue is you have a mess on the bottle that you can wipe off and put back into the tokenol container. Other than that, I dunno how to fill those. And because it's so difficult when the tokenol container gets low I gave up using the needle bottle. I think they're great to use, but too difficult to fill
To get the tok in the needle bottle.....use a marinade syringe
Maybe a marinade injector syringe or like a baster.
Squeeze the bottle and stick the needle inside the token oil to where it would suck it in, you won't get as much, but. You'll be able to fill it up without even opening the bottle.
Use a syringe for removing and adding tokonole to your bottle.

If you are going for a white start with a matt white then the normal white. It will cover far better and be brighter that way.

Thats true. Just depends on what you're going for. I typically prefer a muted white over a bright white.

Could you use big syringe to fill the bottle with tokonole?

That was one of my thoughts as well...maybe the kind they use to feed baby birds. The Tokenole is super thick, but its worth a try.
I place my Tokonole bottle upside down inside a medicine bottle. It keeps all the Tokonole at the tip and no shaking necessary
Could try using an oral medication syringe to get it into the needle bottle maybe
