    This is a model tutorial. Articulate but not wordy explanations + clear videography + great design + a teacher's sense of pacing and storytelling. It's a rare combination, thank you for the time you put into this. Just bought you a coffee, keep up the good work.

    Every time I watch your videos I feel like I'd really enjoy leather work but just never have time. I'd love to be able to make my own accessories. Specifically for my hand tools. Very clean job man.

    Really cool. Definitely going to try this. But was wondering if you had any idea how to make a adjustable camera strap. I’ve wanted to learn to make one but don’t want to waste good leather if (when) I mess up

    Thank you so much and I hope you do! I haven't made an adjustable one, but my buddy Morley made a video of him making one that maybe will help you out, here's the link kzread.info/dash/bejne/a6Kj3MWyZsqTkbg.html
