When Chuck’s inner costume nerd comes out it makes for some of my favorite projects and some of my favorite build along videos to just watch.

Chuck is like the Bob Ross of leather work! I love watching your videos while I tool around the kitchen table making wallets and book covers!

Oh, boy, that was fun! I love the long project videos. Absolutely beautiful piece!!

Love this video! I think I may modify it for my modern pistol and hunting/camping knife. I'm always amazed at the stamps you put together and they look great; I've started trying different combos myself.

Made one today after watching the video, modified for my needs As always, a great tutorial, thank you for sharing!

I always love your videos, but as I am currently making a renaissance inspired sword belt for my rapier, this one was extra fun to watch! Excellent work as always thanks for sharing.

Didnt realize you guys were so close. Gonna have to stop in the shop. With my PIRATE BALDRIC!

Please do!

I learned ... can't remember where .. but .. use RED gel pens to mark leather since most dyes are red-ish based ... they pretty much blend in.

Placing all those happy little Chicago screws.

Very good video Chuck as always. And the project was great. You made it look easy

Man! Chuck is the best!

I smiled through all this video, and ended up with a big grin at the end :D Love it!

Love the videos man! You guys got me into leatherworking about a year ago! (Love your guys' diamond chisels)

That's awesome, thank you so much!

No freaking way!! This is an awesome project video! I've been meaning to make a new pirate Baldric cause my Dennix replicas aren't very secure in mine

Perfect timing with this project! I am about to start a couple of pirate baldrics for my local Renaissance festival. Thank you for this!

Love the stamping, you make it look like anyone can make this and indeed thay can, thanks for your wonderful videos.

What we don’t see on the videos most of the time is the years of thinking, planning, and test panels Chuck has to draw on. It does look easy once you’ve built up that library. It’s why I’m thankful so many of the skilled leather crafters are making videos now.

Love these videos too, very helpful. Thanks a million for doing them!

Fantastic! Excellent project.

I love your videos! They always get me fired up to work on leather!

That is so cool!! Great work!

It is interesting to see how other people do things. I always punch my holes after all of the dye and top coat are done. The holes tend to collect the liquids, and they sometimes end up going where I don't want them to go.

Yes, you could absolutely wait and punch the holes after dyeing. Those areas seemed to dry very evenly with the rest of this project but it's definitely something to keep an eye on.

"You've just got a pretty stick." I laughed out loud and startled my dogs...

I like the belt that you added.

Yep, a flintlock on a rainy day = mud in the pan. Even a "cow's knee" isn't perfect, but it's a good solution for both flint and caplock pistols (and long guns). As to a use for the punchouts, mixed with bits of cut up leather lace, they make a model railroad scenery addition. Ground cover and other uses.

Outstanding! 👌🏻👍🏻

give all the waist cuts and hole punchouts to a friend who has a garden who composts it is the ultimate recycling of the leather.

So happy this is finally out!!! I needed this for last month's Ocean City Maryland Ren Faire! I did come up with a baldric but just from two old woven belts join together with a specialty double post buckle I got off of eBay. I really like the double post buckle but I don't know how to use it properly detached two ends of a belt. It almost seems just decorative so I might attach it to the front of a ball drink and put the real buckle on the back? Funny how voice to text here's Baldrick, ball drink, hears. Wish we could share pictures in the comments on KZread videos. I'll just have to ask advice on the fan page. Hi everybody from Pottstown PA near the PA Ren Faire

Chuck, I know it is not leather crafting, but would love a video of you doing chainmail.

‘Bravo-Zulu!’ To Johnny Tango!!

👍

Chuck...!

Could the frog be attached to a leather scabbard? Great video, as always.

What about using a flat blade sewing/lacing punch to make the holes for those little nickel spot?

@WeaverLeatherSupply

That should work! As long as the punch blade isn't wider than the tine of the spot.

looking to make a simple slim jim style holster with fold over belt loop for my Kentucky flintlock pistol. would like to completely cover and protect the muzzle while keeping it open. any tips on the pattern?

What are you using for that design template material?

Hi Kimberly! That is our pattern sheet: www.weaverleathersupply.com/products/pattern-sheet-24-x-45?_pos=1&_sid=6040b01ca&_ss=r
