Nicely done....again! Beautiful work!!!

I have done some leather work myself but you sir make it look effortless. I applaud your craftsmanship and your attention to detail. Every cut you make looks perfect, I have a hard time cutting a straight line with a straight edge. I also love the way you shoot your video's it is so soothing and calming its as though I'm meditating.

So simple so beautiful

Love your work and your videos.....just mega !

I really enjoy seeing the projects you create, and a glimpse of the steps to how they are constructed. I also really enjoy the "style" or way you are doing your videos. I really like it ! Just bought the pattern and going to give it a try! Thanks for all the great videos !

Thank you for sharing the process. I'll give it a try 😍

Lovely thanks from London 😻

I like how you have the sandpaper flat on the table to get a flatter burnished edge. Thank you so much for that tip. not sure why I never thought of it before!

As always, very nice!

Made this for the first time yesterday. My first folding wallet. Awesome pattern. Definitely recommend as a first folding wallet. Easy to follow and good practice for first T pockets. Why did you use the dividers on the outside too? Any specific reason when punched from inside? Is it a line for the thread to sit in?

Is this wallet for sale? Id love to purchase one.

I bought the pattern and am currently making this wallet. There seems to be one problem with the pattern, though. The "Top Pocket Guide" in the pattern is not like the one used in the video.

@SteveGarelick

I have the exact same problem. One side is nice and straight and the other side can get wavy. I think it's the fact that I may not be keeping the stitching chisel perfectly vertical. Would love to hear how does it; my guess is that it's just practice.

How much for the dark brown one?

Need that with a money clip inside.

Awesome video, going to purchase the pattern right now! Got a quick question for you. Does doubling up on the back panel piece serve any function other than aesthetics? It seems like it makes the wallet stronger, but also more difficult to fold/close. Is this step optional? Thanks!

@Corter

5 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Doing a liner means the entire piece is grain side, there's no flesh showing - it's aesthetically super nice, but longevity wise it's a bonus because the flesh side will degrade faster than the grain side if you're taking cards in and out often. If you use thick leather you'll risk the piece being hard to close, but if you use thin leather you'l be fine - we use 3oz leather throughout, so doubling up with a good solid glue job means the body is 6oz which is just thick enough for some structure without being bulky :)

Corter Leather Hi! Thanks for the information, I really appreciate it! I purchased the pattern and I have some natural veg tan ready to go. Just about perfect, it’s 3/4oz. So with the grain side being folded back on itself (inside liner), should I do anything as far as conditioning or oil? I’ve never made a lined piece yet, so I’m just curious if something like that ever starts cracking or requires anything to help with wear n’ tear. I’ll put them together with contact cement. 👍🏿 Thanks!

Corter Leather Corter Leather Hi guys! I have one more question if you don’t mind. I’m about half way through, and ready for the final stitching. For a project like this where you are stitching in one continuous run, do you start your stitching run with a back stitch or only finish the run with back stitching? If so, how many back stitches would you typically do on a wallet like this? I couldn’t really tell from the video. I’m familiar with stitching things like card wallets, where you can back stitch at the beginning and the end of the run since there’s a break in the run. But for something like this where you’ll be starting and ending at the same hole, it seems like that first/last hole would be really full if you started with a back stitch? Thanks!

What's that chalk you used to sharpen the tool called?

I’d like to own a Westin vertical chestnut leather do you sell it and if you do how much do you charge

What glie did u used

What type of leather is the darker color? is it english bridle?

I bought the pattern and the template to mark the top of the pocket A, you cut it above the line that is on the pattern to cut out, which makes sense… But the pattern the only cut line will make it the same size as pocket B, and it should be the size (height) so you can mark where the top of pocket A goes?? Right?? So it’s basically a guessing game as to where to place pocket A

Late to this party... but still relevant question. When I use my chisel like that to make the stitching holes after about 2 layers, it is almost impossible to remove the chisel, the friction in the leather holds it so firmly I can barely remove it with pliers. All the movement just destroys the shape of the holes. I have given up on some pieces as I had to cut the chisel out and throw the work piece away. I have tried sharpening, and waxing them. The only way I have been able to work is to make holes in one layer of leather, and then push an awl through the rest of the way, but it doesnt look very nice.

@ephraim9332

Жыл бұрын

If your using leather thicker than 3-4 oz its too thick especially for wallets. You might also want to try a different chisel set like KemonCrafts pricking irons.

this might be a stupid question, i don't know anything about leather craft, but can things like this be made without the rubber cement or contact cement or whatever the bonding adhesive is?

@Corter

5 жыл бұрын

Not a stupid question! You could in theory pre-punch all the holes on the individual pieces and line them up to stitch them together, but it would be adding a very unnecessary level of difficulty to the process when a bit of glue makes the whole thing go 10x faster (and makes for a much more tidy final result). There are eco-friendly leather glues that can be used, you can even use Elmer's school glue to act as a third hand if fumes are an issue.
