Preparing Leather For stamping, creating a border, using a basketweave stamp.
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In this video, we discuss how to quickly prepare leather for stamping or tooling. We will use a set of wing dividers to draw a border on our project and then will cut that border with a swivel knife. Next we will use a basket stamp on the entire bordered area and then use a camouflage tool as a border stamp.

This guy has a nice teaching style. Very informative with an easy kind of down home feel that makes it enjoyable to watch. I'm a subscriber and fan. Keep em coming.
thank you for explaining why you put the tape on the back, I've seen so many ppl do that but they didn't say why, i did my first stamp and i could have sore it stretched, well, watching your video I finally realized that it stretched when I stamped it, thankfully its not noticeable =)
I've never seen someone cut the border like that, but I really like the depth it adds!
Great video, you're explaining every step very clearly . Keep your videos coming
You are a fantastic teacher, sir! Very funny, very human! I'm loving this :D
Very good teaching! Thank you, that's the best I've seen basket weave explained.
Thank you for all your work.
Sup Aaron great job on the video doing the basket stamping and border stamp looks awesome as always Aaron thanks have a great day in the shop Aaron and Jeannie Sue my friends peace out Aaron!🇺🇸
Super oglądam Cie od dłuższego czasu jesteś jeden z champions na KZread pozdrawiam z Polski
Well slap me silly! I was trying to stamp my basket weave without the full overlap and always had to go back and clean up the connections. Now I am going to border stamp everything in my shop!! Thank you!!
I was just messing with a basket weave stamp tho a morning for the first time. I thought you overlap both straight pieces to make a tighter weave. This does look nicer. Excellently timed.
Thought I could do this without a KZread tutorial lol..... Glad I tried on scrap leather before using the prepared pieces for the wallet I'm making because my lines are HORRIBLE 😂 Thanks for the tips Edit: That border around the maker mark was craaaaaazyyyyy!!! Good job!!
It appears that the angle at which you are using is set at 45°. I thank you for your clear and precise instructions. I will subscribe and save this video for future reference.
Your video is really amazing and helpful! I was trying to make a video about leather crafts and hope to refer to some video clips from your video. I will cite the source so don't worry! Thanks a lot if you are ok with that.
Good video. It looks like you didn't start border stamp right in the corner which is critical. I'm just starting and boy I've had my issues and border stamping is one... where exactly to start, do you ever overlap, fading out in proper places, etc. This video helped a lot with that. Thanks.
Nice thanks !
great video. what size is your makers stamp? i am wanting to get a makers stamp made, and yours looks like the perfect size. thank you for all of the great content.

This one is about 1.125" tall. I have a larger one for other things
What basket weave stamp is that? I like it
What weight maul do you use for the stamping? I am not getting good results with my current one (10 oz) and having to strike it harder than id like. I am wondering if a heavier one would make a difference.
Hi Aaron - thanks for the great video! Any chance you can post links to the stamps you were using? There are so many different options out there, I never know where to start.

Good video! I am wondering if you will share the brand of the basketweave tool you are using? I have two basketweave tools and they don't seem to make the deep impression that your tool does.

Mine is made by Steel Stamps, INC. Theirs are the best out there but they're not cheap.
Could you use a vertical thumb print carefully as your border stamp to fade into the bevel

Yes, just being careful to keep it even
This is the second video I’ve seen you use that spray bottle. Do you sell them? If not where do I get one?

It’s called a fine mist sprayer. Beauty supply stores sell them or you can find them online.
Nice work. What's the thickness of leather are you using?

Absolute beginer here, would it not be easier to stamp the border and around you maker mark before doing the basket weaving? Have a solid boundry from the beginning.

Which Basket Stamp are u using?

It's a Barry King rope basket. Probably the 1.5 size
I have found that the handles on most stamps are not large enough. Also, I would like to "index" my tools by adding a flat that is parallel with the tool mark or in this case with the long sides of the stamp. Does anyone else have issues with small handle tools? I tend to not be able to keep aligned and tool will rotate slightly.

Got a tip for you. Make up a bag of deer hide and fill it with ill #7 lead shot.

Then put it on the edge of your project to hold it down as you stamp it.

That’s a great tip, I’ve used weights before but just never do when tooling because I turn my work often and it just slows me down. Just about every tooler I know uses one though.
