Hey Ryan, I've watched several of your uploads and am sincerely impressed with the quality of your videography. It's pretty obvious you bring a photographers eye to your work. You have a great talent and your leather projects are inspiring. Thank you so much for sharing.

Man, this has to be the best stitching presentation out there. Good job

This tutorial portion is so great! Thank you! I’ve watched so many videos that don’t show the beginning. This is perfection.

Hi Ryan, thank you for the video. I took up leather crafting after seeing you in Tuque. Iv'e always like making things by hand and thought I can do this. It's fun, relaxing, and I get a great sense of accomplishment. And it may also bring in some income. I've been struggling with my stitching but after seeing this video and making some adjustments to my hole punching my stitching is so much better! Thanks so much man. If you ever do a studio tour I'll be there. Thanks again.

Thank you for the help in the way you presented the way the stitching was done; and the awesome hole punch.

Ryan, I did purchase several sets of Sinabroks Stitching irons. (Different stitch counts) Based on your review (and a couple of others) You are absolutely correct. These irons are the most beautiful and wonderful to use for making stitching holes. I cannot recommend them highly enough. Well, you did. Thank you. I gain a tremendous amount of information and confidence from your videos.

Love your videos ! Congrats for your works from France (i will begin leather work, your videos give me so much motivation, many thanks)

Learned a lot. I came over from Peter's video and am totally interested n leather work now. Thank you and look forward to more reviews and how to videos

Your videos are teaching me so much. Thank you and keep them coming!!

I have watched so many videos on saddle stitching and just couldn't get it right of when to thread over the needle, what direction etc..... This one did it perfectly for me...... thank you so much It was so good i had to subscribe

Wonderful teaching. I have two adult children interested in leather crafting. My dad did some years ago, beginner, but before you tube. He would have loved this.

Such a great instructional. Thank you so much for this!

Amazing videos bro. I’m diving right into the craft and your videos are so helpful and informative. Thanks & Keep up the exceptional work✌🏽

So satisfying to watch !

Thanks to you I learned how to stitch both side slanting stitching. Thank you very much and keep shoting useful videos.

Thanks for this review! Can you please do a studio tour video? I am about to dedicate a room for my own sewing/leather craft studio and would love to see how yours is organized for workflow efficiency.

Hey thanks so much! That's a great idea. I'll work on a studio tour video. 🙌🏼🙌🏼

I GET IT! Ryan looks your tying an overhand knot with each stitch, hiding it in the leather and maintaining constant tension throughout the stitching. And the care making sure each stitch slants up. Skill bro, skill...

Thanks 🙏 for this video . Thumbs up 👍🏽. I was waiting this review. I hope you do this with all equipment you use .

Thanks for the video. I always thought I was using a pricking iron from Tandy Leather. My mind was blown when I found out I was using a diamond chisel. 🤯 I know you have made a few videos about stitching, but could you show the difference between them? Do you ever use a circle punch for stitching?

Hi, thank you for sharing. It is very useful.👏👍

Thank you man good explaining

Thanks for tutor. From Russia with respect.

Thanks for this. I noticed your pricking iron in another video and I was wondering what kind of tools you use. I could tell that it was a high quality tool.

Great videos for those of us just starting out in this wonderful craft! Quick question....pricking iron vs pricking punch? I understand that the punch actually removes a bit of material and I do love the look of the stitching you've done on this video. Is there a circumstance where you may use a stitching punch? Thanks!

Awesome! Would be good to get your input on finishing a stitch.. i did my first stitch with this video but in the end realized you go back 3 holes right?

I started leather working as a hobby, made a few wallets for family and friends, knife sheaths and longsword scabbards and low-quality Chinese pricking irons from ebay messed up a lot of my initial work.

I know this video is old but I will say as a newer person using better irons changes everything. I got a box set of tools from Amazon to start. After 5 months I bought new irons, not sinabrooks, but it totally leveled up my stuff.

Hi Ryan, what size mm do you recommend and what about the prongs? I was thinking of getting one 2 prongs and one 10 prongs to start. By the way, I have no experience with leathercraft but I recently fell in love with it and I'm working on my tools list. Anyway, I love your work!!! Thanks for sharing your experience & knowledge to all of us.

Ryan, thanks so much for doing this. I’ve watched several videos and have checked out a few books on saddle stitching. None have been as clear and thorough as this one. Really appreciate it. Love your channel.

Thanks for the info, what size where you using in this video? New at leather work still learning about the spacing size in mm 😅

You get great quality from KS for slant irons too. Supposedly Sinabroks was started by a KS Blade Punch employee that took their secrets.

Would love to see a little tutorial on how to use your pricking irons when going around a corner ( round or square)

Sooo therapeutic

Sinabroks stitch hole punches are so much better than a watch hole iron. You can get smaller holes at most convenient spacing. Plus varying number of holes. Not limited to 4 on an iron. I use them for my 1mm thread on thick leather seams. Perfect.

I have been a traditional leathercrafter since 1970's they never had tools like this no youtube either, im proud to be self taught, i appreciate your every stitch, cheers donna

These pipsqueaks have no clue how hard it was to learn anything before the interwebs, or to be seen by ANYONE... they just don't know! Illustration: We do custom leather, we have a cosplay customer, he is currently developing his Thor, we made a belt for him (shin guards next, then chest plate), he picks up the finished belt, he loves it, shoots a few pics... three hours later I'm getting ready for bed and I see a text I missed, the creator of the Thor Ragnorak character says the belt looks awesome... THREE HOURS and our work is in front of the designer of the character. Before the internet, you could work a lifetime and never be seen by people of prominence. It's amazing now, so fast.

Great video! What size thread do you use?

@Littlekinggoods Molotow Makes an Empty Marker Product that might work with the dyes.

Awesome video. Love the production value! I am curious however how you get the flat heads in line with your stitch line? With diamond heads you just stick the point into the stitch line. I would think with the flat head irons you place the corner of the chisel tooth on the line - however it would appear you have the stitch line in the centre of the teeth??

Great video! What thickness thread do you use?

Hi Ryan, I'm starting up a small leather business and I have watched your videos for a while. You do amazing work and make even better tutorials and I appreciate it. I just ordered my first sinabrok pricks and I was wondering what type of thread you use paired with the sinabroks. I currently use John James needle and tiger thread but I've been having issues with the needles going through the thread and I'm assuming my thread may be to thick.

What size spacing did you choose for yours? Also what size thread are you using?

Hi Ryan, thanks for the cool video. Just did my first stiches tonight which are not looking as awesome as yours yet. Think there is a steep learning cuvre to take to get there. Are you waxing your thread or are you just using it as it comes from the roll? Best, Michael

Nice tutorial. I've seen on the site that there "Stitching Punch"-es as well. That seems to be making round holes instead of this diagonal. Is it used for different parts or different items or it is just styling of the stitches?

Round is best as there is even stress distribution and less chance of tear or damage.

the soldering iron is an impressive solution

Hi Ryan, great videos, I'm ready to buy some Sinabroks pricking irons for mostly small work, wallets, small bags, etc., I was looking at 1, 2, 6, and 12 prongs, what would you recommend ?.. Thanks in advance, August

I want to make draw blade, axe and knife sheaths in organic plant based leather. How thick should the leather be? Do I need rivets and why? I have no tools yet and am trying to learn what to buy. These pricking irons are the biggest problem. How many stitches per inch should I use? What other tools are a must have for only this type of project? Thanks!! Is there one great book that covers it all? PS I am in Germany so shipping can be a problem.

Just got mine in the mail today and I was quite underwhelmed by the packaging gold foil aside it was pretty weak so I'll have to make something to store it in.

Great video. Thanks. Just out of interest are pricking irons designed to go through leather all the way? I see that pricking irons are tapered, thicker at the top and thinner at the bottom. This means that holes on the backside are smaller than holes on the front side. I am using diamond stitching chisels, which are the same thickness throughout their length. This means that the holes are the same size on both front and back. Which would you recommend?

@LittleKingGoods

3 жыл бұрын

I really like the Sinabroks. A very clean hole in the front and back. The diamond chisels are terrible. I used them when I first started and it just completely ruins the leather out the backside.

Hello! I admire your work and videos. Tell me, can you make a video on how to sharpen a synabrox punch? I am sure you have a unique technique. I will be very grateful to you! Thank! Good luck in job!

Which mm did u get for the pricking iron??

Sweet video man. What tooth count did you get? I’m getting the 10 tooth iron and debating on the 1 or 2 tooth iron

@LittleKingGoods

5 жыл бұрын

I have the 10 and 2 tooth. The 1 tooth is basically an awl.

Which pricking iron measure do you use? There are from 3 mm to 5.4 mm.

1 important thing i noticed is when you pull the needles, if at the end the one in the left hand is pulled all the way first, the thread stays where it should be. I hope someone understood me and i helped ;d

New to hand stitching. Not a fan of using an awl, is there a chisel or iron that will make a BB it enough hole so I don't have to awl the wholes aswell

I notice there are several options of spacing for the pins for sinabroks ranging from 3 - 5.4mm. What size spacing do you use in your videos?

contact cement. Be it weldwood from home depot, barge, Tanner's bond, or a pleathora of other contact cement options. Many people have started to move toward the water based ones for the lack of fumes and they stick almost as well as the more noxious ones.
