If I could only get people so enthusiastic about taking their country back!!!

This video might be from four years ago, but I keep coming back to it for a refresher as I continue to learn. Chuck is an amazing teacher, someone give this man a raise please.

LOVED this video!!! I think videos like this are justified to run longer. Keep looking for more of your videos

That's something I've struggled with. Good to see your tips and some options I haven't considered! I'd like to see another wet molding video with more ideas in the near future.

Easiest guy to learn from.....hands down.......thank you for these videos!

Excellent as always!! You never disappoint Chuck!

I click the like button before the subject starts because Chuck sounds always awesome and fun!!

Such a useful video. My heart is flying with inspiration for all of the new projects I can start! Wet forming is a whole new world of leather craft for me!

I love it. Thank you for showing a couple different techniques for molding.

"More mold, less talk" got me :-).

Stumbled upon your channel while figuring out the best way to do leather cover bookbinding. great teaching, clear voice, common words, easy to follow instructions. Thank you.

Chuck, I just love you. I love your energy, your enthusiasm and your guidance. Thank you so much, for all these great videos.

I can’t wait to try this out! The cost of buying a mold for wet forming is crazy. I imagine if you were mass producing then it might be cost effective but with your methods they seem like they could last just as long if taken care of AND you get the benefit of personalization. You are awesome sir and Weaver Leather has a true treasure in in you.

Good one Chuck looks easier than I thought thanks 🤠👍

Thanks for the great info I am going to pick up some wood dowels for my next project. Great tip

This guy is awesome. Yes, love his enthusiasm! Very informative, 2 thumbs up!

Also I wanted to say, talking is completely welcome. The best teachers I've ever had were the ones that talked a lot. As they were teaching something they would unconsciously give you little insights that they screwed up, or know of a short cut etc. The stories about other people were also things that you would learn from. You probably don't even realize that you are doing it so talk away.

These vids are platinum. Thanks you.

Merci, j'adore la façon dont tu dédramatises le moulage du cuir sans se prendre la tête avec des recettes compliquées, juste un peu d'imagination et de bon sens. Et surtout sentir la vie et les possibilités de la matière. Cela donne vraiment envie. J'ai fait un essai et suis devenu immédiatement fan.

Another great video Chuck you are definitely a teacher

Love the way you explain things - makes it very easy to follow and exciting for a beginner. Thank you

Man, did you just open a whole new world of creativity for me, Chuck. For example, in keeping with your pouch demonstration it occurred to me to enclose all four sides for a shadow box effect. Fasten plexiglas, etc., (Chicago screws), to the flat sides and there you go! Thank you.

Thanks Chuck, English is not my native language but I think that you have great communications skills and although you speak fast your diction is perfect and I can understand everything you say without a glitch. Your skills, knowledge and your communications skills makes you a superb teacher best of them all. Keep the enthusiasm and passion spicing all presentations. Thanks again.

That is so helpful. The method I was about to try was much more complicated and the results looked the same. Brilliant! Thanks from the UK

Thank you for your video. I started making multi tool sheaths and knife sheaths. I made molds using wood, a lot of thought went into making them and turned out to be a very functional. I learned to use my fingers to push leather onto mold before putting it into mold. I will subscribe to your channel, I'm sure you teach me more😎

Again new learn thank you sir chuck and weader

Great vid chuck, thanks

That is awesome! :) Thank you so much for doing this video. I have an original leather cavalry scabbard from WW1, meant to be used with a 12ga Winchester 1897 "trench gun." I have never seen another one anywhere. It is probably still useable for re-enactments, but I wouldn't want to risk damaging it in any way. After watching your video, I feel fairly confident that I could make another to use with my trench gun :) The scabbard itself is just two long pieces, formed to fit the gun, which would be easy to do using a carved block of wood. If anything, the various straps and buckles would be the difficult part.

Thank you for this and your other videos! Fabulous detail for newbies like me.

Again thanks so much for the fun and groovy video. 😁

Hi Chuck, Terrific and informative. Thanks. I'd really like to see how you embed wire or other raised designs under a wet form mold. Also when and how to we do add stamping, like initials, onto a dried wet form. And longer Leather Elements videos please, Chuck, so we can follow a piece from wet form, to stamping, to dyes and paint, and adding harware to the finished product.

Lee! Thanks for the comments! I am so glad you’re happy with the videos! Look back to a Leather Element where I show the molds and you’ll see a mold with some baling wire. This is just glued on with some white glue. It doesn’t need to be super solid since we’re just pressing down on it (and so you can remove it or add something else), but, it does need to be somewhat secure so it doesn’t move while we’re forming. Since you asked I’ll get a video together on this one! On adding some design you can stamp while the leather is on the form as long as it’s a flat surface. Adding some minor tooling or stamping can be done prior to forming but it can work out if pressed too hard. kzread.info/dash/bejne/iq11x8xmlbCeaZc.html

This is a very good video. Thanks

My hands hurt so much I've been dreading the holster I want to build. I bought a vacuum food saver very cheap from Walmart and a BlueGun in the shape of the pistol I plan to shape onto so it doesn't meet wet leather. This video gave me great ideas on what to do to fit in my finer details. Thank you Sir!

Good info. Thanks!

Great, Thanks

yes this guy is quick and upbeat :)

Really happy to have come across your posts as your piece on wet molding solved a rather unusual problem. I recently picked up a 1920's cast iron hand water pump. My wife thought I was mad and I'd never actually be able to use it! Taking it apart I discovered some broken pieces of hard, what was this? Then I realised that the pump shaft had a metal valve and the odd bits were hardened crumbly leather ring seal. I have some 5mm leather but how to produce the cup shaped leather seal that is on the end of the shaft. Well a wooden pole sanded smooth acted as the former and the mold was just a jubilee clip gradually tightened around the wet worked leather worked perfectly. just had to cut the hole in the centre to fix it to the shaft. I have a working pump, thanks! Pity I can't load some images you could have a look! Keep up the posts really great lessons here. Chris

You missed a nice little detail Chuck, if you use a mold like that, it'll allow you to do some stamping while it's locked in place and still wet! No shortage of projects or details we can work on. Absolutely love your channel. So much fun and you have an energy and passion for the craft like no other.

I do a lot of bent lamination in woodworking and I've found a ton of similarities between the two. I use MDF because it's easier to shape. Once I'm done I cover the MDF surface in packing tape to seal it up. I don't really spend a lot of time handworking except to rough it in, I just make a negative like you did with the 2x2 but use the same MDF covered in packing tape to push on top of it and clamp it down while it dries. Works great.

Thank you now I’m ready to work on my bobber seat .nice video

thank you, I just learned how to wet form.

A video a chaps would be cool. There’s a few out there on getting the measurements, bur they don’t really go in depth on actually using them to make your pattern. Thank you for another great lesson.

Great informative video! I’ve been doing this for years but I’m sure lots don’t know how. You might show how you can take an object like a gun or something that water will harm, and wrap it with several layers of cling wrap to protect it, and then hand form leather over it to make a holster!

fantastic

You are amazing Such enthusiasm wish you was my teacher

Love the videos! Chuck is the man! Hey, is it ok to wet form the same piece of leather TWICE? To perhaps correct or deepen its intended form? Thanks again!

I’d love to see a leather element describing the different types of veg tan (harness vs strap vs bridle vs holster) & chrome/oil tanned leather and outline the different aspects of the leather. Does it tool? Does it mold? How do you wet it? What can you use it for? What are the limitations? What do the different terms mean? Thanks!

You tube algorithms dictate that 10 minutes is the best for videos to be "pushed" into the general feeds. I would suggest Chuck fill in the 1-2 minutes with a sponsor plug. Let's get more people interested in leather crafting. Hope to see more of you Chuck. Cheers

I just recently decided to get into leather craft. Unfortunately I can’t afford any tools or leather haha, but thanks for the great tutorial to help me gain some knowledge in the meantime!
