  Can you share what dremel bits do you use for the edge burnishing?

•

  I made these ones myself. You just need a straight bit with a slot in the middle. I cut the sandpaper in strips and wrap it around the bit.

  What if you have a wider edge beveler to sharpen?

• 
  @NorfolkHandmade9 күн бұрын

  You can use a stropping block for the back side. The top side of the edge beveler, cut a piece of leather to the same inside dimension of the beveler. Or you can buy an edge beveler sharpening block…lol

  I love your willingness to help others interested in leather work as a hobby, but if someone couldn’t figure out this workaround on their own and within 20 seconds of thought, which is a very generous time allowance for such a task, they should strap on their helmet and walk to the end of the driveway bc the short bus is waiting to take them to adult Ed classes like every other day

  This an interesting response. Let me ask you, how long should a take take to figure before you are no longer considered to be “on the short bus”? 20 seconds? 30 seconds? A minute? Also, who is the one to determine this time frame and where should we record this for easy reference? Maybe you can create this reference for the community so that we can ensure only the smartest among use are participating in this craft. The last thing I want to do is provide helpful information to people that “ride the short bus”.

  Ive been looking at getting a clicker press. The thing is you cant tweak and change your dies without buying a whole new set. With this laser, you have unlimited possibilities and youre not spending much more than you would a clicker. The xtool is a no brainer for me.

•

  This is a big factor when considering a laser for leatherwork. It’s a huge benefit and a good option if you aren’t committed to a specific design. That said, the speed of clicker and die is unmatched.

  Great job with the edge finishing, although the total of the layers is a little on the thick side. They could have done with skiving down to 0.6-0.8mm so that total thickness was in the 1.4mm-1.6mm range

•

  For sure, I was going for the multi layered look. If I was edge painting I would skive it down. For this style wallet a 3-6mm edge is my preference, gives a nice sold edge to see the layers.

  Nice representation of the differences between stitch spacing and thread sizes. There's a lot more to the end result that maybe you could cover on a future video or videos. The type of thread also matters. Round, linen thread versus flat, braided polyester, for example. When I use them, they yield different results even when using the same irons. Since you asked for feedback, I prefer the appearance of the 3.38mm irons and the 0.45mm or 0.55mm thread. To me, there's way too much hole left visible in the 5mm and 0.45mm/0.55mm combination. Holes are necessary, but I feel better when they are less prominent. I also would have liked to have seen the backside of the samples. Both sides matter. And of course, stitching technique matters. So in the end, good stitching is a synergy of an array of products and techniques. Not easy to explain in a short time. That's why Nigel Armitage released the 4 part series on saddle stitching, definitely worth watching to be able to really understand what goes into saddle stitching and why. I enjoy your content, keep it up!

• 
  @NorfolkHandmade3 ай бұрын

  Thanks for the feedback. I tried to keep this one simple because I think a lot of people drastically over complicate the matter. That’s why I left out the actual technique, that’s for another video. I personally think the vast majority of people don’t need to consider all the variables that are covered in Neil’s video. I think it’s videos like that that make new leatherworks think it’s more complicated than it is. When I started out Neil was a valuable resource. Know that I do this full time I realize how simple it can be, there’s no need to overcomplicate the matter and a 4 hour series on it is very much over complicating the matter even if it’s perfectly accurate…which of course it is.

• 
  @Ray.J3 ай бұрын

  @@NorfolkHandmade I agree that sometimes too much information can be overwhelming. Nigel's video series is more for those wanting to take that deeper dive. You can have success by keeping things simple, no doubt. However, it helps to understand, really understand the process in order to make corrections. Sometimes folks stuggle and have no clue as to why. Nigel's videos explain the why. That's all. Maybe you can do a short video covering the basics of saddle stitching as you do it. You do it quite well.
