[@arturobzn]

[@salishawheeler76]

That turned out absolutely beautiful. Working for the LORD is a beautiful thing.

[@Jessica-uk5tz]

Absolutely gorgeous. I can’t think of any Bible cover more beautiful than this one. 😍

[@riascraftsandsewing4271]

Absolutely beautiful!! You are blessed with an amazing gift!

[@ThePreacherman9]

I wish I could find a teacher to teach me these things in person this is amazing

[@xombies]

Just when I think man, my leatherworking skills have come a LONG way...here comes Don with that big ball energy to destroy any ounce of confidence I had in my abilities. Absolutely fantastic work as always, dude!

[@gwhand39]

Love your videos Don. Thank you. I’ve been doing leatherwork as a hobby since I was 13. Now I’m 52. I’ve learned so much over the years from guys like you and I just want to say thank you again for the content and the great instruction with the “why” behind the “how”. Appreciate ya brother.

[@SouthBySouthwestPedaler]

To say I am in awe of your talent would be an understatement… absolutely amazing 😮

[@edanthony4131]

I love that...wish I could free hand the details like you do...if I tried that, I'd be used up another cow by now...

[@kristine2534]

Wow I need to purchase this for my 4 new super giant print Holy Bibles💗 Your craftsmanship is stunning to carry something that is extremely special & add this workmanship would be even more beautiful i have never seen a more lovely cover♥️

[@richBev77]

You did a gorgeous job. Its a beautiful cover.

[@davidsheppard1133]

Don that looks like a very worthwhile project ! I really enjoyed it! I’m going to make one for my Bible.

[@oldschooljack3479]

A little reverence for the good book, amazing craftsmanship, shared knowledge, and great music... What's not to like?

[@pinkymacgyver8773]

Thanks for this tutorial 😊 just bought the pattern pack 👍 I'm going to put a wall on the inside instead of pockets, to make a book keepsake box as a gift for a baby shower 😊 thanks again 😊

[@dannymarkgraf34]

that came out awesome. your sketching and tooling is amazing, i hope to one day be even half as good as you are. thank you for the great video.

[@jessicaandino6704]

You Have a beautiful gift God bless you and your family

[@debbiehockaday5183]

I used your pattern and designed my from using a dove. I am very pleased with the outcome. Thanks so much for the video and easy pattern.

[@staceyboyd8236]

Just like the journal cover.... very easy and simple to do. Thanks Don!

[@bla28627]

The craftsmanship is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

[@wendelleg2002]

Don, this was a beautiful tutorial! My grandpa used to tool leather and I'd watch him work when I was a kid. I really enjoyed watching this video, thank you!

[@belindavincent6414]

Amazing talent and gorgeous handywork!! 😍

[@Richard0503]

This is beautiful - you have inspired me to try it!

[@Aikidobear129]

You certainly are a master with the knife- it's similar to watching a Sushi Chef at work.

[@hangingoutwithronwalters4505]

I want to one-day make a Bible Cover for myself. I just subscribed. I look forward what you will be teaching me. Thank you.

[@rickcapps6916]

Great video and product. Thank you for sharing...

[@chrisb5391]

[@spaldingpickers120]

Looking at getting into making Bible covers... this is intimidating lol so so beautiful, awesome work!

[@mariaelenasantiago3313]

That is soooo BEAUTIFUL!!

[@ryandewey7407]

Amazing work!!

[@jamesone17]

Sir…”simple” to me is using a brown grocery paper bag to cover my books. This is highly complicated and requires loads of talent, time, creativity, and tools. God surely blessed you with the talent for sure! Could you please make ME a “simple” Bible cover? 😁

[@JBGIBSON]

Outstanding, as always. I'm off to the website to download this one to go along with the others. Every product I've ordered/downloaded has been excellent--thanks for making these available.

[@franotoole2702]

Epic work as always Don!!!

[@406Montana]

You do amazing work Sir...

[@idahnachona8189]

Wow! Awesome skill

[@joeshmoe1962]

Thanks for the video and great choice of music to go along with it. Where did you find it?

[@brendonchristopherlacroix8730]

Thank you so much! Your videos are so amazing for those of us trying to improve 😘

[@adamgardner4213]

thanks I always enjoy your approach/method to your work

[@kelsjay6163]

I'm going to use this as my late mother's day gift for my Grandma. I already have the design in mind for it. Matter of fact I better get to drawing it so I don't forget and sit like a idiot think,what was my design?

[@kimhand1736]

I love your videos and web site. It has helped so much. Can you do a full video / companion pack on a photo album?

[@teshiaMonique]

Wow!! Praise the Lord❤️

[@mp2331]

[@henrynickolas2655]

Beautiful...

[@OrthodoxJourney359]

I just started doing full Bible rebinds. I have some done on my channel.

[@davestuder7795]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I wonder if it’s possible to hire you to make a very similar cover for a hardback AA Bigbook? I have one that is very sentimental and I don’t wanna tackle it myself. Ty

[@JuanRamirez-it8es]

Thank you for your Great videos Mr Gonzalez, can I buy a bag of your 10 + oz scrap leather for my hobby crafts? shape size and color don't matter, only need 1.5" wide, thanks for your answer

[@juliangonzales2916]

Exelente trabajo Saludos👍👍👍

[@kristinacotten]

This was awesome!

[@larrsyleeds4478]

Oops. Didn't finish my comment before I double checked your video at time-line 4:18. You said some like to use blue tape but you prefered gluing poster board on the front/back panels. That made me think that at some time you would remove the poster board (temp glue?). Then it sounded like you left the poster boards in permanently. So many glues for so many different reasons. Could you clarify the glue used if you planed to remove the boards later OR whether you left the poster boards in the completed project?

[@randysilkscreen4674]

awesome leather work... shoulda got a KJV... Check Acts 8:37 is missing in a NIV. Thanks for all these training videos!

[@larrsyleeds4478]

Good video. Glue? What glue did you use for the temp boards you said you put on the leather sides from start through tooling

[@map7882]

that is some beautiful work can i just buy the covers from you ? I need some for some old dads photo albums I need to fix

[@davewiggins1235]

damn thats a lot of time and beautifully made!

[@jimandjeanboyer4526]

Thanks, Don.

[@smilingdog54]

Have you made a Bible cover that has some sort of strap for keeping it closed?

[@russellwhite8890]

Fantastic

[@Lunablueeyes]

Very nice!

[@kalahsuk6538]

Hey I absolutely love this my Bible is falling apart… Is there any way to buy one of these from you?

[@ParsonFamOutreach]

Amazing videos! Do you take orders?! I WOULD LIKE ONE FOR MY BIBLE

[@BornAgain330]

Brother I don’t hardly ever comment on KZbin and I just got a save not too long ago and born again and getting into God‘s word again pretty deep so looking for a Bible cover anyway I ended up here and I must say I was going to try to do one myself because I’m kind of a hands-on guy but brother I got to give you credit where credit is due when you got to draw it out that stencil that’s one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my life I believe ha ha awesome work bud do you have a website where I could order something from you? Preciate ya time

[@anthonyrossilli7206]

Hey Don! at 5:23 in the video you are marking the border before tooling. What measurement did you make? 1/8th or 2/8ths? Thanks!

[@renebaatenburg4048]

What kind of brown leather dye do you recommend?

[@kimberlyosdiyshop4107]

how much should I have for clearance for stiching? 1/4 inch? my bible is bigger

[@Sohodollie]

How would one make a similar cover to the original cover of the bible (before the new case, that had the black and brown leather)

[@livetrue54]

I don't have the time, tools, and material to do this. How much would would you charge me to have one made please?

[@littlejohn9458]

Hello Mrs. Gonzales my mom is a minister and I was wondering how much do you charge for a cover like this?

[@TomEJSawyer]

Where do you get your angled brush from you use to 'blot' the dye into small background areas? What's the name of it? Many thanks.

[@joshuatichota5046]

What if you don’t have a sewing machine? Can you still do hand stitching?

[@cherprit2010]

Amazing

[@bahthoanh]

amazing, super easy and simple 😂

[@AdrianRivera-nv7xv]

What tool did you use to to go around the peddles Of the flower?

[@chisexton5845]

Wow!

[@coruscateleatherco.-jw3vq]

What swivel knife are you using here?

[@huallacanes100]

Where can i buy a cover like this? Thank you so much!

[@benjaminkortz442]

What’s that knife you use when cutting out the cardboard

[@AtHomeByTheCreek]

Do you do custom Bible covers as a business?

[@MrDanno180]

where did you get that table top

[@SmashTactics]

Anyone have info on the knife he uses at 14:45? I've looked all over but can't find anything like it.

[@jamesthe-doctor8981]

I've never seen one quite like it, but it looks to me like he's using the smallest X-Acto knife handle with a two-hole injector razor blade in the slot, which will work beautifully. In fact, I'm going to do just that with one of my X-Acto handles. Thanks for the idea!

[@thomasandrewphd.5844]

wow !!

[@TheMrBlackCrow]

Wow !!

[@ElkridgeRanch696]

What kind of pencil do you use to draw on the leather?

simple bible cover? no no no! can u just make it for me? LOL!

[@jamieswanson8828]

What knife are you using?

[@UnumDeum]

Looks like a Barry King swivel knife

[@jamesthe-doctor8981]

I think Kyle is right - I remember Don talking about it in other videos. If I remember correctly, he uses the hollow ground blade, too. Very sharp.

[@melissap9416]

What do you charge for this?

[@alwentzel4776]

How much did the cover cost?

[@robcbuell]

Would be better if it was the KING JAMES BIBLE the only perfect book. NICE WORK!!!!! SUPER TALENTED

[@AndrewLWelch]

Wat u charge for bible covers

[@alwentzel4776]

We all do them a little differently don't we. I have made these for I guess 8 or 9 years. I do most of them with double loop stitch, people like that. See later.

[@alwentzel4776]

See you later, I mean.

[@ElkridgeRanch696]

What kind of pencil do you use to draw on the leather? The ones I attempted to use smeared😳

What is a "Bobble"? I've heard of bobble-head dolls but haven't ever heard a book called that. This project can be used for any book. What makes it specific for books that bobble?
