Hand Making a Leather Wallet with Extra ID Fold

[@HossBear]

I honestly really enjoyed the classical music in the background. May have enjoyed it even more than ASMR personally.

[@TheDukeofCraft]

I'm glad you liked it! I debated adding some more modern music but somehow classical just felt like the right vibe for this one.

AWESOME! I've been wanting to make a wallet with a good id insert. Thank you for offering the template. Keep making such cool stuff. You definitely have a new subscriber here!

Nice video! I love the spinning display at the end, 10/10 use it more :P I look forward to the game and movie videos you have planned!

[@TheDukeofCraft]

Thank you! Yeah I think the rotating display was 10/10 worth the money.

great video and beautiful wallet. i watched another video where they used a cheap paint brush to apply the contact cement. it was easier and less chance for mess. thought i would pass it along. i learn so much from these videos, i like to pass along little tips if i run across them. thank you for the video. keep up the great work

[@TheDukeofCraft]

Thank you, and thanks for the tip!

[@iseleylaura]

This was super helpful! I’ve never made a leather wallet before, and I’m excited to get into the craft. So thank you for such a beautiful video!

[@TheDukeofCraft]

You're very welcome, thank you for the compliment! I'm no expert, but if you have any questions as you get into it, I'd be happy to answer them.

[@Vaaluin]

Finally had a chance to check out your stuff. Was a lot of fun to watch! Both the craft and the video itself :D

[@TheDukeofCraft]

Thank you!

Where did you get the window plastic

[@TheDukeofCraft]

It's a clear vinyl I found on Amazon. 20mil thickness, marketed as a protective cover for tablecloths.

[@Ignazio2693]

What thickness do you use for all of the pieces? Is it all one thickness?

[@TheDukeofCraft]

Both sides of the cash pocket were slightly thicker leather just because it bends a bit better than the leather I used on the card pockets. The outer part is around 4 oz and the rest is around 2 oz. Ideally it should probably all be 2-3 oz but I don't yet have a good skiver for large pieces of leather.

Do you know if it is easy to dye a brown leather wallet to black?

[@TheDukeofCraft]

I have never tried. Assuming it's a good veg tan leather, I'm guessing it would work OK. If it's a store bought wallet made out of cheap or artificial leather, I don't think it would work well.

[@mitchellleske5919]

Where did you get the pattern for the wallet?

[@TheDukeofCraft]

I made it in Adobe Illustrator.

[@deanransom2350]

@@TheDukeofCraft Do you sell the pattern? Is it available to the public?

[@TheDukeofCraft]

@@deanransom2350 I don't sell it - but I added a free download link to the video description. Enjoy!
