How I make my Medium sized wet moulded belt pouch Part 1

This is part 1 of me making one of my medium sized belt pouch, hope you like it.

[@halmason9252]

Might include the suggestion to use belly leather to avoid all the notching. Belly leather forms well and holds it shape as good as any other leather.

[@robertclarke7274]

Takes me back seeing how you have mastered the art.

[@dalevodden1359]

Since this video was done 5 years ago you didn't show what you soaked the leather in to get it soft

[@Brummiejohn200]

Hi Dale it's was just water and you soak until no more bubbles are coming out of the leather about 5 mins, hope this helps, atb John.

[@Brummiejohn200]

Thank you, atb John.

Thanks for an excellent instructional video. I particularly appreciate the absence of annoying music. I seldom click a “like” button. Yours is the exception.

[@Brummiejohn200]

[@michaelgentilucci3949]

Hi John, where do you get the wooden press that has the shape of the pouch your making? did you make that yourself?

Nice Great Job. What kind of dye is this you are using? Greetings from Greece.

[@Brummiejohn200]

Thanks for the comment, I use Fiebing’s professional oil dye, atb John

[@derekjamesteague3845]

John Wellings Why does the dye look so thick at first?

[@hadibari7784]

good job

[@Buraccoli]

What size leather did you use?

[@Brummiejohn200]

It's 3mm thick veg tan.

[@fendersquire01]

Thank you. Great video. At 0:19 what is the first liquid applied to the leather?

[@Brummiejohn200]

Thanks for your comment, that's just water.

[@WShawn]

How long do you leave the leather piece in the mold before removing? Thanks for the video.

[@Brummiejohn200]

I leave it for about 2-3 hours then take the leather from the mould It will dry a lot quicker out of the mould but be careful when you take it out.

[@WShawn]

Thanks for the reply. Do you just use water? There's an Instructables tutorial where the guy is using alcohol and water.

[@Brummiejohn200]

Just plain water nothing else.

[@Alexxalexalexu]

What is the need of cutting the tips?

[@Brummiejohn200]

? Not sure what you mean.

[@stevekacys8484]

What kind of leather dye do you use?
