This series tutorial is so helpful. I have 0 experience in leather crafting before and now I have almost finished my first strap. It is by no means a good strap, but I can feel that I’m improving. I have watched all 3 parts of them multiple times and every time I re-watch it, I learned something more. Thanks for sharing this man, you are the best!

[@dripbelts]

I will do another set of these tutorials sometime later in the year, more in depth, better angles etc
