As a person who has never worked with leather before, what tools are you using and where do you recommend getting them?

[@TonyAllenBernier]

If you watch through the video it may be more helpful. But basically I think you would need to print the pattern obviously. Then some clear box tape, a stitching chisel or really small hole punch, a utility knife or some sharp strong scissors, then some needles and thread. If you want to burnish the edges you could get a burnisher or a small chunk of canvas works. I get almost everything from Weaver Leather, here's a link. www.weaverleathersupply.com/?ref=mdq2zmv I prefer the utility knife, however in a couple classes I've taught students weren't experienced with it and just did better with scissors.

Incredible!!! I’m gonna see if I can do something of the sort with some faux leather fabric I found at a thrift store!!! Thanks so much for the video!!!

What thickness of leather was that? Thanks

[@TonyAllenBernier]

probably around a 6 or 7oz.

[@dressesandcapes472]

This is so cool! What size of buckles are you using? Want to make sure I get the right size. Thanks!

[@TonyAllenBernier]

Thank you. The buckle sizes will be listed on the pattern and/or in the listing.

Yes, but why?

[@TonyAllenBernier]

lol, Ren fair, or reenactment stuff. Wouldn't you have liked to have an easy way to carry your geological maps around back when you were a geologist? ;)

@@TonyAllenBernier I actually wanna try to do harness, so I m using several videos as references, including yours. I dunno my guy, 'geological maps' is kinda unpopular thing

@@randymarsh8842 In My opinion i found this extremely useful. I like to make props for my dnd games or even to use for my larp character and even ren faire. If you weren't looking for this video why click on it.
