How to Tool a Feather Bracelet (With Free Pattern for Download)

[@jffqnn]

I just wanted to say Thank You for Your Tutorial and the Free Pattern. I'm trying my hand at different mediums to see if I can combine leather, wood and glass to create something unique for Loved One's. I really appreciate Your Time and Confidence Building, especially when I've never tried to make anything out of leather except Key Fob's (Blood Knot) This is going to be a whole new level of learning.. Thanks Again for Sharing Your Knowledge!!

Thank you so much and thank you for the free pattern!

[@Fruittit3660]

Love you hat, what style shape is it in

[@gacetasierranortepue]

Buenos trabajos, me gustan y ojalá tuviera más tutoriales para hacer. Gracias.

[@Esuper1]

Thank you for the tutorial and feather pattern. I will try this on a knife sheath I am making.

[@thomasbeckett1245]

Tandy Leather is getting people to carve feathers for veterans!? Any suggestions would b appreciated!

[@hoofpick58]

Liked your video on tooling a feather. Tried to get the PDF link for the pattern of the feather. 3 times and still haven’t received the link for the file.😡

How long do you wait to begin swiving leather when u spray water?

[@Handles-R-Lame]

I know its been a long time since you asked the question, but in case anyone is still wondering.. its not very long maybe about 30 seconds or so. When using a spray bottle its more of the "quick casing method" unlike a "normal casing method" where you would submerge the leather to let it soak up the water, that method takes much longer some times a full day as some people leave it over night before carving the leather. Personally im impartial, either is fine with me, pending how much time i wanna spend on my case of course. Peace.

Really enjoyed the video. Thanks for the free pattern.

[@nursekrista2011]

I don’t know how anyone could think this is a good tutorial, I learned exactly what I would have from a book. I came to KZbin for a demonstration, but I couldn’t see anything you did! I really would love to learn from you so I hope you have better videos.

[@AldensSchoolofLeatherTrades]

Thanks for the constructive criticism. We are always trying to improve. I'm primarily a leatherworker, video work is a whole different game!

[@dhadden3827]

I agree No closeup views to actually whats happening

[@linusorri]

@@AldensSchoolofLeatherTrades It's so close to being good! Just a closeup of the tools and how they're being used and consistent lighting between the cameras and your set. Currently working my way through tooling this feather.

Excelente trabajo, Felicitaciones!!!! Eso si, el de la camara que se dedique a otra cosa

[@lcatt236]

What is the weight you use?

[@nestanmamulashvili3207]

How many mm should be the thickness of the ornaments and flowers?

[@blairbates7594]

wondering where did you get your stylus

[@jameshutton756]

Thank you for the knowledge

[@ageorge7140]

Do you always wet both sides of the leather

[@AldensSchoolofLeatherTrades]

It just depends, you want the moisture content to be even to the middle of your leather. Sometimes I wet it completely and then let it dry to the moisture content I'm looking for.

[@ElkridgeRanch696]

Where did you get the skinny swivel knife?

[@AldensSchoolofLeatherTrades]

It is the Barry King "Straight 1/4" Thin Blade": www.barrykingtools.com/swivelknives.htm

[@dravengiles4606]

Love your work

[@teddermachineworks]

you don't appreciate the skill until you trace the pattern and come back to watch it again

[@rhino159]

Awesome job

[@jameestewart1529]

Just curious what is the eraser for ?

[@AldensSchoolofLeatherTrades]

I don't typically use patterns. I use a 9b graphite pencil to draw the pattern directly on the leather, and then erase it after my swivel knife.

[@marshallsmith6842]

Great video Tim, just wondering what oz maul do you use?

[@AldensSchoolofLeatherTrades]

Marshall Smith I like the 16 oz maul for carving and a heavier for stamping.

[@waynemcmanus2634]

thanks for sharing the pattern and love the video's

[@dravengiles4606]

Great job

[@dravengiles4606]

Thank you

[@audragardner4916]

Itd be cool if I could see what you’re doing

[@AldensSchoolofLeatherTrades]

That would be cool! If I had a time machine i would go back and fix that. It has taken a lot of time and money to get to the current quality of our videos. I don't know whether to revisit and reshoot some of these old videos, or just take them down.

[@bobnolen1339]

Where is the download?

[@bobnolen1339]

Found it, sorry! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Hi sir you look like oldest Hollywood movie hero.

[@ricemerson9256]

I think you did a lousy job at showing people how it's done because you were not doing any close-ups on your tooling so maybe get a camera person that can zoom in to show your tooling expertise while you're talking about it and it would make your time in this video worth a lot more. I am a professional but not everybody out there is so I think their interest would be in how you hold your tools and a little guidance would help people to understand what you're doing not from a distance. You have to understand not everyone is experienced in this art so don't assume.

[@TheAaronalden]

Thanks for the constructive criticism. I have since bought a longer lens, but we are also getting a different camera person, so maybe that will help too.

[@Geo148]

Perhaps a little more on the stamp your using. Not a dissertation, just a little bit more. A couple of strikes and show the results. @@TheAaronalden

[@ElkridgeRanch696]

Sheesh Rick, calm down!😃😃😃

[@Esuper1]

I am total newby but after three videos I get that holding the tools square or at angles depends what your going for with any type of work. But I get the criticism. Some people need to see something in its totality or they are lost.

[@markorollo.]

I think it's lousy to just come right out and tell someone they did a lousy job, constructive polite advice is better.

[@daliborklusacek2095]

unfortunately nothing can be seen through your hand

[@AldensSchoolofLeatherTrades]

Yeah, our newer video we have more cameras and an action camera right in front of me, so the tooling is never (or rarely) blocked. We are also able to do better close ups.
