There is definitely a learning curve with this tool; I experienced the same problems initially but eventually got the hang of it. I was surprised at the lace I got out of a 12”x12” square of leather. Donald.

I used to work with a lady who made leather halter tops and side bags for motorcycles. I would make the laces she needed and to also make braclets and key rings. So I know that those lace makers can be stinkers sometimes. But the end product was always worth it.

Makes me feel a ton better knowing that I'm not the only one that has issues with the Devil's Thong maker! Thanks for the how- to and a couple of laughs!

Thank you for making this video. I'm still practicing with this tool :) I've seen a lot of demos that are less than two minutes and I didn't really learn the ins and outs of using this lace maker until I watched your video. It's very entertaining to listen to you speak and seeing that you also take a while is encouraging for beginners like me who struggle with assembling and prepping tools. Of course, I don't find enjoyment in seeing you "struggle". Anyway, thanks.

Yay, its not just me who had an issue using one of these. I have seen people say to keep your index finger on your right hand as high as you can to keep the leather feeding through the blade. Another tip was to strop the blade frequently or to always use a fresh blade.

Mark Salter this was a new blade. I could have edited it out. I like to show people everything that’s why I never edit. This way you get to see the real fun in working with leather

solsdadio that tool is useful but a pain. I’m in east Ayrshire about an hour from Dumfries. Dumfries is that town that likes to tell you what speed you’re doing on the motorway. They told me I was doing 106 on the motorbike. I thought that was nice of them. Until they sent the bill for their time

Using the bottom cutters is a mess. It’s very difficult. I only have had luck using the one that is in the top. Does anyone know how could I make square leather laces?
@brendah.8201 Жыл бұрын
Cut your laces the same measurement as however thick your leather is. Equal width & height = square. It can also be bought.

Great video and very informative. I do have to give a big shout-out to KZbin and they're closed caption because you all from Scotland are impossible to understand sometimes. I've been all over the world and spoken to so many people in their broken English and different dialects but you Scottish folks need closed caption and a dictionary to understand to you folks.🤗💕

I saw another video the author said if you would wipe floor waxnon soft leather. Let it dry this stiffens the leather making it easier to cut.
