How to Use Bar Grounders for Leather Tooling

[@vincentbedard3325]

I really like your "1 tool video". Ex this one and the thumbprint video. How you use them and what can be done with them. It is really helpful. Thank you for your content 👌

[@Girtyleatherco]

I intend on making some more in the future for sure! Possibly bevelers and veiner tools next! I appreciate your feedback!

[@thecontagiouscajun4795]

Love your videos! You do a great job communicating your process and teaching. Lots of good info!!!

[@Girtyleatherco]

That means a lot, thank you!! I try to provide as much as I can from what I have learned and how I perceive it in my own head. Sometimes I feel like it won’t make much sense to others, so it’s good to know that it does translate well!

Perfect! Great video on the bar grounding!!

[@Girtyleatherco]

Thank you!!

[@milom.2057]

Great video. Had been looking forward to it. Thanks!

[@Girtyleatherco]

Thank you! The video ended up taking a little different route than I initially planned, but I hope it was helpful! I might make a more condensed version in the future.

[@milom.2057]

@@Girtyleatherco I think it’s a great video. I’ll be attending the Prescott Trade show in February. My first stop will be the Barry King booth and picking up the same ones you have. I’ve learned a lot from this and many of your videos. Thanks.

[@Girtyleatherco]

Well I really appreciate you watching!!

[@calex8807]

Thank you, I didn’t even realize the length of the video. I’ve really struggled with bar grounding and this has been really helpful.

[@Girtyleatherco]

I’m glad it’s been helpful, I tried to make it as informative as I could!

[@carlithebikerguy3873]

You do GREAT work young man. Be confident you are excellent. I love your videos and you have a great personality. No need to denigrate yourself. Don’t point out every mistake.

[@Girtyleatherco]

I very much appreciate that and thank you for following along!!

[@mattkeith2974]

Very nice demonstration and explanation of your bar grounder technique! Great video! Keep up the good work my friend.

[@Girtyleatherco]

Ethan, impresionante tu progreso como artista,eres un gran Maestro,me encanta ir allí desde España y tomar una mentoria suya

[@Girtyleatherco]

I appreciate you! 🙏🏽

[@33RanchSaddlery]

Great video and beautiful work!

[@Girtyleatherco]

Thank you so much!

[@findingalpha1]

This was really great for me!!! I always struggle on where to start and just keeping in mind "the wide side" while watching you really helped!

[@bobzee5153]

You do great work kid!

[@Girtyleatherco]

Thank you so much! 🙏🏽

[@TheRobstant56]

thanks for the video brother! the length didn't bother me one bit. I got at least three great tips to help me transition from matting tools to bar grounders. I think you know more and explain better than most of the other U Tubers out there. Set up a subscriber based project channel and I will be there. See ya!

[@Girtyleatherco]

I very much appreciate that! I’ll keep doing my best and hopefully it keeps helping!

[@alfredoowns12]

Agree. I've been trying to get into leather work for a while, these vids are perfect.

[@kenhouse8683]

Very good great tutorial

[@karlee7898]

So helpful!!

[@alexanderlepley1698]

Ethan! I love your content and your leatherwork. Can you please make a video on decorative cuts? Your decorative cuts are on point! I’d love to see and hear your tips on how you place them and what blade you are using on your swivel knife. Thank you

[@Girtyleatherco]

I really appreciate that and thank you for the video idea! That’s definitely something I will add on my to-do list coming up in the new year!

[@justinemichael923]

Can you do a video on how to finish leather after you paint it? I’ve had some issues of paint rubbing off when I put resist on it

[@Girtyleatherco]

I’m no paint expert to be honest. I’ve tried a lot of different methods and I still have issues myself. I almost always have to touch up the paint in the end. I will say that thinning the paint down quite a bit and applying multiple thin coats with adequate dry times in between helps most for me, but still not perfect.

👍

[@ParkerEaley]

Thanks for the helpful videos ! I noticed the Barry King catalog, where can I get one ??

[@Girtyleatherco]

Every time I have purchased directly from his website I have received one with the package. You may be able to request one from them, it’s very helpful!

[@ParkerEaley]

@ Thanks

[@carlosgutierrez3389]

Hola me gustan mucho tus vídeos pero para mí en particular tiene un defecto ya que estás explicando para que sirven cada repujador pero tus vídeos no tiene traductor a otros idiomas y yo que te veo desde España no entiendo nada de los que esplicas por favor podías poner sus títulos en otros idiomas gracias y sigue así con esos vídeos tan esplicativos

[@Girtyleatherco]

I will try to do some research and see if I can figure something out that will help! Thank you for the feedback and I really appreciate you taking the time to watch!
