As very new to leather crafting, I never knew there were different cuts of leather! Thank you.

[@JHLeather]

Glad you found it helpful ☺️

I know someone is an expert when they can finish with a "pew pew". 👍

[@teogabrielsson4717]

Love the smirk on your face every time you say "butt" 😂

[@JHLeather]

😂😂 I should have added a butt counter

[@jcooper306]

Noob here….this is very helpful, thank you!

[@JHLeather]

Glad it was helpful! 😁

[@ShaneCessna]

ha ha, she nearly laughs every time she says butt...I love that

[@teogabrielsson4717]

I noticed it to hah!

[@JHLeather]

Fair to say butts were mentioned a lot in this video ...

[@daveturnbull7221]

Loads of very handy info in here Jo 👍 and I loved the bloopers at the end - made me chuckle 😄

[@JHLeather]

Haha that's Dave 😁

[@KarlovaDesign]

LMAO love the bloopers!!!! "tanned using vegetables" LOL

[@johnmackay285]

Great 👍, condensed a load of information into a fantastic video. Great points of reference for folk like me. Well done Jo, beeps are funny 😄.

[@JHLeather]

Thanks John 😊

[@tbg3111]

Great information, as usual. I really appreciated the last part covering your preferences depending on the project.

[@JHLeather]

Glad you found it helpful 👍

[@dezkant]

One small point about leather thickness that I think could be categorized more accurately is the 1.5mm thickness: 1oz is equal to 1/64 inches or 0.4mm, so generally you won't find 1.5mm thickness anywhere on a 2-3oz hide. Rather, you'd find it in a 3-4oz hide (1.2 to 1.6mm || 3/64 to 1/16 inch). Love all the videos and community, keep it up!!! All your videos are extremely helpful to a newbie like me; thanks Jo!

[@jonny7491]

Very informative, just starting on my leather crafting and was getting mixed messages of what kind of leather/ thicknesses to use. Thank you.

[@JHLeather]

Glad you found it helpful 👍

[@Trassel242]

Thank you for making these very informative videos, I myself bought two square feet of vegetable tanned ox/cow leather (top grain leather, but a cheap one with visible scars etc). I figured that vegetable tanned leather was the best option for me since it’s better for the environment and the people working in the tannery. I was excited to see your video on adhesives, as the BioStik glue seems a LOT nicer (no toxic fumes etc) than what I had previously planned to buy. The bloopers were funny, shows that I’m not alone in tripping over my own tongue when speaking!

Glad it was helpful!

[@themikelee]

I would love a video about how to identify good vs poor vegetable tanned leather. I have discovered that they're not all the same quality. And you didn't mention the belly cuts.

[@edfingleton9889]

Not you trying not to chuckle each time you say butt😂😂

[@michaels2208]

Great video as always. I'm back creating so it's good to see you making content again. I may join the group again. It was really helpful.

Could you add some recommended leather merchants. So many uk suppliers look like they have a good selection but when you click through they have no stock😢.

[@fruzs1980]

Have you had any luck? I'm also looking...

[@jodalry]

Hi Jo and thanks for all your videos. Quite enjoyed this one but noticed there was no mention of bridle leather? Would like to have more information on this particular type of leather especially in relation to making equine and canine products. Any chance if a separate video on this? 👍🏻🙂

[@hamedalharthy2767]

Can you explain the oz’s and why/how it is measured that way? Thank you so much. I love your videos and I’m finally starting some crafting!

Just want to start can you please guide me how to buy all the things the items you use , do you get them online or from a shop ? Please please just taking a big action to change and want to start producing .🙏🙏🙏

[@shadman1024]

Great Video. I’m interested in starting up a leather goods manufacturing company. Any suggestions? The place where I live we get the cheapest cow leather, approx 50sqft @ 4-5USD.

[@chevaryan2082]

What thickness would be best for a watch band? I can’t emerge if that was mentioned or not

[@enzozalazar2908]

I have a question. Vegetal tanned leather still works to make shoes or its only a crome tanned thing?

[@wasteddude9387]

Looking for video advising thickness to start first project with. Search put your video at third spot, but first relevant. Great content for me. I noticed you think a lot of different leathers are "strong". But hey, maybe you just like the word. Anyway, subscribing and thanking you. If you take suggestions, I'm partial to "Kraken".

Hey Beautiful 😍

[@wild-radio7373]

Why did you not cover the belly piece? That's all i have bought

[@teogabrielsson4717]

Bellies are almost always considered to be trash. With a few exceptions, one being the Buttero Bellies from the Walpier tannery. You can practice on bellies and also make a few small items like card holders.. but anything more than that would not be recommended. It's cheap for a reason. They are far to stretchy. But as I mentioned earlier, bellies are good for practicing stitching and cutting.

What is oil pull leather?

What thickness would you use for a jacket?

[@owczarzaknorman9994]

Hi, what tickness of leather for wrist wach straps?

[@JHLeather]

Around 1-1.5 mm thick depending on what leather and design you are using 👍

Have you ever worked with Bog tanned leather?

[@JHLeather]

Oooo I haven't no, i will have to do some research on that as I hadn't heard of bog tanning before

[@mechminded2207]

@@JHLeather apparently popular in Scotland a while back, peat bog tanning. No sure how industrialised such a process could be.
