What do you want to see next? Let's hear your ideas! Also thanks for watching, this past week has been really inspiring with lots of views and comments, so keep motivating me. Thanks. :)

[@aleciabarrera9051]

Do you usually stick to small items? I was thinking about possibly making a messenger bag for my husband. I've made a few bags and have incorporated art work but this will be my biggest project to date I'm pretty pumped! Love your work!

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

@@aleciabarrera9051 Quite honestly that might be the video next Tuesday. Not sure what size it will be, it may be just an ipad style smaller bag. But anything can be scaled up fairly well.

[@thehighlander6378]

How about a Scottish Sporran? using both Leather and fur?

[@eco.3977]

Have you ever considered giving turn shoes a try? I think they're pretty fun to make and you have the post-apocalyptic life skill of making your own shoes 😁

[@richardcranium6554]

A fur hat would be nice to learn. Enjoyed this vid, the carving intrigues me. Ideas are flowing....

[@moderndayshieldmaiden]

Great video! I really appreciated the close ups while you were cutting and beveling! I'm such a visual learner and those close ups help me so much.

[@airnashville3883]

Hands down the best videos on leatherwork on youtube! Additionally, great production, editing and narration.

[@dragonUSNr]

You make leather work seem so easy. Love your videos.

[@drunization]

Getting back into leather crafting after learning about it in junior high school many moons ago. I love your no nonsense tutorials, designs and color variations. You remove the apprehension by making things happen with whatever tool you have. I am subscribing and looking to use some of your sketches. Now! Will you please tell me where I can get the Viking music you use in your videos as that is very easy listening when leather crafting.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Well the music I'm listening to is off of EpidemicSound, there's a link in the description. But that's just music to add to videos. If you 're looking for actual bands, try Wardruna or Heilung or Danheim kzbin.info/door/LTQVYwu-M-MnfOJDKlFnOQ

Yo, so I was searching up some videos for how to make some leather pouches for a larp character (Never too many pouches, NEVER!) before I started looking for the right tools and bought the leather and stuff and I clicked this video but I ended falling asleep because this dude's voice was so calming.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Wow my dude! Looks like some skyrim type stuff. Exactly the type thing I'd like to start making. Thanks for the inspiration and keep it up.

[@ehrmanehrmann7115]

When you were drilling the antler for the toggle all I could think was "damn I hate drilling antler it STINKS!" Then you said it's easy and smelly and I almost cried laughing! 🤣 I was like oh good so it's not just me that finds the smell revolting, glad I'm not alone!

[@samanthanicholson9015]

Back packs, mini bag. Multi use bag shopping bag that expands on each end with lace n then fabric flap snaps inside bag....those are ideas. :0) grey and black bag with a dragon on the front flap.

[@philw8049]

Nice, I love the viking art too. You’ve done a couple pouch types, how about adding a sporran? Would be quite similar to this one actually.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Sounds good, a Sporran could be fun and it's been a while since I put one together.

[@beckymurphy4714]

Here's a challenge - a belt pouch to fit a digital camera into. A Canon PowerShot, to be exact. I'm making a set of dragon-scale armor (from craft foam) and need a pouch that wouldn't be out of keeping for my character to carry my camera, spare batteries & memory card in.

[@dougwhi3533]

Cool, it's a sporran!! Lol. Thanks for vid, has inspired me to do one to wear with my kilt.😉

[@prussiankingdom1693]

Was just think that

[@specialsmithchick]

Thank you so much! Your content is classic, your presentation is easy to follow & easy to listen to. Very inspirational, indeed! I wonder if there’s any diy use for the leather hole punch outs? Hmmm ... will have to think about that. Again, many thanks. 💜

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

For the left over leather from punching holes? Not sure.. I do make leather washers occasionally from larger ones if I need them.

[@SirPalandar]

Thanks for the great videos! What type of leather was that you used for the gusset?

[@arrigojaime6523]

Muy hermoso tu trabajo, estoy pendiente de tus videos. Saludos desde Chile.

[@Captain_MonsterFart]

You solved the problem that has confounded me all this time in regards to bag pattern making. Make the gusset too long, that way the number of holes isn't relevant!

Great video as always, my friends and I from the Warriors of Ash love your videos and are inspired to keep creating leather projects, specifically for HEMA. I'd love to see a video on making armor pieces or modding fencing gear like we have, be interesting to see your take on it. Cheers!

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

I've been thinking of doing a gorget video but am not sure how much interest there would be. It's probably the most refined peice of armor I sell.

[@paull.2330]

@@DarkHorseWorkshop Thanks for the reply! Anything armor related would be awesome, maybe a back of the head protection for a fencing mask would be relatively easy to demonstrate. Anyways, looking forward to future videos!

[@RakuraLynn]

Rivets do pop through the leather eventually due to wear and tear. I strongly suggest hand stitching for longer life.

hi, great vid again :-) ive been using ecoflo super sheene as a ressist but the results seem so unpredictable, i hadnt thought of using resolene :-)

[@ryanmcewen393]

Feibings also makes a product called "Pro Resist" chemically it's very similar to resolene. But it's formulated to be a better resist.

[@TheGriever2112]

Just recently found your channel. Wow your leather work is amazing. I'm going to be trying my own drawstring pouch after watching your video. Also curious, what song is in the background, I've heard it on a few of your videos and it is pretty epic.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

It might be "towards excellence" on epidemic sound. I'll dig it up when I'm home if I remember.

[@groseillegrowa3659]

WOW ,,,

[@graemeharrison6560]

Hi I’m enjoying your work and I am very interested in getting some of your patterns if you don’t mind. Thanks,Graeme.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Links in the description to my etsy and website.

[@tmbx2596]

Is the knotted serpent a personal favorite or does it feel more authentic to the Viking aesthetic? I like it as well but I like the ravens and owl artwork of yours I have seen. I really like your channel. Thanks for the great content!

[@zercules9156]

How long did you let the leather dry between the dye and applying the finish?

[@bullandtimber]

Great video as usual! How easy is resolene to use in a spray gun? Do u have to cut it with anything or can u just pour it right in?

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

I just pour it right in, stay on top of cleaning it, I've left it a couple of times and it's a pain.

[@Ps2352]

Thanks for the instruction. My first attempt at a gusseted pouch. I’m finding by the first curve my holes so are off by one. So I have to angle the needle to 45 degrees to reach the next one. Thinking of using 3.85 mm irons for the inside of curve and 4 mm on the outside? Maybe the difference in radius from outside compared to inside? Thanks

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

You get this sorted out?

[@d.p.6723]

Where do you get your leather from of you dont mind my asking?

[@samanthanicholson9015]

How did you punch the holes for the gusset, did you wrap it around and mark it on a curve or just do the same distance of holes on the gusset when flat?

[@andylongmore6697]

A cheeky question, where do you get the Viking designs? I don't do leather work but I do hand carving, some those designs would look awesome on a stave.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

All of my designs I draw and are available on my website for purchase for people to use in their projects.

[@tropicalhellesdongardenuk2991]

i think toggle is the word you are looking for for your antler tip fixing

[@robsealsey5052]

So I actually bought your pattern and the tutorial was really helpful. Probably the best leatherwork I have pulled off so far. One thing I have noticed is that since I'm using hand shears to cut my leather due to a lack of a proper workshop and tool set, my items tend to end up slightly lopsided. The above pouch had to be trimmed slightly to close properly, and its still just a hair off. Tips for avoiding this?

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

I'd need more info on what exactly is happening. maybe a quick doodle, email me [e-mail]

[@lisakrieger10]

I just bought your pattern. What is burnishing? And where to you the stuff to finish the leather?

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Burnishing is smoothing the edges through friction and some kind of wax water or burnishing agent

[@gregwhite585]

I need this pouch . Shoot me some info please

[@robertoguerini609]

[@jessemarshall7176]

I just purchased the pattern. What are the recommended weights for the leather? No pattern ever seems to mention it.

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Should be on there. But if not probably 6 to 8 for the main body, 3ish soft for the gusset. Loops probably 6oz

[@jessemarshall7176]

Dark Horse Workshop thanks I just need to buy some 3 then

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

@@jessemarshall7176 just be sure it folds nice etc.

[@Foxglove09]

Can I ask why you use hole punches rather than chisels for your stiching holes?

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

If I was making something with flat lace I'd use a chisel, any western type work etc. Nothing wrong with a chisel if you like how your stitches look through it.

It really depends on the project. You need different lengths to go through different leather thicknesses. I'd just get a little assortment.
