[@macleodshepherd2406]

Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. They are great. I look forward to using the new pricking irons.

Thanks for the vids and templates. Stuff like this is keeping me sane during this 2020 lockdown.

I just bought that kit yesterday from Tandy. I have been getting my leather at frog Shelly in Arlington I’m in Mineral Wells, so they are the closest

Great video! Leather...Just Like That! would make a good title for a video series.

[@michealdoran4383]

Great video! Really enjoy these build alongs. I can't wait to get some of those sweet pricking irons and thread.

[@soodypop2014]

I have really enjoyed your videos. Thank you for sharing!

Just made one of these money clip wallets. The clip wants to slide out when opening up the clip. The clip was tight going in, but now wants to come out when you open it. It's not loose enough to fall out, when opening the clip each time and it wants to pull out a little could be a pain for the user. I have never carried a money clip wallet, so maybe that's just the way they are? Any tips to get this clip in there tighter?

Awesome video, Aaron!

[@tammyaltic2254]

Aaron, did you pouch a bigger hole on the sides of the interior pocket where the money clip goes through so you could sew 1/8” seam allowance? I was just curious because the size of the hole on the template I used a 5/32” pouch to fit the template hole and I’m finding with an 1/8” seam allowance the stitch line is going below the curve for the money clip insert. I’m afraid when I used my pricking iron the holes are going to be to close to the edge. Can I ask what seam allowance you used for your wallet? Thanks for your help

Punch it as large as you need to make it easy on yourself :)

What kind of leather gauge do you use.

[@apiraam]

Going to create the same piece just wondering can you squeeze an extra card in between each pocket?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

Yes you can

[@awildeep]

@@makersleathersupply1220 If you build the type 1 using the type 2 outside, you can probably get 3 cards per side if you skive the divider tongues down. It's actually what I intend to try and do for my next project. I may also put one exterior pocket on, but I have not decided yet.

How do you finish the back of leather if you don’t use a liner

[@makersleathersupply1220]

If not lining it, best you can do is lightly dampen it and rub it with a glycerin saddle soap bar.

[@damesydneyleatherworksprie9136]

I like that you do what you do. But I cant see anything you are doing because the leather is dark and the camera is to far away from your leather.

[@Mike-ef7xe]

Question: I have been removing the paper backing off your templates. Is that the wrong thing to do?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

Not at all... makes it so you can avoid imperfections in the leather and place them better.

[@sfkid57]

the front pocket money clipper you don't sew across the money clip but on the other inside pockets you sew across, why?

[@makersleathersupply1220]

Just 2 different ways to make it. The one where the clip is sewn in ends up being larger.

[@laurakelley5070]

Where do you get the templates?
