Making a Leather Trucker Wallet
A fairly simple leather crafting project for beginner to intermediate leather crafters, we made up this trucker wallet with natural vegetable tanned leather and poly thread to sample a new wallet design. There's a hidden card slot, a bunch of long slots for receipts and cash, and this leather wallet also has a nice flap closure pocket for storing whatever extra stuff you might have!
I made up this wallet to sample a few design ideas I had. I like the idea of a shorter trucker / biker wallet, and this one measures in around 6.5" long instead of the traditional 7" or 8". It's compact but holds dollar bills without needing to fold them, which is important for ease of use. Overall I'm pleased with the design of the leather trucker wallet we made, and with a few tweaks it'll be a nice pattern to pull out every now and again.

Not only have your video filming techniques become satisfying and professional, but also carefully show your technique and speed in a realistic and convincing display of craftsmanship. The same for your freehand cutting, stitching, and glueing. Well done. Something for the which everyone may enjoy and learn.

[@Corter]

Thanks so much, that means the world! It's been a lot of work to learn how to film properly and we're still very much amateurs, but your words of encouragement are very motivating to keep giving it a proper go :)

l bought a wallet kit like that back in the 90s. Finally wore out 25 years later.

[@frederickmiller5492]

Using the spool as a guide for corners - genius. I always tell my students: "Use what you have in your studio to aid you when making art." This was a perfect example. :)

[@ptabz3112]

Your freehand cutting skill with the xacto knife is amazing

[@ratroddiesels1981]

[@DarkHorseWorkshop]

Quality filming / editting, love it.

[@igorivanyutin5666]

I really love your channel. It's like watching Discovery for me. Everything is very... you know... natural =) Your videos are relaxing and inspiring me at the same time. Thank you a lot. With best wishes, Igor.

[@DrizzleWazza]

I love the way you film and edit your work! No music or anything, just the raw sounds of a workshop! And those leather products look so great! How thick is the leather that you're using, t looks easy to cut so I guess 1mm?

[@rickdearmont9950]

Very lovely! Well done.

[@grahamhawthorn7925]

You sir have a wonderful talent.

[@ArielYahni]

Its my peaceful moment of the week. Keep em coming!!!

[@Corter]

I love to hear that, most certainly will! Thanks for watching :)

[@ArielYahni]

Also i applaud you guys for using every single round shaped thingi to cut corners, this must be a Guinness record

[@Corter]

you know it! I've always used whatever I can find, today I used a full sized dinner plate to make a wide arc on a long wallet liner haha!

[@ArielYahni]

LOL, next step is to use a car tire to round a whole hide :)

[@16280_Garcia]

That looks amazing.

[@duncanjunctionsthemadman7418]

amazing piece. I hope one day I can be able to produce something that clean.

[@ANANDDUGAD55555]

I love the way u made this work and video really impressed keep it up. Your video impressed me to make such things by our self

[@josephjoe9088]

Once again very great and informative video. Your videos are getting better and better and I love them. BTW where do you buy your bulk hardware from? the snaps, rivets etc.

[@wjneupe]

Thanks for this video I finally figured out your stitching technique. I really like the way your stitching looks. I suppose that the pricking iron you use is important, where did you get it?

[@PaulPirie]

Ooooh I really like this design. Every time I think I'm finally happy with my current wallet, I see something else I like. How many wallets is too many?

[@mbmoussa9350]

Excellent your good work

[@goranfokuhl9945]

The most beautiful wallet I've ever seen! Will you offer the patterns in your shop too?

[@jtmag3638]

Another lovely video! Can you tell us where you got that pricking iron?

[@user-cn7cg2gn4w]

fabulous

[@kdotcrafts7177]

can you buy whole hide that thin? or you skive it?

[@MountainFisher]

I notice you don't use a stitching pony, I presume it's just a preference?

[@lindomarrosa9260]

Muito bom. Qual linha vc usa??

[@TATEXPRESSINC]

I love the video

[@mccalltjtm]

Very nice!

[@Jer0867]

Hi, this is a great looking wallet, and I'd love to have a go at it myself! Do you have a pattern available for it? Thanks in advance! 🙂👍

[@kornelmaziec6606]

This is real ASMR 😅

[@ratroddiesels1981]

how do you know how long to cut the thread for your projects. ?

[@dennishero22]

Do you have a store so people could buy them or online shop please I want to know thank you so much

[@torqueous93nix]

Really love the work! If you could let us know where you got the corter Stamp and logo made it would be much appreciated!

[@Corter]

I'm a graphic designer so I made the branding and got the trademarks and such - the stamp was made by Infinity Stamps years and years ago, there are lots of options for brass stamps now days!

[@Josh_Luijsterburg]

Great. Finally I understood why the leather washers. When will you make a tutorial about your way of stitching??? I thought you called it lazy frog lapstitching???

[@9772783]

Can I buy the patterns to this wallet anywhere?

[@tjmars37]

What thickness leather did you use?

[@ahmedtarekalzeer906]

What leather do you use

[@mattschorr1666]

What type of stitch are you using? I'm trying to figure out if you go from front to back and then back to front in the same hole--how that works?

[@MountainFisher]

Look up how to saddle stitch here on YT.

[@shaymaa633]

What kind of leather you used?

[@user-nj8bo6oy7m]

Good health. I'd like to know what skin you're working with. Its thickness?

[@masonvangilder5148]

What type of glue do you use?????

[@jeffarmstrong5410]

Nice job! What kind of glue do you use?

[@hjaltenielsen7566]

some sort of rubber cement I think.

[@tariqkamil7853]

Hate it that u can cut curves free hand...pure jealousy 😆! Just staring out Having a great time working on leather and improving. Thanks for all ur vdos

[@jesusmiranda8884]

Buenos dias esperó k tengas

[@captainamerica1797]

It gets at most of what is going on. Chain+wallet = always. You wouldn't want to turn around and go back 3 or 4 hundred miles cus the old lady didn't remind you that you forgot your fuckin' wallet.

[@tariqkamil7853]

And what pricking irons are u using in this vid?

[@nboucher98]

I'm fairly certain they're Crimson Hide irons.

[@virgilstewart4487]

What oz leather are you using

[@francotello5781]

[@Dvhjgdsfhkmhhk]

3:22

[@brunocampos9433]

3:24 hahaha

[@streetDAOC]

Why is there a lot of background static noise

[@NeronAtix]

3:20 jajajajajjaaaj

[@curiousantics2097]

The sound keeps cutting to one ear off and on. Is that just me or is it the video?

[@fakhriabdillah7537]

Maybe you have to add a song on your video, so it will make us not boring to watch it

[@cameronwood7239]

Pliz put autofocus off. Thanks awesome product and skill keep up the great work

[@franciscovirgen2234]

Que malos tutoriales donde no explican nada solo te presumen lo que hacen

[@peepopalaber]

like it ... but the sound is so right-heavy. its distracting.

[@BalynOmavel]

Bad sound design (unreasonable channel switching) but video is great.
