I can only say that I rightfully consider you to be a professional. I think you are a winner as we say here in the Netherlands. I prefer to follow your videos because you explain it simply and show it in a way that I used to do with students I got to lay parquet floors. I am, or will also start with leather processing and I always have to laugh at the way you film, very nice. keep it up !!! I am a very big fan!!! greetings from the Netherlands Leo Elandt
