Finally!! I found someone who isn't all about the 'Leathercraft ASMR' and actually explains what they are doing. Thank you sir.

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

Thanks for watching Mitch!!

[@masterjoachimperts8218]

Yea bro, I agree but I do like the ASMR because it keeps the videos short. But the informational vids r gr8 2

[@mitchblackmore5230]

@@masterjoachimperts8218 The ASMR ones are good when I just want to relax. But since I'm new to this leathercraft stuff (just as a hobby) I need the informational ones. Too many screw-ups on leather can get expensive fast I would think.

[@masterjoachimperts8218]

@@mitchblackmore5230 agreed. After u do it for a couple years tho ASMR will b ur friend.

[@VeganSmasher]

Amazing job, Justin!

[@rparins]

Thanks for all the awesome tips and info. I especially appreciate the part where you share what you would do differently next time! Keep up the good work

[@theyoutubeist5726]

Love it bud! Big video, big project!

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

Thanks!!

[@stevedodson7126]

Will you be having an acrylic template for this bag to purchase? I would love to get one.

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

I think so. Im still working on shipping logistics and pricing for it.

[@stevedodson7126]

@@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER Awesome. Can’t wait!

[@406Montana]

PS.. will you have an acrylic template for this one?

[@yassineelrhazzali6775]

hi there, thank you for the video, what is the thickness of the leather you used for this bag? thank you in advance.

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

It was just about 2mm give or take a little bit

[@rickysantos3927]

What cutter do you use for your copper rivets?

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

I dont know if it has a specific name I know I picked it up from Tandy Leather though.

[@pablonorte77]

Хитрый. Когда прошивал радиусы у сумки, вырезал этот момент из видео.

[@holyterrashall787]

ugh K GUESS SINCE YOU MADE THIS LOOK EASY * i know its not easy* GUESS MY PARTNERS GETTING A NEW BAG >.> LOL

[@pablonorte77]

Hello friend. Do you have a video tutorial on how to pass, flash the radii of the bag? How to sew the rounding of the bag

[@heatherbade8537]

Beautiful work! Very fun to watch. Thank you for sharing!

[@robertduguay689]

You mentioned you would use a bigger French skiver next time. What size did you use and what size would you recommend? Thanks great video and bag.

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

Thanks Robert. I used the Barry King #3 which i believe is 6.5mm. Not sure what if there is one around 8 or 9mm I think that would be great. Closer to what you would get from a nice skiving machine. Also glad I called it a "french edger" for the whole video.

[@martenmaertens1234]

¿Cuero de cuantos mm de espesor es?

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

2mm

[@cornbreadfedkirkpatrick9647]

Nice job

Great video Justin I was currently working on a bag for my grandma which turned out pretty good Justin your bag turned out awesome looking forward to seeing a lot more videos from you have a great day!

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

Thanks Gabe! Hope your bag turned out awesome.

[@salvadortorresjr.9664]

Thanks for the end of the video info. I think I learned more just in the last 5 minutes.

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

Thanks! Ill probably need to re-watch that myself when I go to make another haha.

[@johnjarmuskiewicz5277]

Great video as always!! Do you have a link to the leather from ALD? Or are they out?? I would love to see you do a GOOD purse design. I have women ask all the time for a good purse. Not a fan of the designs out there

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

Hey John! Here is the link: aleatherd.com/collections/specialty-leather . I dont remember if I bought dark or medium. Great bag leather.

Great bag and video. While you were skiving, I'm like he needs a machine 🤣 Bell skivers are a must for bag making. I agree with your 6 afterthoughts. I love nice veg but hate how it wrinkles during birth. Great job!

Hola! Exelente tus trabajos, te has ganado un suscriptor, saludos desde Argentina!

[@Voyagersk9]

Great video Justin! I’m currently working on my 3 bag. I just got a Cobra Class 26 2 weeks ago. I’m still hand stitching the projects until I get the hang of the machine. Good timing on the bag video and some content on the class 26! The bag is awesome!!

[@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER]

Thanks Tim! Love my class 26 cant wait to be proficient at using it. If you didnt get the table top attachment I highly suggest its very useful.

[@Voyagersk9]

@@MAKESUPPLYLEATHER I did get the drop down guide but still need to get the table! Thanks for the tip! I love the machine so far.!👍 can’t wait to see your next video!! I’ve followed you for along time now and have gotten so much out of your videos! I have a lot of your templates!! 👍👍 Keep up the good work!!
