Could It Be This EASY!? Making a Leather Wallet and All Tools Explained! (The Faulkner)

[@emeraldcityleather5584]

This has to be the Best video yet IMO. For many reasons, but most of all, the nonsensical approach you have with the overall process. As a still new-bee, I can’t begin to tell you how much I pickup from you! Thank You sir! 👍👍

As always, thank you. I really appreciate how generous you are with sharing your skills with us noobs in KZbin land.

Or be first to comment and pin the tool list to top of comments. Just a thought.

After all the videos of yours that I've watched, get ideas and inspiration to do some of your projects. I like the bump jigs and the way you measure once for patterns. I still have to practice that technique to get it down. This video helps a lot. I want to show you a lil love by buying something from you. Some of the things you have I made for myself like the anvil, I used two 4.5lbs weights stacked, on top of a caster I made. I made a rougher from a flat screwdriver and the bump jigs, square and straight from aluminum bars. I'm on a budget and my workspace is small but I will buy something from you.

[@MasconLeather]

Thanks, Earl!

Great info and really enjoying your work. I am learning a lot and remembering the more I watch. But what's the white mud? Just a conditioner / burnishing paste or your own concoction?

I am about to finish my first big project. And it is actually just copyin everythingg you show in the video. My tools are mostly cheap amazon stuff for now, but I am willing to invest in the future as working with leather is soooo relaxing. Punching every single hole with an awl in all 4 pieces. Because that is what I got. :P What I did for a logo on the top face: I 3D printed a stamp with sharp corners and used a vice to apply it to the leather. It worked great!
