@@SpringfieldLeather just curious.. how many spi and thread size?

[@JnJShiffler]

Noob here. What's the trick to using thread to sharpen/strop the rounded beveler? I have one and cannot get sharp. I tried using 2mm leather cord and 1mm cord with brown, white, then green rougue. What cord do you use? I imagine the thread size varies depending on beveler size?

[@SpringfieldLeather]

We have no problems helping you out. We actually just released a video on this topic. kzbin.infoGmhKw0tx5No Check it out. Andy goes over how to sharpen your beveler using a string. If you still have more questions or need some help, just let us know! 😁

Hey there; whats the glue type for leather and to finish edges? is it something special? some resin?

[@SpringfieldLeather]

We used a contact cement called Vangrip but we no longer carry it. We recommend Renia Aquilim 315 contact cement as an option. www.springfieldleather.com/Renia-Aquilim-315-Contact-Cement As for the edges he used Yankee Wax in Neutral. www.springfieldleather.com/Wax-Yankee-Neutral

I recently made a belt using two pieces of 4-5oz veg tan. I dyed it with Pro dye and finished it with leather balm with atom wax sewed the two pieces together. However when I wore the belt for the first time the leather “wrinkled” is several areas. What can cause this?

[@SpringfieldLeather]

Did you glue the two pieces together? How long did you let the glue set?

[@sawdust3043]

Yes I did glue the two pieces together. I let the glue set until it was tacky, probably 5-7 minutes.

[@taweeta9832]

[@75thteaster54]

Why use two layers and not just one thicker piece of leather wouldn’t that be better instead of gluing two pieces together?

[@burkhardt7372]

The flesh side of leather is very rough, so pulling it through belt loops would be a pain. That's why you use two straps with the smooth side on both out so your belt when worn can adjust and slide when wearing.

Hi Brian! Clayton uses a size 25 heavy stitching needle in this video www.springfieldleather.com/Needle-Machine-3000-Dia-Sz25 . On the top the thread is size 207 and on the bottom the thread is size 138, so realistically you could use anything from a size 24-26. 😊

I respect the craftsman ship that goes into making a belt like this but honestly don't understand an important part of the process. You start with two pieces of thick leather and then at 1:26 skive them both roughly in half. Then you sew them back together, making the assembled piece roughly the same thickness of each original piece. Why bother with this double step? Can't you just use one original piece and save yourself two steps? Thanks again for the video. KB.

[@SpringfieldLeather]

When you cut the 2 pieces in half and glue them together, then you are dealing with 2 parts of top grain leather. So that will make a little stiffer belt than just one thick piece and you won't have to deal with the flesh side on the back.

Wow. He makes it look so easy. I like that copper buckle with the copper rivets. That would be a 2 day+ project for me, for sure. In my defense, I don't have a sewing machine or a powered burnisher. But regardless, I'm a SLUG when it comes to my leather projects. It seems easy in my head, but in actual practice it takes me FOREVER to finish something. You would fire me on day #1, if I ever worked in your leather shop... [🐄🧵] ➕ [🥵⏱️]= 😤🔥🥾🚪

[@ynot0002]

He really does. But honestly the tools help make this. Sure burnishing wouldn’t take real long. However punching and hand stitching would be a chore. Stitching pony to the aid though!!

[@sergeiglubina3620]

Hello! My name is Sergey, I'm from Russia!) I wanted to ask you for advice. I started making leather goods. I use vegetable tanned leather. I buy already dyed leather. Leather without topcoat. I take colored leather and soak it with natural compounds, such as: bone oil, fat, a mixture of waxes. I ran into such a problem. After the leather has been soaked, I remove the remnants of the product with a cloth, and the tissue stains from the leather. That is, the leather (after impregnation) stains the fabric. I was told that after the leather is saturated, it must be covered with a finishing agent. What topcoat is used to create a reliable topcoat. But traditional finishes spoil the naturalness of the leather a little. That is, after applying the finishing agents, natural impregnated leather loses its attractiveness. This makes me very sad. I would like to soak the leather and, possibly, treat the leather with a finishing agent, but in order to preserve the naturalness of the leather. I want to soak and treat the dyed vegetable tanned leather in such a way as to preserve the naturalness of this leather. And most importantly - the leather should not stain the fabric when I wipe the surface of the leather. That is, the finish should be, but it should not spoil the natural properties of the leather. That is, I need: 1) Impregnate the leather with natural means (oil, fat, maybe something else) 2) Protect the leather, cover with a finish coating, but so that the leather does not lose its naturalness. And most importantly - in no case should it stain the fabric. Please advise me - how can I achieve this? Thanks in advance! Best regards, Sergei!

Nice for the craftsman who has $6000+ in tooling and toys. How about doing this belt for the kitchen table craftsman?

[@SpringfieldLeather]

To be fair the electric machines you could purchase for this project would be under $3000 (with what we listed Class 3 and burnisher). But to be completely honest this belt can be done by hand. Maybe we will do a video where we hand stitch and hand burnish.
