Seat [Budget Bobber] ENG

[@anderslarsson1411]

This is exactly how bobber and choppers should be done, with passion and soul! Nothing you just bolt on, taken from the shelf! keep up the good work!

[@fokinlordsamaels]

anders larsson thank you)

[@DavidSanchez-b9m]

Great craftsmanship! I might try it myself, but its a lot of work.

[@fokinlordsamaels]

main reason to do it yourself is satisfaction of making it by yourself. if you want something faster or cheaper, just buy it from china, but i doubt it will bring you joy.

[@kunalkulkarni542]

Awesome craftsmanship !!! Thank you for sharing.

[@glitterbrains69]

Man, I've stitched that way so many times, the burnt tip is like a needle, very useful. Good stuff

[@fokinlordsamaels]

im glad, thank you

[@penguinproductions7014]

Excellent craftsmanship! I was looking for a very basic tips video and found this! You’re Way way too skilled and experienced for me to use on my first attempt but thanks for sharing your skills! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 great Work!

[@fokinlordsamaels]

Im glad my video helps you, but it really was my first hand stiched seat, so i believe you can do it too.

[@ptinne]

Not going to lie, I was questioning some of your processes. But that came out amazing. Great work.

[@fokinlordsamaels]

thank you

[@chrisstewart3768]

That looks great. Especially for that being your first hand-stitched seat. Great video.

Thank you very much

[@thedreadedwhitenoise8743]

I'm not a fan of springer seats on a sprung rear end but you sir are a very good craftsman. Well done!

[@VoodooViking]

Looks great! Also copper wire would look really nice for the laces, especially if you had riveted it down.

@@fokinlordsamaels Thank you, have found it.

[@csarmartez5175]

How therapeutic - awesome work. Not that it would matter to you, but although the seat resting inside the tank cutout is a very nice touch, have you considered sliding the seat back for a more free-float effect - So the entire seat is visible? How I wish I had access to that machine shop. That there's a $700+ custom saddle - ee z. :)

[@fokinlordsamaels]

Thank you, actually it was a regular garage, not machine shop, nothing really too fancy)) about overall design, i think that i have to make entire new gas tank (not 100% happy with existing one)

[@csarmartez5175]

@@fokinlordsamaels Would have been nice to see a full shot of the bike with the seat on but I'm in agreement with you, maybe another tank allowing a separation would be the way to go. Nice work man!

I love the choice in stiching colors. I had an idea for you as well. What about adding some fiber optics lights to a seat build?

[@fokinlordsamaels]

a lot of people already hate led string in seat, fiber optic could definitely light up some assez

[@joaokyraportugal62]

Hardly a budget. With all them fabrication tools is definitely not a budget build. I did mini out of a nicked traffic sign with a grinder a hammer and a drill in my back garden. This guy has proper metallurgical build tools.

[@fokinlordsamaels]

imagine i could cut my seat out with a grinder instead of plasma, it wont change much, just my pieces of steel costs the same as your nicked trafic sign (nothing) i made it from same crap i found on street with leather, that has been cut out of streed dumped coach.

For a second I thought you were grinding without goggles... I was like, Oh man, he hasn't dug enough pieces of metal our of his eyes yet... I have had steel sparks get into my eyes in the most incredible of ways.. Bounce off my cheek, off the lens of the goggles and into my eye where it hits the optic fluid and instantly cools from a liquid state to a solid and welds itself to your eye. Nothing like a rust ring in your eye the following morning - at least it helps you find it to jam a q-tip in there a 'scrape' it out. Lord knows I DO NOT miss that BS!! Anyway - Nice work brother.

[@fokinlordsamaels]

thank you, many years ago i got something in my eye and couldnt wash or rub it out. in a while the old man came to me and offered help to releave me from suffering a very bizzare way. can you imagine what he did? (how he managed to get it out)

[@ryanchester1189]

I failed in making tbe impression. I believe it was because I used a cheap glue spray. Can somebody that was successful tell me what type of glue you used for your impressions??

[@fokinlordsamaels]

you have to leave glue to "dry" a little, before press pieces of leather together, i think that was your fail?

[@frankyantosca4990]

Fellow Craftsman, first I would like to say you have a very interesting video! Your methods are very creative and I love the way you got your "stone pattern" and logo. But I must ask, it seems you put a lot of faith in spray adhesive. After watching 2 of your videos I am certain these are not your first seats so, I must ask how tried and tested is the spray adhesive for longevity? I spend over $25 per quart for Barge cement because I am worried about the adhesive breaking down and letting go. What is the oldest seat you have made to be certain the glue doesn't breakdown after many miles of hard riding? Great video and great shop!

[@fokinlordsamaels]

In fact i made just 3 seats in my life and dont really understand what you mean as adhesive breaking? Seat covers are secured by rivets or sewn as on this video, so what could go wrong?)

[@frankyantosca4990]

@@fokinlordsamaels I mean the various layers separating which would cause the foam to bunch or shift. Of course, the stitching and rivets will hold it all together. I was just wondering if you ever experienced any of the internal layers separating? I just worry about all that gorgeous carving and dying you have done. Maybe I'm overly paranoid. It wouldn't be the first time. Very pretty work.

[@fokinlordsamaels]

Frank Yantosca i had a seat for some years with leather fixed to foam on same spray glue, when i decided to remade it (basically with this one bike) i had to rip ir off from foam and it was not easy

[@cliffordharley4322]

Nice work! Are you using chrome or vegetable tanned leather? The double saddle stitch that you are using is the best one to use. I use a Dremmel to drill the holes for stitching. I make holsters, harness and bike bags and seats also.
