Leather Wrapping - 3 Easy Techniques

[@enricopasetti6684]

Wow! The third wrap that you showed is exactly the kind of handle wrap that I was looking for my longbow. Man, this is not the first time that you give me inspiration.👍

[@SkillTree]

Great to hear! Glad I can be of some help to you!😁

[@rezynrogue1309]

Dude.. I saw this video a while ago and now I need to be reminded before Saturday!!! Watching again, thank you for the save.

[@wolfwoodworkingcreations4321]

You are not ready for your knot tying test for the Navy. I spent weeks doing all that on in many handrails aboard my ship while in the Navy. there are so many more. Awesome as always.

[@lucaf5255]

i just needed i way to securely wrap my sword and your video was easy and effective, thank you so much

[@dustydarkhorse]

Just bought a stilletto framing hammer and the third wrap is EXACTLY what i'm looking for, thanks

[@lorieknight8514]

I'm obsessed!! These are great. You have a new fan!! Thank you so much!!

[@kristinharris6101]

Thank you! Used the 2nd braid for a witch staff and this was so easy go follow :)

[@johnsullivan6560]

The spiraling one is call French whipping..makes great coverage on sword handles or with rope on walking staves or staffs. The second has the added benefit of being able to quickly untied get the cordage back. Great video!

[@KolesarTUBE]

Fantastic ideas! Love them all! Looking forward to not only repairing my bag handles but making it pop with two colors.

[@KarlRoyale]

For decorative wraps you can add beads to any cord by feeding a bite through the bead hole then push the working end through the bite. It locks the bead in place and you can do it at any point. Great video!

[@SkillTree]

That's a great idea!

[@embodyharmonics]

I really wish I could see a video of this... did you mean to use the word 'bite'? Or did you you mean feed a BIT? The bead hole would have to be big enough for whatever cord you were wrapping, no?

[@brianlilleyfilms]

This was an excellent video!

[@unknownerorr2740]

Great vid, love the energy

[@CreachterZ]

Awesome! I just ordered a walking stick and I’m going to use the second one on it. Thanks!

[@FIFAHOBO]

I'm gonna use the third wrap style to wrap my cane handle hope I can learn it

[@SkillTree]

I believe in you!

[@alexandermoran7783]

Thanks for the new lesson it was easy to understand good job

[@SkillTree]

Good! I am always worried tutorials like this one are hard to follow. Never sure if I explain them clearly.

[@alexandermoran7783]

You did a great job and I've been watching for a while now I can't even remember how long a go I started watching but I seen like all almost your videos

[@LilithLi13]

You’re absolutely Adorable! So fun to watch and I love what you’re teaching-sweet craftworks! 🌟🖤🌟

[@robertryden8036]

The first wrap is what we in the Navy called "Fancy Work" wraps. It's used on solid horizontal railings and upright stantions to give grip during inclimate weather. A couple years ago. I made a flail using a 2"x12" rod, wrapped with fancy work. Attached to it was a "sennent knot chain also known as a "Lanyard" with a "Monkeys Fist" at the end. Got a pretty penny for it.

[@mcbdswoodheper9566]

Very sick I’ll def use these on my next build 👌

[@SkillTree]

Let me know how it turns out!

[@MisterKairos825]

Hey! Question, what to do if it’s a stainless steel handle? Wouldn’t it slip?

[@happyyardservice2914]

Thank you

[@porkchopulator]

Hell yeah, man. Gonna do this to my camping axe and my hurley.

[@SkillTree]

Sweet! I hope you share how it comes out!

[@porkchopulator]

@@SkillTree will do. Still working on my knife sheath, though. Might be a few days or, like... a week.

[@SkillTree]

Glad you like them! Thank you for watching!

[@paulgarwacki4714]

Great instructional video, I followed your steps and got a nice job done. Thanks

[@keetonmitchell4669]

Going to try these with wire work to see how they apply. Should be pretty good though perhaps not quite as tight looking. Also, that first one looks like you could do it without looping the material by just feeding the working end under itself as you go around, but depending on what you are applying it to/the length of the cord, it works either way, so whatever suits your needs. I want to use them for a bow grip or perhaps a knife grip. Experimentation is now in my near future

[@utardaheidinn9048]

Nice! Will definitely be doing this in a future project!

[@SkillTree]

Glad you found it useful!

[@tiny-grimes]

[@tiny-grimes]

@@SkillTree hmm depends if you have return what once was hers… and it was nice

[@danthemandiyallday1160]

Awesome. Mine don’t look nearly as clean. Very good video.

[@rockinrswoodshop]

These are also awesome wraps to do in paracord, and opens up a lot more colors.

[@SkillTree]

I totally agree! A lot of those wraps also translate to leather if you want. Good skill to learn.

[@jamesmcleod6918]

You should try the first wrap with a 1/8 in leather strip. Mine came out amazing.

[@raazor2]

I'm looking at 2 mm round leather wrapping, 2 colors for the 2 stranded ring hitch. I just don't know how much length is needed. Can you tell me please?

[@BartJBols]

Where did you get that kind of thick cord from? the bedroom?

[@SkillTree]

It took a while to get it off of the headboard but I am glad I did! I think it helped the demonstration a lot!

[@spaceranger137]

amazing!

[@SkillTree]

Thank you!

[@francoislajoie7406]

You should make a leather whip. I hope you have a lot of time on your hands. I made a 10’ whip and it took me about 20 hours.

[@SkillTree]

I REALLY want to. I need some roo hide to do it right though. Expensive stuff.

[@timgleaves9496]

Cool new trick! Thanks for the info. I will have to try it out. Where did you purchase your leather cord from?

[@SkillTree]

Hope it works out for you! I think I got the cordage from Michaels to be honest.

[@ramspencer5492]

Where do you get the leather cord?

[@LitoGeorge]

For the amount of whipping you did in the 3rd example, how long must each cord be? What diameter cord are those? TX!

[@mudawott]

have you ever thought of doing any 3d printing its a neat skill

[@TotalPamarchy]

Nifty! Those hammers are gorgeous now - maybe even worthy of Thor :)

[@SkillTree]

Huzzah! My hammers are mighty and beautiful 😁

[@TotalPamarchy]

@@SkillTree loooool

[@JoshuaSwan_Raven-and-Hammer]

Think these wraps would translate well with flat leather?

[@billyrichmond8493]

How long a length should you start with for #3?

[@Gator-357]

These are all paracord handle wraps. The first one is called French Whipping. The second one is a lock knot or weave and is used to have a hank of cordage available that is easily released by pulling on one side and unravelling it. There are hundreds of types of handle wraps from the extremely simple and basic to the more complex and involved. The easiest wrap is to simply whip the entire handle which leaves a flat wrap.

[@alexandergames9164]

I want that shirt "this is how I roll" but with a picture of a pill with a transformer indentation

[@wendylorimer5663]

Would you not wet the leather so when it dries it tightens?

[@dolphinlunasol3486]

Could you potentially make a bracelet out of this?

[@DonaldMcDaniel-c4l]

👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@jpeero]

i used this for my quest 2 controllers

[@DarthKitsune]

A Crochet Hook could make the spiral wrap a little easier if you were wrapping around a necklace or a circle with crochet thread.

@@SkillTree The start of the second wrap really looked like a mermaid tie. And the intonation with which you said "mighty blacksmithing hammers of gorgeousness" reminded me of his Patreon shoutouts at the end of each video.
