My not-so-epic Leathercraft Workshop

[@SpringbokCraftCo]

Should I audition for SNL?

[@jaguarjim5456]

You are almost as funny as my wife... NOT... lol

[@johnnyc.5979]

Your humor is Arid extra dry. Like the anti-perspirant. But it was funny nevertheless.

[@geekslovenerdsdo]

Love all the dad-jokes ^_^

[@daviddoyle2738]

Audition yes, accept the job no.

[@Noname-bq4qc]

The jokes made me subscribe… I love it. I’m making a shop for leather craft. It’s a small shop and I’m glad I took inspiration from this video

[@kumihi5988]

I stumbled here. Unexpected dad jokes. 😂 Sending Love from Idaho. ❤

[@SpringbokCraftCo]

Thanks for staying through the bad jokes!

[@JoeF330]

[@DJAlexAz]

You are hilarious. Thanks for the grand tour

[@dannyl2598]

Thanks. Love the one liners.

[@HeidiATX]

Great tour - and your workshop is absolutely epic. You're also very funny - great video and great tips!

[@charissecolbert7204]

I love her humor! Great video, very nice workshop

[@ronniekotler9265]

You are so funny, you made me laugh, my wife walked by and asked what I was laughing at. Thank you.

[@jenkins1979]

Just watched your not so epic workshop...I love your videos.I have a leather workshop very much like yours except,I have a combo bench press,lat pull down and leg extension sitting in the middle and NO window in that part of basement .Thank you for the video.

[@craftendemic]

I hope someday have leather workshop like this. Inspired

[@drkmelon]

great use of space 😀 love seeing all the fancy expensive stuff added over the years as I only have some basic things just starting out

[@SpringbokCraftCo]

Thank you! It's definitely not an overnight thing. But definitely don't need the fanciest tools to start out with :) or even to have a full time business with.

[@theartsypixie2771]

Yes this is an epic workshop. I'm doing as I'm looking at that press, the dies, and that sewing machine. 🤤🤤🤤

[@gypsycruiser]

Love your wit ..

[@redriverbluesman]

Great ideas, appreciate the tour. I aspire to have a space similar someday. You should become a standup comedian, you have the best punchlines!! They left me in stiches! : )

[@tonyobyrne1846]

Love the sense of humour😊

[@ARDELEAN.Designs]

I like your workshop

[@imhambali2443]

My dream always want a workshop like that for my hobby craft😌

[@hellaradusername]

I like your tip with the concrete forming tubes for leather storage. I've been storing my leather in the boxes it ships in but they're kinda crushable when you stack up a couple. I have an arbor press for riveting and I put a strong magnet on front to hold my rivet setter, it's harder to lose this way and speeds things up when I have a bunch of rivets to set. I cut a lot of straps and the best small space way I've found to do it is a plastic folding table. You can store the table when you're not using it and it doubles as something you can use at live events. I was using a 4' steel ruler to square the edges before using a strap cutter, but recently got an 8' cutting guide (can be taken apart to be a 4' cutting guide) at Home Depot, it was like $25 and came with two C clamps (which don't fit my table, but still nice).

[@SpringbokCraftCo]

great tips Ted. Might have to try that magnet tip. Thanks for watching!

[@austincrews7575]

Agreed! There were many great take-away's from the vid, but I will definitely also be incorporating the concrete tubes in my setup!

[@bfinney479]

Love this! I am so glad I found your site, how uplifting! Oh, and informative!

[@PirateGoods]

Woah! That’s an amazing idea with a sliding board for clicker press. I need to make something similar in my workshop🤔

[@SpringbokCraftCo]

thanks so much! it's been a gamechanger

[@PirateGoods]

@@SpringbokCraftCo And I guess a bit of challenge task💪 I’m also have about 100 square feet workshop, and it’s always a challenge to find a space for new tool/shelf or anything else🤣

[@JeremyMoore1]

Great video! thanks for sharing

[@pushpavardhana]

Same 2 juki and a skiving i too have but with extra clicker, we both have similar setup🙌

[@jamessheehan2694]

very nice video . thank you!

[@tughilldog]

you are delightfully punny!! Can you do a video on how you are using your one ton arbor press? I recently added one to my leathercraft shop and would L❤VE to see how you two are using yours!!

[@zedsyzygy205]

Just discovered your channel and I loved then tour. I'm in the process of growing my hobby (obsession) into a retirement income, and you gave me a lot of ideas on tools I'll want to invest in. Working out of a former guest bedroom about the same size as your space, I'd thought I'd have to find a bigger spot but I think I just need to become more efficient in layout. Thanks for some wonderful ideas. Also enjoyed the stand-up routine (don't forget to tip your waitstaff)

[@xanderlutz7856]

I hope you all find all the great success you so richly deserve. Love the jokes.

[@LifeJourneyYall]

Love your Space, I am stealing the Concrete Form Idea, Thanks!

[@rockymountainman]

Such a great video!! It’s great to see another leathercraft company come from the exact same roots! Keep up the fantastic work!!! (Common Good Leathercraft)

[@esperanzaochoa9726]

I just subscribed. You are hilarious ! Your workshop is so organized and sweet! You made fabulous use for a small space. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. It is encouraging and appreciated ! Blessings

[@tonyesposito2175]

Awesome video, more awesome sense of humor 😂

[@s.t.6769]

Awesome. I'm newish to leather crafting (mostly make shoes) and my current work shop is my dining room table... No more dinner parties at our house! Ok, let's be real: we don't really throw dinner parties, but still...:) Anyway -- looking to DIY myself a work studio shed in the backyard. Thanks for the tour and tips. Your shop seems well 'furnaced'.... (that actually make me laugh out loud). Good luck with your shop!

[@steveposey8446]

Hi. Love the puns. What is the connection with springbok. ...SA perhaps? I'm an expat in Halifax just getting started in leatherworking.

[@SpringbokCraftCo]

Thank you! I'm not from South Africa, but I know it's near and dear to the people of SA. The name Springbok is actually an homage to my parents.

[@SVtgr8]

Hi. Why the name Springbok Craft Co?

[@JWheeler331]

The jokes !!!! Haha

[@journeywithin6274]

I notice you have both wooden based and acrylic based die cuts. Which one you think is more durable and perform better ? I'm thinking to make one but not sure which to choose as I never use before.

[@SpringbokCraftCo]

I feel like durability is not too different, but the acrylic is just so much better because you can see the leather you're punching. It's much easier to maximize space with the acrylic. And you can also much more easily position it around parts of the leather that's not usable.

[@journeywithin6274]
