Tango Yankee I am so glad to hear that something in this video might help you out of a bind. Thanks for the kind review W-T-F

[@doingitoutdoors7083]

Like I said before, I don't even do leather work, yet. But I'm somehow addicted to these videos. I guess I'll have to add leather work to my 10,000 hobbies. George's down home nature and common sense approach are inspiring.

[@viktorgeorge9144]

[@lphantman]

wonderful information . Learned a few new things even after many decades of leather work/ Thanks for taking the time to produce these information rich videos.

[@viktorgeorge9144]

That is very kind of you to say Richard Thanks for taking a moment of your day to leave a positive comment. Here’s to us old timers in leatherwork🙌

[@blueshirtmonday]

I love these videos that you're doing Victor. These are genuinely helpful. I'm really tired of all the over-produced leather craft videos that really don't teach anything. Many of these people are now "content creators" and "influencers" instead of craftsmen. Please stay real my friend.

[@viktorgeorge9144]

Another excellent video!

[@viktorgeorge9144]

Thank you John!

[@angrylittledwarf]

I like the 12 ton press. I currently use an old book press which works pretty well, just takes a little muscle

[@viktorgeorge9144]

I’ve always wanted an old book press for leatherwork Adds some shop flavor!!

[@larryschmidt3594]

These tips and tricks videos are fantastic. I will be making some wax cakes in the near future. I have bees wax already for inside leather jugs and canteens. Thanks again for a great series.

[@viktorgeorge9144]

Right on Larry! I appreciate the nod my friend I need to make a leather vessel some day. Thanks

A cupcake or muffin tin works great for wax molds.

[@viktorgeorge9144]

Sorry for late reply. Great idea Do you line them with paper first. I have a small muffin pan I’ll try it with. Thank you Wade

Thank you Scott for taking a moment to say so. It’s genuinely appreciated

[@alaskagary240]

Excellent where do you get your beeswax. I have only found small amounts not bulk like yours

[@viktorgeorge9144]

Thank you AG!! Much appreciated. We have roadside vendors who sell honey and I found a source by asking them if the beekeepers sell their wax.

[@baciliozamora2552]

Sir, what kind of abrasive wheel do you use to sharpen your tools,

[@viktorgeorge9144]

Muslin sewed wheel with green rouge

[@isaacaleman7605]

Do you have a website where I can check your products?

[@viktorgeorge9144]

Hello Isaac Unfortunately no I have retired from commission work and now I’m focusing on KZbin giving tutorials for the new makers My “Knife Sheath School” volumes 1-12 are posted and more to follow If you’re looking for anything in particular I can refer you to some quality Makers

[@isaacaleman7605]

@@viktorgeorge9144 ok thank you for reply back. I would love to have one of your sheath they’re beautiful 😔. I’m going to keep watching your videos for sure. I’m planning on start doing some leather crafts inspired on your videos.

[@k9six185]

What advantages do you get from mixing beeswax and the paraffin?

[@viktorgeorge9144]

Sorry for the delay. The paraffin softens the harder beeswax making for smoother applications and a nicer waxed edge. It’s the industry standard for leatherwork

[@Lorddanielrushton371]

Great tips and tricks. What do you use the spent shotgun shells for?

[@viktorgeorge9144]

A 20 gauge shell inside a 12 gauge shell full of match sticks for a bushcraft outdoor project Thanks for watching and your kind comment🙌
