That's cool, I used to tattoo flesh, always wondered if that was possible. Now sky's the limit

I don't see it necessarily replacing anything. I do see it as a new tool that will bring a basket full of new options to any project. As it gets used by more people we will learn new and exciting ways to combine this with long established tools and techniques. I am looking forward to adding this to my bench.

Been doing similar with a Dremel engraver for some time. It takes an 1/8” bit in a collet so I made a bunch of different tools from a piece of tool steel rod. One advantage is its mains powered and its standard bit is great for bevelling

Thank you for covering many of the questions that popped for me when I first saw the video title. After I blow an unpredictable amount of time and money trying to make one, I might buck up and get the real thing. That’s my usual routine. Best to you.

@katieyoder2192 2 ай бұрын

Great idea, but isn't the engraving tool more of a rotary motion? Whereas this is a "tapping" or "tamping.?" I'm intrigued by your method, but my question is, are you actually "beveling" your lines or are you griding material away? Or holding at an angle and letting the rotation of the tip burnish the bevel as you move the tool along? ... Also, I want to know more about the little blue dye and brush holder he was using! :) ✌❤

This is a great introduction. I am imagining a combo of traditional tooling and tattooling. I can't wait to see what you do with it next.

OLD Leather Smith here, GREAT DANIEL, I will add it 2 my tools, it will B an interesting addition. Music OK, BUT I PREFER HEARING WHAT THE TOOL SOUND'S LIKE. paint OK. I usually only use DYE, my preference. God's Blessings ✝️ 🥎 🙃

Great video. In my experience its a great addition to the toolbox. I find it a great tool to use in addition to traditional tooling as opposed to as a replacement. Thats not to say it couldn't work by itself, but I still like the swivel knife and traditional bevels better for some applications. I have played with the tattooling machine for quite some time, and can see the benefits, and some areas that it doesn't (at least for me) work as well as traditional tooling. All in all i would say if you are on the fence, go for it. its fun to use and can give you effects that would be difficult if not impossible to do with traditional tools.

Funny you mentioned arthritis, that is a concern for me. I'm 65 yrs old and just starting to learn tooling. How intense is the vibration on the tattooling machine? The vibration and the sheer size of the tool could be problematic for me.

As I've gotten older I've found my hands less and less cooperative when tooling. This looks promising. I look forward to seeing and learning more before purchase.

Daniel, is the Tattoo tool laying down ink or is it burning the leather? Is it like programs? Not sure exactly what it does?

@DanielReachCreations 2 ай бұрын

The "needles" are moving in and out really fast, but they aren't actually penetrating the leather. There's no ink...its just burnish. No programs other than the fact you can set the speed with the +/-. The higher the number, the fastert the needle moves. Everything else is up to you. 😀

I’m still on the fence about this tool. I am very interested to see you use it in conjunction with traditional tooling. I feel like it might help get those tiny details in places where it’s hard to fit a tool. But just by itself it doesn’t look as good as your normal work.

@stevenwalters3639 2 ай бұрын

What do the tips actually look like? Do you need to orient them like a traditional tool?

@WeaverLeatherSupply 2 ай бұрын

The tips that come with the kit all have rounded tips and do not need to be oriented. We will be launching additional tips down the road that you will likely need to orient like a traditional tool. Hope that helps!

I actually have a question about the fiebings antique you applied. I've been using that stuff for over a decade and it always turns ashy when it dries unless i cut it with tan kote. It looks like you're applying it straight from the jar! Are you doing anything special to it?

@DanielReachCreations 2 ай бұрын

I've never experienced that, but I've heard it's very common. I always re-seal my antique with Tan Kote, which might be why I don't have that issue. Might try that. 😊

@maddockmalys 2 ай бұрын

@@DanielReachCreations Thanks! Yeah, I've tried applying Tan Kote afterwards and it didn't solve the issue, but maybe I'll revisit the technique. In general, thinning the antique with Tan Kote works well, it just means the paste is more of a gel consistency. Often that's exactly what I want, but not always.

Still not sure about this tool. Feels like a novelty. But if someone had limited mobility in their hands or just didn't want to learn traditional tooling this would be good.

@robwagner7545 3 ай бұрын

My disability makes standing or sitting for an extended time painful, so I could see the benefits of using this in place of a swivel + bevel. That said, I can't imagine I would ever get the same results as I do with my traditional tools.

@blueshirtmonday 3 ай бұрын

@robwagner7545 I could see how it would help. Have you tried the Dremel engraving tool? Basically the same thing for $25

If you're still on the fence, let's get a few more videos in and see how you feel. Might not be right for you. Maybe after I use it in a few more projects you'll see a way that might really benefit you. 😊
