When you said to Step it up.... I was thinking adding Antique. Cutting in the 'Seed' was a nice touch. Excellent exercise in Swivel knife control. Turn the D2194 90deg to end the pattern. Then it will be excellent for a book mark or belt/strap. Thanks for sharing.

[@markedis5902]

Nice one Danny, looks really good.

[@Blackpowder-Ben]

Great pattern thank you for sharing. I think that i would put a little seeder stamp right where the cross connects

I'm new to this art superb I loved the video thank you

A while ago, someone on the Chuck Dorset Facebook group suggested practicing stamping with playdoh. It works well 🎉

[@DanielReachCreations]

I've heard that idea before and I think it's an excellent suggestion!

[@snuffysmith7011]

Thanks, Daniel. I always lear something from you. Question, what weight of leather do you NOT stamp or carve. 2 to 3 Oz, 4 to 5 oz?

[@DanielReachCreations]

You can stamp all the way down to a 2oz or so, but obviously you sacrifice depth and rub the risk of punching through.

[@snuffysmith7011]

@DanielReach-TheLeatherVerse Thanks, that is kind of what I thought. I just wanted to check with an expert.

[@user-jo5fz8iw3b]

do you have to seal those slices you put in the leather with the swivel knife, with a water proofing ??

[@DanielReachCreations]

Ideally, yes. But sealing it as you deal the rest of the project will work.

👌🏻👍🏻

[@laurelcook9078]

I can’t afford stamps so I just grab random shit around my house & pound it into the leather. The sides of thumb tacks look interesting.

[@weluvkaito]

That's genius and so creative!! I'm inspired to start hammering things and see what happens, what kinds of other household objects have you tried and felt worked well?

[@aqua7344]

Does this work with faux leather?

[@WeaverLeatherSupply]

We don't have experience with faux leather but there are some videos on KZbin that may help. It looks like heating the faux leather first with a heat gun and then stamping will give you an impression. Hope that helps!

Regarding metric versus standard measurements, bear in mind that there are two types of nations on this planet: those that use the metric system, and one that put a man on the moon.

[@saitamagotchi44]

Because you need to be an astronaut to work outside of base 10

[@markedis5902]

Don’t start on the how great America is as it has more flaws than successes.

[@paulregner5335]

@allan339 We did it not just once, but six times. Refresh my memory please. How many times have other nations landed on the moon?

[@paulregner5335]

@@markedis5902 If you're currently living in America, then maybe you should find another place to live.

[@paulregner5335]

@allan339 Aw, you're just upset that you can't comprehend anything other than base ten measurements. lol
