    TWO New Stitches to Elevate your Leathercraft!
    We usually use the Saddle Stitch on every leathercraft project we make, but there are some different stitch methods you can use to open you craft up to many new shapes! In this video we make a leather pen cup using two of these stitches - the Butt Joint and the Box Joint. These stitches allow you to make 3 dimensional leathercraft projects by joining the leather at right angles or totally flat with no overlap. They take a bit of time to master, but once you've got them down they're totally worth it!

    I'm Brand New to working with Leather Carving (or anything Leather for that matter) and I've been watching hundreds if not thousands of CZcams videos.
    Some are noteworthy while others are just time lapse videos showing someone making Beautiful Works of Art.
    I'm grateful however, for Instructional Videos such as Yours.
    I'm 61 years young and wanting to leave something behind for the Nephews and Nieces to hopefully Learn from (rather than watching someone else play Minecraft on CZcams)
    This is what CZcams is all about, Learning Awesome New Things, whether electronics or how to play a guitar or something like this, Beautiful Leathercraft!!
    Thank You for Your Time as well as for Sharing Your Knowledge with people like Myself, Who's looking for Something New to learn!!
    I appreciate You and Others like You Who share Your Talents with Everyone Who wants to Learn!!
    Thank You Always!! 😊

    I have been avoiding this video for abit but I finally sat down to watch it. I've only been in this craft for a just over year so I have taken the time to master the saddle stitch first (That I initially learned from your channel). I am pretty confident now when I say I can pull off these two new stitches. You explain everything so clearly, and with what I have learned from the channel in the past; everything just made sense, I didn't find myself having to rewind the video at all.

    @Evalyne Před 2 lety +17

    I want to thank you for making these videos. I've been collecting leather tools for about a year and half now but haven't made anything yet. This is because I have a fear that I will mess up the project and get discouraged.
    I've been browing your videos and it has encouraged me to just practice my cuts and stitching first. I have a bag of scraps that I've had lying around that I'm eager to break into and practice.
    Thank you again!

      When you finally do please upload a pic or short video. Doesn’t matter if you love it or loath it helps motivate others in your position. I’m way behind you just a love for learning and leather that lead me here. Hopefully I’ll find myself the tools soon too.

      @bwood6337 Před 2 lety +3

      Personally, when starting something new like this I like to think of the first attempts at practice runs where I assume it'll be a mess and just try to learn as much as possible while making said mess.
      If it’s not a mess then that's just a pleasant surprise.

      It’s not great, he does it wrong. You make the holes only on your me pane and awl through to the other piece. He had too many extra holes on the bottom piece because he didn’t use an awl.

  • @Tipi_Dan
    @Tipi_Dan Před 2 lety +4

    Nice tricks.
    Lately, I've been using heavy vegtan multi-layered, glued first, one side heavily grooved for recessed stitching, stitch holes drilled through with a Dremel tool, then bottom side grooved along stitch holes. You can make some indestructible stuff.

      Lo que ni entiendo es el ángulo de la lezna para que llega a la misma línea.

    • @susantipsyhealy7655
      @susantipsyhealy7655 Před rokem

      This is first time I got it. But like he said, practice. Hold the awl straight toward the hole with ur wrist low . 45° angle. I found a little cheater for that using a thin wedge of wood at a 45° angle until muscle memory takes over. A hardware store should have some in a package. Lightly sand it on both sides and apply a spray finish on both sides to keep from marking the leather.
      Than use the awl braced against the thumb pad the gently push the blade through by moving your entire arm forward. (Lock your wrist) But only until the tip of the blade just passes through the edge of leather.
      Seems like a lot to remember, but really not, once muscle memory takes over you will be able to do this at a decent steady pace.

    very nice demonstration of leather stitching! this will be helpful for me, as i am planing to make similar cylinders out of leather to use as sectional walking stick holders when they are disassembled. its one of two ideas for such a holder than i want to try and make. with the other being more like a tool wrap with some sort of clip lath to close, and both with some sort of shoulder strap or belt loop to secure with while in use. in any case though, i am more confident in being able to make them now that i have another nice video tutorial to watch and follow along with when designing my project idea. so thanks =)
