Making a Leather Wallet! - The DeNiro

- čas přidán 13. 08. 2019
- Making a leather wallet, the DeNiro, start to finish. This version of the DeNiro wallet has a couple of slight modifications from the classic version, per the client’s request. Most wallets I’m able to make changes to, if asked.
Enjoy the process!

The best resource for starting the leatherworking process:
Zach over at Zeebee Leather has posted the two best articles I’ve seen for beginning leather crafters. And to be honest, even seasoned crafters will find useful information they hadn’t thought of.
Part 1:

I am on the waiting list for December of this year and I absolutely cannot wait for my DeNiro! I’ve had to save up $$ to make the purchase (they are not cheap, nor should they be….) and it means a great deal to me that someday I will own my beautiful wallet.

Your channel is my favorite. Looking for two things. 1. That big stitch hole punch. 2. The hand clamp you use to press the ends together when glueing. Ty
Very nice! Glad to see the videos.
I appreciate the support! Be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already.
Saludos excelente trabajo y excelente costura a mano 👍👍👍

Thanks!!
Picture had me mesmerized! That’s not fair playing to my greatest weakness!!!
😆. 🤘
Very beautiful
I really appreciate that!
Gorgeous piece! Your videos are fun to watch and I appreciate that you do so much by hand including the edge burnishing! When you took out your glue pot, for a second I thought it was an old Atari joystick! Now I’m showing my age 😂🤟🏻
😆 I used that Atari as well. I’m 51 or 52. Ha.
Thank you for sharing another mesmerizing video. I just love watching you work. You make it look so easy, but with those great "tools" I'm sure that makes a difference. Your quality is outstanding an I appreciate you actually taking the time to respond to us. (Not like someone else out there.) Glad to be a fan of your work. Can hardly wait for your next one. :)

Hello, can't get enough of your leather videos. Was wondering if you make your patterns available for us DIY folks that would love a challenge?
Thanks for the kind words!!!

Great job on the wallet. I love the attention to detail. I have been leather working for many years. One of the biggest issues I have is finding a cutting knife I like. The one you use looks like it would work well for me. Can you tell me where I can find one? Keep up the great content.
Thanks. NT cutter pro on amazon. There will be a link in my next video.
Wow!
I appreciate that!
Try watching this at 2x playback speed....it's amazing. It's like 'The Elves and the Shoemaker' fairy tale.
Lol
Love your work, have watched a few videos. Can I ask what is the little black handled tool you use at 5 minutes into the video?
Rougher tool
So nice😍
Thank you!
Hi there! Beautiful wallet you've made!
I'd like to ask, what's that tool you used at 5:12?
Thank you!
It’s a leather rougher
Felicitaciones por tus trabajos!
Tus vídeos son una gran inspiración.
Me gustaría saber cuál es el espesor del material de cuero que utilizaste en esta billetera.
Saludos desde Argentina!
Thanks for the kind words! 5/6 oz
I really enjoy leathercraft
Me too
Hey, thanks for all the awesome content that you put out for us. I enjoy all of your videos and have watched many more than once. In a future video, can you please show us your way of locking in your thread when you thread your needles? Your videos are always running at high speed at that point.
I showed it at regular speed in the last video. It’s just once through. So it’s quick. Simple. Easy
@@MasconLeather thank you
I enjoy your work and I feel inspired to try more of my own small efforts. May I ask where you obtained your skiving knife? Thank you.
Thanks. Skiver- search for Ibex ironworks on Instagram.
@@MasconLeather Thanks very much for your rapid response, I'll have a look.
Great work! I love the details!! I would like to start creating wallets. Could you guide me from where could I buy the leather and what sizes it should have?
Thanks !! I use horween leather. See my burning questions video. I discuss leather there.
Супер класс, работа высший пилотаж)
Google translation - Super class, aerobatics
Thanks!
wow it is amazing work. do you have this wallet patter?
Beautiful and helpful!
Have you ever tried using those cheap thin rollable cutting boards for your templates? I just did this recently and couldn't believe it took me that long to do. Saves me hours of re-cutting templates when the cardboard gets sloppy.
I have. They’re great. But I’m usually in a hurry and grab what’s available
I couldn't help but chuckle when I saw the cereal box. I still use them for prototyping :D
Great work!! what thickness leather do you use?
Thanks! 5/6
Hi, what tool do you use to scratch the edge before apply glue? 5:00
It’s a standard crafttool rougher my son made a custom handle for. 👍
What is the tool used to scrape the edges of the leather?
It’s a rougher. My son makes a lot of my tools.
Hi. Your working is amazing. I'm new for leather working. How can i find template your working.
Thanks for the kind words! I don’t sell my designs
Great job and thanks for sharing. What’s the leather you’re using?
Thanks! Horween leather
Thanks so much for the reply. Great job with your channel. Big fan
Very nice work! congrats! May i ask you where do you buy the leather from? :D
Thank you! Horween.
Dear Sir.
Your videos have inspired me to work with leather. I really liked the DeNiro model. What kind of leather do you use for this model? Thanks
Horween
Good afternoon. It's very beautiful. Share patterns of this purse please .
Just saw your
video beautiful work
What kind of leather do you use in the weight
Excellent as always! I’m intrigued by your squares and straight edges that you use to line up your patterns on the work piece. Are they something that can be bought or did you have them made? I’ve used a similar process in my own work but in the past I usually use whatever wood I had on hand. I’d really like to get something like what you’re using as it would be easier to use in my new indoor workspace.
Thanks! I actually had these squares made by a machinist.
At 6:49... what is that called? A stamp? And where can I get one made?
Do you sell templates for any of your work? Totally understandable if you don't, just thought I would ask! Gorgeously crafted.
Thank you!! No, I don’t sell my designs.
I need this wallet
Just contact me at artimus71@gmail.com
Nice. Looks good man! How do you like rubbing those inside edges?
Despise is a better word. 😆
@@MasconLeather Haha yeah, they are a pain. Happy crafting out there!
What brand of stitching chisels do you use?
Kevin lee
Man how did CZcams know I hate my wallet and my papa taught me leather working? I might have to try this
🤘🤘
New to leatherwork, can you tell me the weights of leather you used on this project?
4 oz
perfect. woowww
Thanks!
Супер.
Красиво получилось есди бы еще и размеры кроя то было бы совсем классно
Hey! May I ask what kind of product/technique you use on the edges? How do you get it really nice, flat and shiny? I use tokonole and dont get it so nice. And How do you prevent the glue from squeezing out between the layers to ruin the edges? Would love to learn more from you!
Thanks for watching! If you use barge cement, there’s no spillage. Always use barge.
Edge work takes more time than assembly. It’s process and patience required. Also, every hide reacts differently to techniques
Thank you for this reply.
🤘
I want this wallet
Contact me directly and we can start the process. 👍
I hope i have this kind of wallet 🙏🙏
👍
Does the skiving knife have the bevel on it or do you control the angle of the thinning?
Both. I had this one custom made and bent to my preference by Ibex iron works.
Mascon Leather Bad ass! Thanks for the reply!
Absolutely!
Do you have wallet patterns templates. For all your different wallets
Trabalho linfo
Beautiful work
Bom dia. Bonito seu trabalho. O molde está disponível?
English?
Where do you get those large pricking irons?
Do you make them?
Kevin lee makes them.
Thank you sir
Hey man. That's some sweet work. What did you do to burnish the edges? That leather looked like horween dublin.
It’s horween Dublin
Mascon Leather nice. It looked like it. I am having the hardest time getting a burnish. Any tips?
Hey im pretty new to leathercraft and a lil late to the party, but ive heard of waxes and wooden tools, but ive taken to just wetting the edge and then rubbing vigorously until its burnished, and it works pretty well IMO, i hope this helped
And every leather is different. I’ve used saddle soap, beeswax, pariphin wax, spit, wood, denim, canvas, etc etc. it’s always different depending on the leather. But yes, spit works
What kind of leather did you use and what oz? Also. Very very nice.
5/6 oz Horween
I now must play with Horween leather. Looks soooo good. I mostly use veg tan leather, myself, but after this. I must have this leather in my possession. Thanks mate.
How many times I’ve skived right through pocket pieces and ruined them… 🙄 Trying something with this many flaps would be terrifying or great practice. Loving the design - beautiful work as always
Right?!?! It takes time to get to where you don’t mess up every other one. 😆
😅
Amazing, would you mind to share the pattern ? I'm still learning tho
Thanks! I don’t sell my designs
Where i can buy this tool? 5:00 And what glue using?
It’s a rougher. Hand made by my son. We’re working on a new line of tools .... so it may be available soon.
Can you provide a link to the rivets? Thank you very much
Buckleguy, weaver, etc
Hi. What is leather type you are use?
Horween
Do you have a pattern that you would sell for this wallet
No
Just discovered your CZcams page. Really enjoy your work. Well done! What stitching irons are you using in this video, if you're able to answer? Thanks.
thanks!!! My 15 teeth chisels are custom made by Kevin lee.
@@MasconLeather They look well built. I'll have to look into them, if that's possible. Again, love your videos. Great work.
I appreciate you watching!!
@@MasconLeather I currently been using the Sinabrok European style pricking irons on 1 ounce leather, but they seem to work much better with thicker leather; not so well on thinner pieces. I've temporarily switched to a very cheap pair of diamond irons that work better, but they're only 4 teeth, so it's very difficult to get a consistent straight line on a large area. These look like they would work perfectly. Thanks again for the information.
Check eBay. Tons of 10 teeth diamond chisels on eBay.
I woulda bet $ he was going to throw those leather shavings in the middle of the table after he cleaned them up. Good job dude
I never know what I’m doing. 😆.
And thanks for the kind words!
👍
What are your tools called and where do you buy them?
Tools? That’s too vague a question. Which tool specifically?
What weight or thickness is the leather u use for this wallet?
5/6 oz
I can't understand how to get that finish on the edges.. wish I could figure it out! What does this wallet sell for
www.masconleather.com/new-index#/w-de-niro-wallet
Use a belt sander to get the edges symmetrical and even, then dye them black and use multiple applications of gum trag followed by burnishing with either wood or canvas cloth till they're polished clean.
Thanks for the advice!
