    Man it's hard to narrow it down to only 10! Let me know if you think there are any tools you think I should've added to the list

      Stock & Barrel Co a heavier maul or mallet is also invaluable for hardware setting (snaps, rivets, etc)

    • @IrisHijne
      @IrisHijne Před 5 lety +23

      A steel (metal) ruler! I just bought one from a local hardware store and it's just a great cutting guide and measurement tool. An upgrade from that would be a carpenter's square (or whatever you call them in English).

      PS. This is the first time I'm commenting on one of your video's. I've been watching for a while now, although mostly watching older video's. I have to say I really like your video's, even though I'm more into tooling, I still really enjoy watching. You're really good at vlogging and editing which makes watching so much more fun but I really appreciate how you show how you can make a business in leathercraft. I myself got interested in leathercraft a few years ago already, but have been very slow with it. I'm still a student and I lack the time and mostly the budget. Because even though beginner tools are not the most expensive ones, you really soon want more and the leather is expensive of course. Aside from that, I'm from The Netherlands where you can't just walk into a leathercraft store, unfortunately. Many things must be ordered from abroad. I hope to finish my thesis and education soon and after that, I want to spend more time getting proficient in leathercraft. Whether it will remain a hobby besides another job or become more of a job for me too (maybe even including vlogging, love the makervloggery initiative!), I don't know yet, but you've definitely gotten me interested in the latter!

    Opened this leather kit i just got in the mail, in front of my pc. I say to myself, "ok let's start lookin around on youtube and see what all of this stuff is" . Go through about 10 vids without full explanation of what the purpose of everything is and it's actual applications, and not just what you use it for. Next video I click is yours. 2 mins in and I subscribed. This is EXACTLY the kind of video you hope to find when you're picking up a hobby and feel intimidated. Thank you for this.

    So here I am, in Denmark, wanting to make shamanic rattles and trying to figure out what basic leather tools I need, and I am just hit by the joy of creativity that bursts from this video some dude across the Atlantic made. If there is a thing youtube is really good for, it's sharing that common human enjoyment associated with *mAkInG StuFF*! Man it gets the creative juices flowing.
    Also, thank you for the advice, super useful :)

  • @davecarpetcare
    @davecarpetcare Před 5 lety +4

    Thank you, thank you, thank you. You are so on the money with the "CLEANNESS" (is there such a word?) of your videos. No shaky, hand held camera, no in and out of focusing, no extracurricular animals wandering through, no sounds of diesel air horns interrupting the monologue, no wife or girlfriend (or both :) ) interrupting in mid stream, no uhs and ahs and well, er, etc., etc. In short, no crap. Short and sweet, stays focused and right on point, packing plenty of good info into a short space. What a win-win in that you are concise and clean in the production and you don't waste your viewers' time to boot. As others have commented: full of energy, a big smile and a good teach.
    Looking forward to watching all your videos and getting started in leatherworking. Thank you for an excellent video and wishing you continued success. You deserve it.
