Everyday Leather Challenge - How Often Do We Really Use Leather?
Leather works because it's versatile, durable, and sustainable. We constantly hear that "vegan leather" is the future, but what could be more responsible than using the by-product of the meat industry to make a material that supports every part of our day? Check out more info @isitleather to make sure you surround yourself with the most sustainable choice: real leather.

Pendleton Whisky Presents | The Hands That Build the West, The Saddlemaker featuring Ben Geisler

Saddle maker Ben Geisler knows tradition is bigger than something preserved by the past: it’s something the present demands. As much as he strives to honor the heritage of Western craftsmanship, he knows the real test is how his saddles stand up to a hard day’s work. Stitching, punching, and cutting till his hands ache, late hours perfecting his time-tested technique-it’s all worth it to know h...

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌 A true artisan.
how much?
Every once in a while you see someone else doing leather work and you realize how far away you are from being a skilled craftsman.
Very excellent
Just beautiful to watch you create something from just a plain piece of leather. You are a true Master Craftman. Awesome workshop too.
If I may ask, what is in the tin at 10:24?
A true craftsmen
Great video and even a better looking belt.
Tols name
A work of art.
pasta vibes
Nesesito que me vendaspiel para aser cintos piel gtuesa
Boring. I couldn’t watch it all.
Perfect very nice❤❤
Good night! that pattern is wonderful
It was pleasure watching this clip... So much of dedication... Great craftmanship... Lot of respects to his hardship and skills... 🙏♥️
I wish I could see those after drying. I also used Sheps Pure Neats Oil and the color is just not what I'm after. Looking for that golden tan/English Tan? NOT russet. Thank you
You do really nice work. I envy your skills.
Liked and Subscribed. Well done.
I really wish I could learn this in person
wow, beautiful
Beautiful workmanship. You have produced a belt anyone would be proud to own. Bravo 👏
I truly love that there is no music. I loved listening to the natural sounds.
I'd rather let the work do the talking. Usually, anyway.
Very nice haus. You have a very steady hand. Watching you cut was fun. Have you used many different colored threads? If so, was it by request? My daughter in law is getting a belt from me for Christmas. I know she likes blue, and was thinking of using blue thread. I know women like to match as best they can. Obviously, this may hinder her clothing options, just wondering from your experience please. Thank you. May I also inquire what type leather and Oz do you prefer to use as a backing? Thank you again.
I've done work with contrasting thread. I've found that unless you use a over-long stitch length and over-large thread, the color tends to get lost in the workpiece. As backing goes, I use 4oz latigo, but it's really up to personal preference.
@BMGeisler ok, ty. Very helpful. Length of thread, sounds like it would almost subtract then. What would be an over size thread? (I'm the "5" year old asking why... lol.) How long would be a good length? Thank you.
@@robertk-qn6mg I typically sew belts at 6-8 stitches per inch with 207 thread. If I wanted a big contrast I'd go down to 4-5 stitches an inch and bump the thread up to 346. I'd also use a shallower than normal stitch groove.
@@BMGeisler thank you very much. Look forward to more of your vids.
It would be nice to explain each operation.
Very perfect 👍👍👍👍
Did you make saddles for Henson and Daniel Winn?
I did. I've built three saddles for them.
@@BMGeisler They're beautiful saddles. I would love to own one of your saddles someday.
Nice.
Thousands of dollars worth of gear and equipment,, who has that normally
I'm a full time professional saddlemaker so me, I guess?
@BMGeisler,,, I apologise, full time saddle maker is an exacting and admirable craft, hence the equipment, thank you for clarifying that to me,, T.K
What kind of wing divider is that?
It's an EZ border tool from Alden Leather Supply.
This brings back so many memories of the time I tooled belts, handbags, Ranger belts and bullet holders. I drooled over your collection of tooling taps. I had to do the basket weave by hand! And learning the shaders and beaders drove me nuts! So tedious. I can still smell the hide glue. My mentor made me learn to sharpen the cutters before even touching a length of hide. And practice with the scrive knife... Well I won't go there. "Thinner, girl, thinner! And taper that right! I can remember all the blisters I got when I was burnishing the finished edges with a scrap of suede. I grinned when I saw you hand stitching with those double needles. Thank you for some great memories. I grinned through the whole video.☺
It seems that we have a lot of similar memories. Some things change, some things stay the same.
Can you make a short instructional video on how to use one?
Parabéns
Leather sling bag, leather backpack, leather wallet, leather belt, leather bracelet, leather Apple Watch strap, leather hat, leather boots. I guess I like leather 🤷♂️
talk too much and show little of what you are doing. Tilt the camera to a different angle
At least you didn't over-pay.
What leather thickness in mm?
5.2-6.0mm
I need the names of leather chamicals
Would you please post a knife sharpening video? I need my round knife to be that sharp
I've posted one, it's on my channel.
@@BMGeisler thanks
I'm actually watching it right now on my TV
Videos like this are why I watch RUclips
Comments like this are why I make videos.
I do leatherwork and I get my round knife has to be sharp but bloody hell
❤❤❤
❤️
*This is awesome! I can't quite tell, but are you doing this on leather soles for shoes or what is it for? Beautiful work!*
Where did you get that border stamp? I like it!
It's a Barry King No.3 crescent.
@@BMGeisler thank you!
Great job ❤
Fantastic video, I love basket weave patterns! I am curious though, how would you typically finish a belt like this?
Yeah,just subscribed bought a Jack jk-5942C-1 want to learn super novice
i want this job
🇺🇸💪🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️
Thanks Ben, I met you in Sheridan this past May, as you were critiquing the geometric stamped saddle that took 1st place. The saddle I ride is a 50-year-old Juan Lara hand-made saddle from Santa Ynez Valley California. Now that I'm nearing 67 years of age, my knees take a beating when I ride multiple days in a row. Thanks for your tips, I've only ever done your process to one other client's saddle in the recent past. So, I'll give it a go on my own saddle. Thanks Partner.
It's good to see you again. I'm glad you were able to get some use out of it.
