This is a Montana Veg Tan side from Tandy in the brown color: tandyleather.com/products/montana-sides?variant=31977191243907

No problem! The sites are tough to navigate for sure. Since you are a beginner, let me know if I could put something out there that you need but can’t find. You can let me know on here or email at whitetailleathercraft@gmail.com. Good luck on your next project!

I typically let it sit for 5 minutes and it works very well!

@@WhitetailLeathercraftThanks mate!

There he is! Really appreciate the advice on what’s missing out there, it’s been a helpful perspective for what I want to do

You’re welcome, I’m glad the information was useful!

A great piece of advice for all of us!

Thank you! Yep, simple pattern and for that piece of leather it would be only $5-10 from a high quality, veg tan Italian leather hide.

That’s a great point! I would prefer to keep my thumbs 😅

The point they’re making is that sometimes your hand can slip. Leather is really thick so you might apply the wrong force and slide it wrong

it can run off

Thanks y’all! Cutting in a straight line is preferred haha. It’s easier said then done when just starting out and my commenters are correct the blade can run off due to thick leather or any number of reasons. The idea is to protect the pattern and hopefully save someone from potential discouragement as they work on their first few products/develop their skills 👍

@@WhitetailLeathercraft I would think people who indulge in the arts of craftsmanship come with common sense included but my guess is that it’s not so common anymore? 😅

Thank you! Guess I should of clarified but full name isn’t necessary, all good 😅

Congratulations @CGoody564, you have won! Send an email to whitetailleathercraft@gmail.com and claim the prize.

@@WhitetailLeathercraft will do so shortly. Inb4 I get scammed for my identity somehow 😅

​​@@WhitetailLeathercraft I see I didn't have much competition in the comments... Rest assured, I'll make sure people see this piece and know who it's made by. I have a few buddies who should be able to help spread the word

😂 Yes, I understand the need to protect your info and don’t want to compromise it on my account. Hopefully the separate email accomplishes that and if you need anything before sending this along let me know. Indeed you were the only one and you deserve it for having done so! I appreciate the support and honestly enjoy giving these things out to great people such as yourself for nominating your dad. I’ll be giving you a custom handmade belt as well to go along with it. Thank you also for spreading the word!

I’m glad you enjoy it and agree it is satisfying when doing it during projects! I’ll have to make sure I get better shots of it in the next videos

Thank you for the compliment on the bag and sharing your story!

Congratulations @goldmanjax! You are the winner of the giveaway for this tote bag. Please reach out via email: whitetailleathercraft@gmail.com to discuss next steps. Thank you!

Thank you for sharing! The pattern is an acrylic template I got from Little King Goods which you can buy from their site. If you are getting started and don’t want to spend money for a pattern, I have followed this video from Claridge Leather where he walks through creating your own and it was super easy to follow. ruclips.net/video/HtlqKS_-dxc/видео.htmlsi=D_1mFeimFKJ1u_SO Hope this helps!

Thank you!!

Thank you! Appreciate the kind words!

Thank you! At the time, I thought it may interfere with the stitching of the handles but realize it wouldn’t matter now so definitely agree!
