My dying area is about the size of the area you’re using here. I have an old metal cookie sheet (my wife throwing out) with a piece of packing paper taped to it. I knocked a bottle of dye over while working. The pan’s lip kept the mess contained and I was able pour most of it back in the bottle. I hope this helps anyone watching.
The “good luck with your project” is motivating and it sticks
This guy is killin me! I love his personality. It makes watching these videos that much more entertaining!
My god you’re sexy, he and I are both good at tanning in our own special ways;)
You're totally right! I "jump on over" and quote Mr. Chuck Dorset all the time! ❤
He sounds like the gunnery sergeant from Full Metal Jacket
Good thing he didn't conclude with 'i hope you dye very soon!' :D love chuck's enthusiasm!
Hi everyone! i'm from the uk so leathercraft is not massive here but i constantly watch these videos and the main reason is you chuck! the energy and happiness you bring to these videos make them a absolute joy to watch and you portray a real love for the craft, i hope there are many more to come and cant wait to see what you are going to show in the future.
Danny.
Thank you, Danny!
Same here buddy. Both from the UK and loving Chuck. Only leather tutorial i keep coming back to!
@@ShotokanWarriorPete can you sue brown leather furniture with teal dye. Would it work and do you know what The actual color will be? Thank you
I've worked with leather sense the 1970s when my Dad was a shoe repairman, but I found this video interesting. I just never dyed much leather. You are a good teacher.
Chuck, you are making my life so much easier!!! Thank you for these videos!! I haven't found any other leather company supplying such great tutorials/how to's. THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
Well done Chuck!, your enthusiasm and passion for leather craft are inspiring!
It took me about 10 seconds to realize that this was going to be a great video! I love the energy, the explanations and the vibe. Thank you!
Doesnt that look fantastic!
Love your "6 ways to,,," series. Shows how versatile leather working is and how much fun you can have experimenting.
Congrats!! Very deserved!!! I am so thankful for your time and teachings Chuck. I love learning and challenging myself and you encourage us to do so. Thank you Sir! 😊
Thanks so much!
I have to thank you. Your videos have gotten me interested in leather working again. Your enthusiasm shows, and is appreciated.
Thank you so much, so glad the videos have been inspiring and helpful!
Chuck, I really have learned a lot from your videos, I happened to be staining a project this morning while watching this! The steps are clear and easy to understand. Thank you for sharing this with other leather enthusiasts!
Thanks so much, Annita! We're so glad they've been helpful!
Hey Chuck, love your “Leather Element” series. I first started working with leather about 1956, while I was in the Boy Scouts. It has been one of my favorite hobbies ever since. I still learn every time I watch you. Great Job.
I want to be in the running for the leather. Thank you so much. Chuck Arkon
Thank you, Chuck!
Chuck you have been one of my biggest inspirations to working with leather. I'm doing projects I never thought I had the abilities to do before. Thanks solely to your informative videos on pattern creation and all of leather element videos. Thank you so much for giving me the guidance and information I needed to take my projects to the next level.
Thank you so much, Mark - that means more than I can say!
This means I need to pull my airbrush out of storage!!! Thanks for all your hard work and tips!!
Thank you for the video's. A great resource for any level of leather crafter. Keep up the good work.
You are soooooooo good! I am getting into leabthercrafting because of you! Your energy and passion is contagious. I am learning like crazy because of you. THANK YOU!!!
Great video as always. Love your clear and information-packed delivery.
I love how cheerful and excited yiu always seem to be. I also really enjoy your videos. Recently ordered a grade c double shoulder that you had on sale, looking forward to using it. Thinking about doing your bracers project with it. This was really helpful as I've not tried dying yet. If you haven't done a leather element on resists yet, it'd be really helpful.
Chuck’s enthusiasm is contagious. I’m new and I appreciate how he caters to the beginner like me.
Thank you so much from an absolute beginner. I am doing leather jewelry (cuffs, embroidered bracelets, earrings) and am learning as I go. It is a wonderful pleasure to see you do these great videos, plus you are giving me so many ideas. And as always, a growing shopping list I need to practice techniques as my craft inventory grows.
Thank you, Linda! So glad you are enjoying leather work!
Chuck, you continue to amaze me. Keep the vids coming.
Long time subscriber and first time commenting ... Just want to send a sincere "Thank You" for the Leather Element; your endless assistance and your contagious enthusiasm. I believe I can safely speak for many of us when I say that these videos are more helpful and encouraging than you realize. Please keep them coming!
Thank you so much, Michael! That means a lot!
Wow, you took me back to when I was a little boy in the early 90s listening to fm radio call-in talkshows. "Long time listener, first time caller.."
I love all your videos. I learn so much even the things I am not really ready to even try to do yet. I save all your videos so I am able to watch once.. then again whenever I want to watch them again.. thank you.
Love seeing you start out thanking viewers for the fact that you broke 100,000 and then looking down and seeing that you're now growing well beyond that.
Great guide, great looking video, thanks for the advice and I wish you all future success. 👍😁👍
Congratulations on hitting 100,000. Chuck you always do great videos. Always easy to follow and fun to watch.
Thank you, Daniel!
Chuck is great!!! I love his enthusiasm! I've learned a lot watching his videos. Thank you
This guy makes me feel awesome everytime I watch one of these videos. I don’t know how he does it lol.
I started watching these videos because I wanted to get into leatherwork, and I’ve finally bought me a veg tan side to get me started. Thanks for the help Chuck!
That is awesome!
Hey Chuck, thanks for teaching the different dye techniques. I found it VERY helpful for the type of work I do. (Mostly small Harley Davidson dash pieces). I am looking for a more consistent application and I am going to try the dip dye technique. VERY INFORMATIVE, Keep them coming!!!!
All of your videos are very entertaining and very inspirational! Your positive and encouraging attitude has definitely pushed me to take on this hobby!
Thank you so much!
You asked for feedback: You make leathercraft sound doable, and that gave me enough self-confidence to give it a go!
That's awesome to hear - thank you! We hope you enjoy it!
Thanks so much for this video. I’m a long haul trucker so my ‘shop’ is literally in the cab of my truck. I always seem to get a splotchy finish with my dye but I tried dip dyeing with the Fiebings pro and it’s perfect. Fast, no big mess and consistent. I just got an order for a dozen pouches and this process was so fun I made another 6 just for kicks and giggles! Thanks for teaching this old dog a new trick.
That's great to hear, Christopher! Thanks so much!
Congratulations!
Thank you for your amazing explanations and encouragement!
Love listening to your videos even if I have seen them before - I still continue to learn from them with the dense amount of information.
Thank you so much, Derek!
You're a rare breed sir. Congratulations on the success and thanks for the effort. Service is the highest order.
Chuck’s videos are clear and easy to understand. I’ve put some of his tips into practice. You guys at Weaver are much appreciated.
Have a nice weekend

Love the air brush technique! I have never use this, but will be looking for an air brush in the future. I don't mind dye on my hands and fingers, it just shows the ability to create something by hand.

Can you give some pointers on dyeing suede/roughout? I’m dyeing a saddle, and it has a suede seat.

Thanks in advance!

Another great video! Thank you for this very informative series chuck, you always have great, well presented content! I have a request for an upcoming video. Top coats. I'd love to see a video on applying them and comparing their strengths and weaknesses (especially their resistance to water/sweat and flexibility). Not much info out there on this and it would be great to have as a reference! Thanks again!

Peace n Love People
I've probably watched a thousand leather working videos on youtube but I always come back to Weaver leather and Chuck's videos when I want to do things the right way. Keep up the great videos and congrats on your 100,000 subscribers. A good idea, in my opinion, for a video would be how to fold leather, skiving the thickness to get it to fold right etc..Just a thought thanks.
Thank you, Michael! We will see about adding this to our list of videos- we appreciate the suggestion!
@@WeaverLeatherSupply Your Welcome, have a great weekend!
Hey Chuck! Yes your videos are very helpful! I used your knife sheath video set to make my first sheath, and made 50 bucks, and gained a satisfied customer! It was the first leather piece I sold!
That's awesome! Thanks so much for watching!
Man. If that ain't the best explanation I've ever seen. 👌
Yo! He is absolutely incredible ☺️
Love the videos! These are the reason I am getting into leather working. I teach shop and am going to integrate it into my curriculum whenever I get half good enough.
Thank you, Adam!
I live in Karachi Pakistan I like your comments send 4 month ago
This is great. So useful. I will try on a scrap the wooden block method, it seems quite interesting for a project i am doing :).
Helpful video! I'd love to see a video demonstrating the use of dyes to change the color of leather that's already been dyed. This could a discussion of the drawbacks and problems with doing this as well as how to make a color change successful. What preparation must be done to the leather beforehand? What happens when changing from a dark color like black to a color like green or red?
