As a newcomer to leatherwork I find this mans helpful advice invaluable and without people such as Chuck to advise us we are incompetent at this art,so please Chuck ,please keep teaching us the correct procedures .
Love these videos, but you guys need to invest in that second camera for the closeup shots.
This, this, this, this!!!
I agree.
💯
and talk a little slower
I pressed play and I looked away to grab a snack while still listening... and for a moment I wasn't sure if I was watching Weaver Leathercraft or America's Most Wanted with John Walsh lol. Great content, thank you for the wisdom!
First time I burnished an edge I over pressed and rolled the edge a bit. Luckily it was for a 1,1/4 inch tooled strap bracelet and the effect of a rolled edge beside a deep groove line actually added a really nice 3d bordering effect around the tooling. Sometime mistakes are lessons, sometimes they're a great addition!
The embodiment of what all RUclips videos should be: clear, concise, informative, no BS, straight to it and wow crammed full of 100% immediately useful and relevant information. Outstanding presentation! I won't show you any of my projects over the decades, but I've made hat bands and belts and wallets and holsters and knife sheaths and purses...all functional but they won't win any blue ribbons. Can't wait to see what other videos you have!
I cant stop watching this
I learned leather-crafting from my mother and have been doing it for years. Weaver makes excellent tools, but more than that, Chuck your videos are always such a pleasure to watch. Thanks for all you do.
This guy eats leather and drinks espresso, and I love it. Good video!
Great video! Can't wait to get started
You gotta love this guy! ❤️🙋🏼♀️ thank you!

For a newbie this is gold. Thanks.
Great information/ refresher! Thanks Chuck keep on doing these please
Your video's have helped me out so much! thank you for making them :)
Definitely worth watching.
Your videos will help me take my past meager workmanship to new levels.
Thanks for sharing, Chuck
Thank you. Very informative. I appreciate no fluff.
Thanks for the great tips, Chuck. I'd like to begin leather crafting, and I'm experienced enough to learn from the mistakes of others when I take on new tasks or hobbies.
I like this guys energy.
Thank you !! Wonderful tips! 🙂🌸❤️
Great tips! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you for making this video, over all the years in worked on leather, I have committed every sin you pointed out, lol! Looking forward to your next video.
Very helpful! Thank you so much!
Every time I enjoy watching your tutorial videos. Thank you. Very clean , fast & useful. This is a great opportunity to know you man. God Bless 🙏👍
I love your videos Chuck. Just spent more than I should of at your shop & eagerly waiting for it to arrive here in Australia. 👍
Love these kinds of videos. I was a moderately skilled leather worker 20 years ago, and I'm returning to it now.... much of it is like riding a bike, but there's just as much (or more) of these basic skills which are totally lost on me.
I never did figure out edge slicking, even way back when.... and it's still a little bit of magic for me now, so I'm looking forward to trying out your tips from this video.
This is very helpful! Touched on several mistakes ive been making, time to go make something with my new knowledge!
Thanks for those tricks, Chuck. Truth be told, I've done those mistakes many times.
Quick,concise,informative👍👍
Wow that was the most concise video I've seen in a while and I learned a lot
I wish I'd seen this before my first project.
Again, a great informative video Chuck, I should have watched this first, I now recognise a few of my mistakes.
Good stuff as always, thanks Chuck! Man, I wish I’d known even half of what I’ve learned from The Leather Element back when I was first starting out.
Kevin Noll exactly, and the previous guy at my local national chain store (I don’t want to mention names, but it’s initials are “Tandy Leather”😂) would just sell me what I needed in order to do what I wanted to accomplish, but refused to tell me how to use it. As far as I could figure, he wanted me to attend their weekend “classes” so I’d have to buy more materials, just to learn a technique. That would have taken me decades, and I’m no spring chicken. RUclips in general, and Chuck with these Leather Element videos in particular have helped speed up my learning curve immeasurably.
These were very helpful! Thank you!
Useful video. Thanks!
Thanks for the helpful tips! This'll help a lot as I'm endeavoring in my leather work.
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for all Notes and warnings

Thank you, Grant and hello from the US! We're so glad the videos have been helpful!
Awesome bit of practical advice from a knowledgeable teacher; great as always! Thanks Chuck!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I hear you Chuck. I sure get into the thorn bushes when I get in a hurry. Patience is a virtue!
fantastic roundup, thanks. i've had to learn a lot of these the hard way - wish i'd had this to watch first.
Thank you, I’ve looked at a lot of videos on RUclips and your videos are some of the best, you do a great job explaining.
Thank so much!
Done all of these but the beveled into the hand, hopefully this keeps me from doing it. Thanks for the tips and the video!
Great tips! Thanks for another excellent video.
Wonderful tips! Especially the second one, I found that out the hard way in my most recent project! Thanks you, it's a really valuable video.
I Love your Channel and especially your subscribers!
👉I would like to
Sincerely Thank You All
who helped me out with all of your wonderful suggestions!👍👍👍
Thanks for these great tips!
Thanks Chuck 👍
I’d like to hang out and have a beer with this dude. Always great info.
Thank you so much I really appreciate you putting out this wonderful video, I’m just getting started in leather work to make nice sheaths for my knives and this helped a lot !
You are so welcome, glad it was helpful!
I did leather carving as a teen and at 60 I am getting back into leather working due to your videos. I was addicted to watching you create that beautiful holster and now am obsessed with the craft. Weaver didn't have several of the tools I wanted (67-6970, 67-6976, 67-6978, 67-6982); therefore I am on the Email notify list. I intend to eventually acquire all the tools needed for real leathercraft (to make a holster, boots and one day a saddle). Thank you very much for your well done, informative videos.
Great tips
Thanks for the info, I really like your videos Chuck, a trick I picked up with removing stubborn screws is with a side cutter, just replace the screw afterwards
Great tips, thank you!!
thank you for this and your other vids!
Good stuff man,.... Thanks for improving my game Chuck!!
Jeff from Jersey here! Thank you it did help.
Great tips! I'm guilty of too many of those.
Saw the title and knew I had to watch. Great video. The production and information were both top notch. Little things like remarking that the camera would not pick up a detail then describing it to us were very professional. These were all things I did not know. Thanks.
Thanks so much!
Really impressed with the presentation, videography, editing and explanations, I got what you meant straight away and I don't do leather work.
Thank you
Good work
Thanks again.
Awesome work, thanks for the info! 😃👍🏻👊🏻
You have made some great tutorials 👌
Thanks for Knowledge!
Tnx for advices...I'm new in this gorgeous world of leather :)
Hello Chuck. I have jumped my box cutter slightly and taken a small sliver off the side of my straight edge. Now I use a piece of quarter inch square steel bar as my straight edge. Works great.
Thanks Chuck!

I’m just starting out, this is very helpful
Thanks for sharing!
Enjoyed the video, did similar mistake with the beveled edge too wet, then slicked, and ended up mushrooming the edges. Yep, have to let them dry a bit. Thanks Chuck
I like the intro
These were some great tips. I see what I was doing wrong all this time and yes I used a few bandaids. Thanks so much for all the tips. I definitely like your style of teaching. Keep it up.
Thank you so much, so glad the videos are helpful!
This was a great video...huge help. Done most of these mistakes😉
