Eric - I've been meaning to mention that since you decided to start narrating your videos, they've gone from "very useful" to "indispensable". Having you talk us through the little details and difficulties, has been truly priceless. Myriad thanks!
Coming back to this video over 3 years later and I'm reminded again of how awesome your channel is and how important it has been on my leather journey the past 4 years. Thank you again for all the techniques you show to your audience for free!
I love how you are honest about progressions. "For your first couple tries don't worry about x" "practice this a few times before you worry about curves"
This is the 1st video I see of yours in over a year and I LOVE the fact that you talk it with us now. I plan to start making bags and wallets as a hobby and gifts for my family and have definitely looked at your videos too learn. Thank you.
Thank you for providing a tutorial that even I as beginner will now practice piping. You are a good teacher and you have amazing control with your knife.
I'm very new to leathercraft and piping seemed very intimidating. But this looks really fun and the end product is gorgeous. I can't wait to give it a go!
You're an excellent instructor! I refer to your videos quite frequently and often try to emulate your work. Oh, and your videographer is spot on, you're a great team.
I'm not involved in leathercrafting myself, but I can say that the skills you are teaching others are quite valuable if put to use. If the economy keeps going the way it is we may have to start relearning practical skills and living in reality, heaven forfend.
Thank you for a great tutorial. I've done piping one vinyl bags on the machine but never in leather by hand so this was really helpful to know what I need to do differently. I love that you burnished on the inside.
You have a brilliant way of explaining everything. Thank you. I've been wanting to try piping and nowi am confident enough to give it a try. Thanks again
You must have been looking at my RUclips search history. I literally was searching for how to do this on your channel and elsewhere an hour before you posted this….
This is exactly the video i was hoping to find, excelent video, love the narration, you are a great teacher. PS. You sound a little like Brent Spiner from star trek which is cool, pretty sure he narrates audio books.
That looks so good. I started making things with leather thanks to you and Little King Goods. I just started cutting out the pieces to make my first messenger bag and I'm fucking terrified! I thought this would make a much better edge than I originally planned. You make this look so easy! Lol I think when I get home from work I'm gonna try this and see if I can figure this out on scrap and work my way up.
I like your tutorial, comprehensible instruction with great camera movements and angles of close-up shots. One question for you, why don't you grade the seam allowances?
Quick question, if you see this. Would it not be a little bit easier to make the area behind your stitch line, essentially the glue area, a bit longer so that the gluing down and stitching is easier? And then trim everything up to make them even and neater?
Have you considered making a contact adhesive review video, based on what's available on Amazon? I've been using Aleene's leather and suede glue, but am looking for an accessible Contact adhesive.
Your videos are really helpful and fun! You seem to always use natural veg tan. I love it as well, I just every now and then will get a project close to done and will get a mystery dark grey/black smudge on the leather that I'm really not sure what it is? I try to be very clean especially with NVT leather. Any ideas what it may be in your experience and if so is it somehow removable. Sorry it's off subject from video but I figure if anybody has experienced this you may have. Thanks
Thank you so much for this video! How would this be different if I plan to put piped edges on both sides? Would I need to work completely inside out until the other side is completed as well?
So.. You'd always GLUE the piping before sewing? I'm sewing piping onto the top of a car seat back (without gluing first) and it's drifting all over the place ! Thanks.. What type of glue are you using?
Hi! Can this be stitched with a walking foot? Is there a small enough pressure foot to get into that edge right next to the piping?? I've got a tech-sew coming soon and eager to experiment...
OLD LEATHER SMITH here, Excellent Job 4 both of you, Suggestion, cut about 1/8 or less off the end of your glue brush and it will be easier 2 spread the glue in tight spaces, GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃
I don't know with the camera cut in the middle, but it sure did look like you skived that entire first edge in one piece... the edge consistency was remarkably satisfying.
What kind of glue are you using here? I have issues with glue failing when I'm pulling out stitching chisels, especially with thicker leather (and I already polished my chisels). Your glue seems to hold way better.

I can only agree with this.
Coming back to this video over 3 years later and I'm reminded again of how awesome your channel is and how important it has been on my leather journey the past 4 years. Thank you again for all the techniques you show to your audience for free!
Excellent tutorial. You do a great job of going slow enough that a total beginner can follow along and you explain everything nicely. Thank you.
Can we stop for a second and appreciate his skill with the skiving knife? 😲
I’m a novice into leather working and I find your videos and explanations extremely helpful. Thank you.
I love how you are honest about progressions. "For your first couple tries don't worry about x" "practice this a few times before you worry about curves"

Been working leather for a few years, great value in watching how others do things. Excellent master class!
Eric, your voice is just soothing. I like the narration and it gives me confidence
As everyone else appears to have written too. Excellent tutorial! Good pace, simple and clear explanations. I learned so much. Thank you again.
I'm very new to leathercraft and piping seemed very intimidating. But this looks really fun and the end product is gorgeous. I can't wait to give it a go!
Thank you so much! I want to make a clutch for my sister and this came at just the right time. Your tutorials are amazing

This is quite the master class. Thank you!

Excellent tutorial! Can't wait to see the finished product!
Fantastic session, wonderful technique to learn for making totes, and purses. Nice detail for renaissance festival pouches.
love your tutorials! Seems like a pre-bend for the gusset would make things a lot easier, both to glue and to stick down. Has anyone tried this?
Loved the tutorial 😍😍😍😍
Im a biggener, amateur, love leather and stitching....
Thank you it is so helpful!
Thanks man! I’ve been wanting to start making small bags but that was the part I thought wouldn’t be fun, that helps A LOT✌️
Thank you thank you!!! Best tutorial on piping to date 🙏 🥳
Great video. I thoroughly love watching.
Excellent video as always, I really got a lot from this one, thank you for the effort you go to, I've learnt so much from watching your work 😎👍🏻
You must have been looking at my RUclips search history. I literally was searching for how to do this on your channel and elsewhere an hour before you posted this….
Great teacher
What you could make from this part (12:00)… I’m thinking a lid for a box or a coin wallet. Great video, thanks!
Thanks for making this1 Been excited for it since the Insta post!
This is exactly the video i was hoping to find, excelent video, love the narration, you are a great teacher. PS. You sound a little like Brent Spiner from star trek which is cool, pretty sure he narrates audio books.
I was looking forward to seen you do the punches at the corners 🥲
The “push” advice is what I needed to hear. Thanks
Nice, a very handy technique to be apply on my next projects.
Thank you! A good skill to learn.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. You're amazing 👏 👍

Great job, I like it. Thanks.
Для быстрого и ровного нанесения клея можно использовать тонкий малярный скотч).
Hey Eric great vid brother. I figure you would appreciate my glass fiber optic light piping. We integrate into leather seating to light up your welt
Thanks for a great tutorial!
Nice tutorial.
super tutorial! thanks!
Awesome !
what sort of glue are you using?
Thanks...great video.
Very good! Thank you.
Quick question, if you see this. Would it not be a little bit easier to make the area behind your stitch line, essentially the glue area, a bit longer so that the gluing down and stitching is easier? And then trim everything up to make them even and neater?
What size leather cord do you use for piping
I don't know if doing straight shots and leather work go together well? =)
thank you so much
Man, you’re such a goddamn legend. Thank you so much for getting me into the craft, and helping me refine my skills in it.
Have you considered making a contact adhesive review video, based on what's available on Amazon? I've been using Aleene's leather and suede glue, but am looking for an accessible Contact adhesive.
Your videos are really helpful and fun! You seem to always use natural veg tan. I love it as well, I just every now and then will get a project close to done and will get a mystery dark grey/black smudge on the leather that I'm really not sure what it is?

Sorry it's off subject from video but I figure if anybody has experienced this you may have. Thanks
Just wanted to ask, so there are no issues wit the the glue and your machine, I am nervous about the glue and my needles
Great tutorial. Thank you Eric. Love your videos.! I’ve learned so much from you.!
Good to learnrd
Thank you ;-)
Is it advisable to soak the piping in water so that it becomes flexible and easy to mold?
Thank you so much for this video! How would this be different if I plan to put piped edges on both sides? Would I need to work completely inside out until the other side is completed as well?
So.. You'd always GLUE the piping before sewing? I'm sewing piping onto the top of a car seat back (without gluing first) and it's drifting all over the place ! Thanks.. What type of glue are you using?
What glue are you using?!
Hi! Can this be stitched with a walking foot? Is there a small enough pressure foot to get into that edge right next to the piping?? I've got a tech-sew coming soon and eager to experiment...
my edges are getting folds in them as i bend. do you think that could be low quality leather(it's not bad but not the best), or just lack of practice?
Could ypu use anything as your core inside the piping? Could I use a piece of metal rod folded into a shape I want?
What sort of glue do you use? It seems so sticky instantly. My contact cement takes for ever to get tacky to the point it could hold itself down.
great video! where do you buy your leather cording? it's not on your tools+materials list and it really should be for this video!
Please make a video on how to make leather shoes.
Nice video! The finished product looks like the tip of a finger
Спасибо. Всё показано
OLD LEATHER SMITH here, Excellent Job 4 both of you, Suggestion, cut about 1/8 or less off the end of your glue brush and it will be easier 2 spread the glue in tight spaces, GOD'S BLESSINGS ✝️⚾🙃

Muy buen trabajo, ante nada, peeero hablas demasiado, se explicaría mejor si no hablaras nada, así aburres.
I’ve seen 100’s of makers skiving leather and never seen it done so cleanly before and so effortlessly 😎
I don't know with the camera cut in the middle, but it sure did look like you skived that entire first edge in one piece... the edge consistency was remarkably satisfying.
Supper❤
Respect you...,... very very good 👍 job... helpfulness
This was by far one of the best leather making tutorials. Thank you!🙏🏾 ❤
What kind of glue are you using here?
I have issues with glue failing when I'm pulling out stitching chisels, especially with thicker leather (and I already polished my chisels). Your glue seems to hold way better.
I am so very impressed of your skills.
