    You do really beautiful work on your own and also from other people’s patterns. I really liked what you said about learning about leather work by working from someone else’s patterns, and the freedom of working from an existing pattern with known parameters. Like you in this video, I’ve been considering that I might like to learn and grow from working with and modifying someone else’s existing patterns. It would definitely remove some of the fear of messing up a bunch of leather on something I’ve only done semi-successful mock-ups of in felt!!! I love the modifications you made to this bag, and definitely recognize the frustration of working on something and discovering only afterwards that it has been scratched or damaged in the process of making it. Thanks for sharing your process. Really, really beautiful work.

    Tanner. Another wonderful video. Clean, concise and really informative. No one has (up to this point) come up with the perfect method to apply Tokonole to edges without it getting all over the front of the piece. Still working on that. I have seen: Fingers, wire applicator, micro applicator bottle, tiny foam in an alligator clip. Tried most of these. I still get splotches on my front facing pieces. But, thanks for video. Shows the importance of having a really good walking foot sewing machine. Some day. Maybe.

  • @hideteak9098
    @hideteak9098 3 года назад +2

    Thank you SO much for uploading this video. It's great to see a craftsman advocating learning from someone else's pattern. So many who have been making their own patterns tell beginners to make their own, which is rather disheartening sometimes even if it is probably sage advice. To make your own, you have to learn what pitfalls there may to consider in making one. Lots of those things are learned best by using someone else's pattern first, at least that was the case for me. You're the first person I have seen who has (publicly) identified the positives in doing so; the ability to focus on getting the details right while still knowing you will produce something useful even if it's not perfect, and that you won't waste a whole load of expensive leather. Really refreshing, thank you!

  • @tylerjensen8126
    @tylerjensen8126 2 года назад

    I really identify with what you said at the beginning of the video, I also get uncomfortable using other maker's patterns because it feels like I'm being lazy by not putting in the work to be a good designer or I feel guilty like I'm stealing. I have been trying to get better at telling myself that these patterns are available because these makers want to share and also telling myself that most of these makers probably learned using other people's patterns and have incorporated what they have seen and learned into their own designs.
    As I'm trying to expand my business and skills as a leather artisan I'm going to be acquiring bag patterns from makers so I can use what they have learned and applied.
    Thank you for the video

    • @ClaridgeLeather
      @ClaridgeLeather  2 года назад

      That’s awesome- we share that feeling then! I think there’s so much we can learn from each other, and in fact you can see many ideas in this bag borrowed from old military satchels, like the one seam turned in and the other one turned out. I think it’s cool, and a great way to try new things! Have fun, and thanks for watching, Tyler!

    @deanransom2350 2 года назад

    Really nice work, thanks for sharing. Question: Were your small modifications enough to get past copyright if you wanted to sell that commercially? I have tried hard in my work to respect intellectual property, but really how many different ways can you build a belt, wallet or purse. Example, the sheridan style of carving and tooling is beautiful, but how many unique ways can you carve flowers and leaves...they all look the same. Just curious on your thoughts on this matter. Thanks again. You have serious skills man.

    • @ClaridgeLeather
      @ClaridgeLeather  2 года назад

      That’s a good question… out of respect for the original designer, I would not sell this as I made it, for sure. But like you said, there is really nothing new under the sun. I prefer to come up with my own designs, acknowledging that there will be borrowed ideas, giving a nod to the originators, but also trying to be original. With the carving, there are certainly stylistic parameters and I don’t think anyone would fault you for staying within them and making a similar piece to what’s been done before. Just my two cents!

    What a great video! Thanks. I don't think you mentioned the type or weight/size of the thread you used. Any chance you could share?

      Thank you! I appreciate you watching! I used size 207 thread, 23 needle, and the thread is bonded nylon (which I got from Thread Exchange).

    Beautiful job! What cutter do you use to cut the brass rivet?

      It’s the #357 end cutting plier from Channellock. 👍
