Making a Tubular Leather Handle // TUTORIAL
Tubular/rolled leather handles are a really nice detail to add to any leather bag, trunk, or pouch project. In this leathercraft tutorial we walk you step-by-step through making a simple rolled leather handle. There are many ways to do this, from super simple to very, very fancy like the big designer brands (think Lois Vuitton, etc). This tutorial strikes a nice balance between luxury and utility, featuring leather lined interior sides but a wonderful wax burnished finish.
I can't count the times I have watched this video and used it to make handles. Step by step is awesome and fantastic to get all my tooks out and ready to go! Thank you! I love your work.
Knowing how to build a project and being able to do it well is one thing, but being able to convey to others, in a clear and simple yet precise step by step manner is quite another thing. I speak from personal experience after taking almost 3 years of teaching at the post graduate level to learn how to talk to a class, who may have had little or no experience in my trade, the very essentials steps of doing the most basic type of procedure and include all of the movements and micro-steps needed to make that procedure work!!
Whether you realize it or not, you possess a valuable skill that most of the craftsmen on the YT channels would love to have for their own! I will guarantee you that the only viewers who will find your videos boring will be those who either have a passing interest in leather work or they want to find that "magic bullet" which will take a pure novice up to the level of "craftsman" while skipping all of the most vital parts of learning any hands on skills, ........ PRACTICE and EXPERIENCE!!
There is a saying that goes something like, "You will never know until you try, you will only get better with practice, and the true craftsman will never stop learning".
[That is a thought of mine which I had hanging, as a sign, in my classroom for all to see and maybe a few to believe].
Very well said. He can explain fairly complex procedures in a way that makes you comfortable with trying it yourself.
Thank you for unselfishly sharing your knowledge with us like this. I have learned so much from your channel. I am only about 6 months into this hobby and really love it! You guys do a great job with these videos, keep up the awesome work!! 🙏❤
Sometimes, bad knowledge is worst then no knowledge at all. This channel should stick to the cowboy style stuff until they have a better grasp of fine leather working before trying to teach people.
Just stitched a 52" strap by hand so it was detachable from the purse. Talk about crossed eyes! Just over 450 stitches.
Nice job. I do the same technique when I make my handles.
On the farm we used horse shoes.. they make sturdy handles , wrapped in leather they are better.
I like to watch..
I came across the same Weaver #0 edge beveller here in Norway. A surprising find. Had to buy it because of these videos. It cost me $90 but man is it nice compared to the others I have. Apart from that particular luxury I love the no fancy nonsense approach of your videos! A tool handle for burnishing. Cutting corners with an empty thread spool as a template. Perfect tools for the job when you think about it.
You have a really great way of explaining what you are doing and how to do it. I also really appreciate you using all hand tools, I personally only have hand tools so it is good to see something in a way that I can actually do it. Thanks!
Brilliant! Thank you so much!😊
This is so awesome of you to do these videos amazing you make it look so simple and love how you explain how to make handbags you are a wonderful teacher and must be a awesome person to share your knowledge and information thank you!
I really was looking for a handbags I really wanted never can find or afford anything but with your help I really could make them wow been praying for someone I could sew to sell for income so wouldn’t be difficult having serious health issues something like Parkinson’s family and my husband has polio he’s a painter and construction but getting more difficult now that he and I are 55 but I think we could possibly make handbags together thank you so extremely excited
Great tutorial, enjoyed the tip in adding the extra leather on the inside and detailed explanation.
You are the Bob Ross of Leathercraft! Amazing, happy and, charming. The way you make it very simple(when it is not at all) is fantastic. Thank you very much. Do you have any tutorial teaching how to make the part that is in the bag itself attached to the handle. I am making bags from cushions covers and I am not sure where sew the handles to. Than you again you are very talented.
Instructions were clear and concise. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience :)
Appreciate the sharing of info and techniques!
Those are beautiful and show the craftsmanship put into them.
This is what I was looking for. Will be perfect with D rings for the top of my heavyweight canvas backpack. Thanks!
I’ve also noticed for example on the Hermes Birkin bag that there is a line of stitching straight up the tab from the leaf point about midway up the tab. While they use a liner, the stitching up the skived end of the leather cord locks it in place. That stitching will certainly prevent the core from migrating down the handle. Great video.
6'4" ! It's nice knowing there's other tall people out there! (I'm 6'3")
Really enjoyed this tutorial, rolled handle are something I've wanted to try for a while but haven't found a project for them yet, looks like it's time to make one up.
Have you ever used a leather burner to melt your string/sinew down at the ends? I made some little turn shoes the other day and used a burner and it worked even better than when I'd used a lighter in the past, not to mention you're not directly exposed to a flame. It allows you to press the string down while melting it so it sticks better and doesn't get over burned.
Thanks for the tutorial! I'm trying to make a little duffle bag for the first time.
Really nice to follow the step by step tutorial ! Thanks a lot from France.
One of my favorite handles to make, I use them a lot.
I m a leather designing student and u videos are really so much helpful great work sir
great video. Thanks for taking the time to explain the steps as well as the video close ups.
I love this, you explained everything so well, really learned alot from this. Definitely going to try this out, even though I dont have a project to attach this to ghehe, thank you so much!!
Another long-standing question answered (just how DO they make those handles?) Thanks again for posting these!
Love the way you do your tutorials!!
Thanks for explaining everything and with measurements. I was watching another video and they totally skipped the measurements on the ends.
Excellent,I love watching your work
Very nice nice way to teach
Love you sir
Your videos are GREAT!!! Thank you for sharing.
I follow you on Instagram - I didn't realize you had a youtube channel. I was looking for instruction on these handles (feeling a bit overwhelmed by them, well.... less so, now)
Happy to see you make videos - and thanks for the fabulous instruction!
WOAH, DUDE!! Totally tubular!
Very nice tutorial! I love the way you show every step with your expertise!
I just want to thank you so much for all the videos you make! You are the reason I started learning leather work in 2020.
Well done . love Your videos . Thanks for sharing.
I recently found your channel and subbed. Your videos are giving me some great tips to improve my leathercraft. Thanks!
AWESOME!!! i LOVE IT ...THANK YOU for sharing
Real hand made
Nice job...
This is a really excellent tutorial.
Awesome video... been wanting to add these kinda touches to my projects. Happy New Year to you and yours 😊🇨🇦
Great video! Looking forward to the bag, I plan to make one for my wife!
I just see him waving the sharpie all around and I'm like "Put the top on!"
I’ve had that problem all my life, thought I was alone in that misery.
@@shawnholton5182 Hey, join the club. We all like to "live on the edge" sometimes!! [Yeah, that was a fully intentional PUN!] 😊
I like your channel because you explain everything!
How much will you charge for that bag?
Just found your channel. Very cool. Thank you!
Lots of good info now I have a clue as to how to incorporate wire into a stetson rim
Thank you Eric! This was a very complete video. No real questions about the assembly and construction of the handle. Other questions though. In the quest to find the perfect leather cutting knife, I notice your yellowish/brass color knife looks very strong an beefy. Can you let us know what number blade is in it? That would tell me the handle size. It looks more substantial than a #11 X-acto blade. Something a bit thicker and stiffer. Always looking for better tools. Also, you use Weldwood Contact Cement. Have you ever tried other brands? I use Master's contact cement. For shoe making. Just the standard contact cement.
Thanks !... i am working on exactly this right now... are you watching me?🤣🇦🇺.
Happy New year!
Great Tutorial, Thank You!!!
Great tutorial. Thank you.
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏thank you for your
Information in this video.
Happy new year guys
What brand of glue do you prefer to use?
I've made several round handles for some bags I've made for my wife. It's always nice to see different methods and styling ideas.
I love your work.
Is just about to jump on and ask him the same thing
barge or weldwood for us :)
Thanks for the info
I've used both glues that Corter recommended and I've found that I prefer the weldwood brand a little better. It's easier to get, most hardware stores have it in stock. And it's a little thinner than barge. This is just my experience, you're mileage may vary.
clean work
This is very helpful! Thank you! 😊
Please make a magsafe wallet for the iphone 12
Could you please recommend a glue?
Thank you for the video
As always very interesting video, I feel more confident to do handles for bags I can do :) Thank you for this tutorial, impatient to see the sequel ;)
Nice channel. Favorited.
Happy New year.
Happy New Year to you as well!
I want to try this. Can you share the leather used on this. The name and where you got it. Love the color. I’ve only purchased chrome and regular veg that has a firm temper. Wanting to try more types. Also will you have the bag pattern available with your new video? Thank you for being so detailed in why you do what you do. Helps so much
Me gustan esos trabajos buenos
Thank you so much for your tutorials, I have been learning a lot following you. I have a question on this particular tutorial. You say: "Use a really strong glue". I have been looking for a powerful glue that settles almost on contact for a long time. Do you have this product in your inventory or can you suggest a brand that I can use? Thank you again :-)
They are now using Barge brand contact cement.
Barge 100% !! Don't get the Barge in the blue can or tube that is labeled " toluene free ", get the stink stuff lol... its the stuff in the yellow and red can.. Barge all purpose. The toluene free stuff is definitely weaker and not nearly as strong. You have to get it right the 1st time with Barge.... because if you are off any bit, ITS PERMANENTLY BONDED AND IT WONT COME APART AGAIN. lol hope you have a great one
Very informative
Thank u so much
Happy New Year Corter & Kayleena...Somehow your video slipped past me...Your Mother is going to looove her new bag 🤗, great work Corter.
Great videos
I would love to see the rest of this bag!
tune in for the next couple videos :)
@@Corter and also let me know where I could possibly purchase one!
You said never skive on a cutting board…. What should you do it on instead?
Great information regarding bag handle and stitching. Would like to know how to machine stitch. Regards.
Прекрасный мастер класс!
Hello love the videos!
What kind of strong glue are you using?
I hope that you mention tools at the bottom of the video with translation, so that beginners can understand with translation into Arabic and the explanation under the picture is your wonderful work
What brand of glue did you use? Thank you
Teşekkürler (thank you)
Thank you for video. What kind of leather is this?
Perfect!!!
Very job.
this is a great video, can i ask what glue your using?
When you bent the handle will some creases form on the inner side of the handle? Is this normal? I see some bags with creeses on inner side of the handles and some without. Are creases normal? But they don't always exist. what it depends on leather? or something else.
What’s your rule for how wide the leather needs to be depending on the diameter of the rope?
Keep hear use a good glue . What brand is best for this kind of stuff ? Thanks in advance .
Love the tutorial
Any way you can give us the thickness of the leather in mm to? For us not in the us
We don't work in mm unfortunately but I've seen some good charts online, I'm sure you could find one with a google search :)
Приветствую дружище, скажи каким клеем ты работаешь?
Would a little damping on outside help at all?
Could this be stitched by machine? Maybe with a lighter weight leather?
many thanks@@@
Happy New Year! Great tutorial. May I ask if you ever use tokonole to burnish the edges ?
nope! just gum trag :)
@@Corter why do you prefer gum trag instead? (I never used that one )
What sie was the cording? Is it available from Weaver Leather Supply?
I was watching your saddle stitch video, and in that you double back at the end with the stitch then burn the ends, yet in your usual craft videos i dont ever see the double backing of the thread, am i just blind or is there another stitching method you use?
We do! We just don't show it in stitching clips usually, but we do show clipping and melting the thread ends in most where the backstitch is visible
Is that a 5/32" stitching iron?
Great work! Where can i get that bone tool? Thanks for the great videos!
www.weaverleathersupply.com/catalog/item-detail/67-5203/bone-folder/pr_59111/cp_/shop-now/hand-tools/work-surfaces-setters/miscellaneous-tools
there you go :)
Cool
Where did you get that leather cording? I have looked everywhere online.
The chisel you used is the 5mm?
Hi what company made the leather splitter? Thanks.
What was the width that you set the caliper to
Weird question, What steel ruler is that? I have not been able to find a good steel ruler that is over 12". Please help!
P.S. love your videos.
I honestly haven't bought a new ruler in about 10 years because they last forever, sorry I don't remember where I got any of them from! Just make sure it has a cork back for anti-slip :)
@@Corter thank you!
Amazon sells a good selection of metal rulers.
@@LizDavis2009 thank you.
Found metal yardstick @ walmart
sweeeeeeeeeet!
