Hi there,
I'm brand new to leather, but I've been a woodworker for years. You are right about stropping. That's how I keep my hand carving chisels nice.
When you make a strop, avoid using a 2x4 as your wood base. As temperature and humidity changes the wood will move and distort its shape a bit. Instead use a piece of 3/4" MDF, or a scrap of cabinet grade plywood. Those are dimensionally stable, so there will be no wood movement issues to change the shape of your sharpening surface.
Happy crafting 😊
Greetings,
Thanks for the overall video, with practical tips and hacks.
Another quick tip for beginners, a soldering iron can also burn your threads and if you adapt your small stamps to thread into where the tip goes you can use itbrand with. You can also adapt a cheap drill press for handheld drills to hold the soldering iron to use as a hot stamp.
These tips are so genuine, I don’t know much about leather craft , but I can see them be actually helpful
Thank you 10000x over for putting such quality content out. Your channel has inspired me to finally start learning leather craft. I’m excited to try some of the projects on here.
I've been doing leather for a few years, and you showed me some new tricks. Especially the heat gun for scratches, and the string trick for stropping edge bevelers. Good stuff!
"Creating corners. There's a way around this." Nice pun.
My man!!!!! One of the best videos I’ve seen so far. The presser foot trick....heat gun to get out scratches....edge beveled sharpening!!! Daaaayyyymmmmnn !!!!

This has got to be one of the best tips video i have seen in a while! Thanks for sharing and I hope you make more. I'm new to leather and learning stuff like this makes it more fun and less scary. xoxo
Thanks a million for your tips and the way you share it. Love your workshop.
LOVING the new space, man. Watched your videos on it with Peter, and your tour and it makes an epic backdrop :) Keep smashing it.
I don't leather craft but man its soo satisfying to watch you work. It so awesome to see leather working. Keep it going.
Awesome video! I love the tips and tricks videos. I’m gearing up to start leather work and really appreciate all that extra help.
Your videos are so easy to watch and helpful!
I'm just learning about bookbinding, but would love to combine it with leatherworking someday to make beautiful leatherbound journals and/or books. I love how your explanations are clear and to the point.
Love your work. Thanks for sharing your tips. The string for the beveler perfect. But trim allowance is a key tip. Thank you. Cant wait to get some more leather.
Thanks for another great video. Love your workshop.
Very good tips! I discovered couple of these tips already by myself, but few are new to me, so thanks for that ;) Keep up the good work Ryan!
Man, you are so inspiring! I admire your enthusiasm and devotion. Since I discovered your videos on RUclips you've been encouraging me to pursue my own leather craft thing. God bless you! Greetings all the way from Bulgaria! :)
Thanks so much!!!
Fantastic tips, especially burnish/edging & #10 re: scratches. Thank you! 👜👞
Gracias por todo los que nos compartes. Es una maravilla ver tus videos, por todo que aprendo y sobre todo con el sentimiento que trasmites. Mis mejores deseos para tus proyectos. Saludos desde España.
Putting out amazing content and has pushed me into leather craft. #handmade #leathercraft
Thanks for this mate, for an old bloke starting a new craft, this was a cool insight. Cheers from Australia!
I really appreciate your timely and useful hacks and tips! Although I work a full time job, my heart longs for creativity. Since I create several different genres, I forget the basic skills sometimes when starting a new project. I create custom journals, from dyeing and baking my paper to creating a 300-page book. So I’ve made all the book innards and I want to make a leather cover, 1st leather journal 😬. Can’t tell you how many hours I’ve wasted and leather I’ve ruined 😡. But I’m not giving up, I keep searching and researching and that’s how I found you. Thank you for stepping up and sharing your talent and your love for it with others. I’m listening …
Thank you so much!!!!! I’ve learned something amazing. Definitely gonna do the foil hack.
Thank you for sharing these insights ! Sending up some love to you and your family from Brooklyn ! ✌️
We love this growth. Love this channel
Thanks for the support Susie!!
You convinced me to try leather crafting out. I only bought the leather and the tools you used for tracing and cutting out the leather pieces, just to see if I could do that part lol. I did it pretty dang well and now i'm motivated to go further. Just purchased the rest of the tools to finish the job, hope I can do it. Thanks for all of these videos!
how’s it going now?
Could you make a video on sizing your projects? Love your vids man.
Thank you so much for helping us with theses important tips, tricks and hacks 😅 , hope you have all the best 🌸🌸
Thank you!
Thread zap to melt the wax buildup is genius!
Thank you LKG !! This helps a lot
Hi Ryan! You are really a cool man! Your advice to pull out the spring on the sewing machine divided my sewing into before and after. Respect from Ukraine, thank you very much for what you are doing!
Priceless, thank you.
Great tips. Thank you.
Great video as usual.. Big fan from Egypt and just starting in leather handcraft
Excellent tips! Thanks!
Thanks Ryan for good tips! Signed up for Skillshare too.
I like your videos, I am locked down in the UK right now and wanted to learn something new so ordered tools and will be learning by the end of this week virus permitting! Thanks for all the helpful videos.
You are an inspiration! Keep going! ✌️
Awesome tips and tricks! As always thanks for the amazing content Ryan! 🇨🇦🤟🏽
Thank you. I learn so much from your videos..
Nice video! Love all the useful tips & tricks.
Thank you for all the small and important notes and tips on using leather tools. Greetings to you from Syria, from Damascus. I am interested in the videos you make and I can learn from you from a distance. Thank you and I will subscribe to your channel.
Thanks for the tips, appreciate you sharing.
Tks LKG, very helpful
LKG droppin' knowledge babyyyy

Finally got an update. Thanks
Trim allowance is so good. Thank you so much for the tip.
Love this video man
Your videos are the best 👍
Thanks alot for the tips!
all I can say is AWESOME! as a beginner I am sometimes overwhelmed and even intimidated with leathercraft. THANK YOU. you got a sub today! :)
I don't make leather goods but I find your videos so entertaining (and relaxing) to watch. Even this video where I am learning about all the different tools, hacks, and techniques. Keep up the good work!
P.S. The wood burnishing tool is my favorite part of every video for some reason!
Thanks Thomas!
Great video as always, thanks!
Thank you :) great tips 🦾
These are all great tips! I don't have any tips, but I would really enjoy seeing a video about what you do with your leather scraps. In sewing, it's easy to avoid fabric waste and fabric scraps can be used in so many different ways, so I'm curious to know how leather scraps can be repurposed or recycled.
Nice one nice, thanks for the tips. Am a beginner and i appreciate your advice. Thanks
Hi Ryan! Thank you for all your tips and tricks!! I've picked up so much from watching your videos. And thanks for the two free months of skillshare. I just signed up!!
Those were truly useful tips - for me anyways!! Thanks so much for sharing - especially sharpening rotary blades - I spend so much money on them, but always save the used blades for paper and pattern cutting - (I make clothing) - now I know I can sharpen them and use them on my leather projects!!!
Awesome Hacks, Lovely.
Good tips. Thanks for sharing!
Really a pro....
Thanks .
It's an inspiration.
About to get my first leather and tool and learn how to do this jazz.
Super awesome video. Itd be great to have more like this one
Thank you SEW MUCH for the spring hack for my Juki!. Had no idea you could do that to reduce the pressure, but will take mine out in the morning! It’s been driving me crazy! I already filed down the bottoms of my pressure feet with a Dremel which helped too.
I made a 'saddlebag' (about 16" x 8" 4") for use on an antique bicycle. This would get rough use over the years so I used slight bits of epoxy to lock the stitching in hidden areas. Several spots along long lengths of stitching and on stitching of straps and buckles. In case the stitching gets nicked or cut, the stitching won't all pull out.
Thanks for the heat sealing of the waxed thread to lock the ends.
Wow….. priceless ! Thank you thank you, for the time and effort you put in these videos. God bless u brother and gives prosperity in every way ! I mean it.
Nice clean shop.
Gracias por todo el aporte de conocimientos que haces, DIOS TE BENDIGA !!!
I bought a corner punch which is smaller than I wanted so I exclusively use the cutting method for nice rounded corners.
I use a tobacco filters for coloring edges of my leatherworks, it's very simple and comfortable :)
Thanks for the video! Lots of great tips for details I might have missed if you hadn't highlighted them.
Great work!
Great video - thanks!
Man the stroping advice alone was gold.
Thank you so much, the tricks you gave us are just amazing !!!
Thanks!!
Great stuff!
Damn! I was really wondering how the hell to sharpen my edge beveler!
Thanks a lot man. Love your channel)))
thank you for sharing!
OmG!! The edge beveler one got me! I have to keep buying new ones cause no one knows how to sharpen them.. thanks for that !
Thank You so much 💯
Thanks, very Nice vídeo
Thanks man
Before watching this video I wondered if there was anything new or useful here. Uh... yeah! Thanks for all the great tips!
Haha yay!
Dude yes! I always burnish with dye alone!
thanks man
Haha now I know what that piece leather is for that came with the kit 🤪I can also use this on my wood chisels. Thank you. I love all you guys that post these DIY videos. You all have made the Pandemic just a little, no A LOT!!! More bearable.
Must add this. I just saw this thread burner in an art store. Guess what I'm buying tomorrow 😁
Loved #9 figured it out about 6 months ago. Dye for edging is brilliant
Ur video helps a lot
Fantastic video. Dull edge bevellers have been a consistent difficulty for me; the string trick is just genius! Thanks so much! Once you get your cheesy intro/outro thing sorted your channel will easily be one of the best! 😁👍
Very good video.
