Being a leather worker I would say that the leather is too thin for a wallet ,you need around 1.6mm or 4oz min. But that is my opinion ,each to their own. Good luck with your crafting.😊
Don't use tokonole on chrome tanned leather, it doesn't work well. And for chrome tanned, you need paint for the edges, not Tokonole, that's why your edges don't look good. Also, if you form leather to make cases for headphones, you should use natural vegtan, it forms and dries properly; chrome tan, like you're using, does not. As someone else said, you should slow down. I used to be in a hurry when I made things, trying to get it done in one day, like a bag or wallet. Now I just take my time and do it right. The outcome will look much better.
Here's every video is a learning experience for myself. I watch videos of people doing something like this first. Then I make a video myself and try to replicate the product. Just practice, I have terrible products so far.
@Leathercraftman it's awesome that you're learning through videos and experience. I think your products are great. Keep it up and they will definitely get better!
I’m enjoying the content but unfortunately your execution leaves ALOT to be desired, SLOW it down and put some love into your work!!! Some audio would be nice you can edit it in after making the products. IMO. 👍🏻
Thank you. But I never said I was a pro. I'm a natural beginner. And all my videos are a challenge for me every time. To see if I'm gonna make it. I don't do audio for one simple reason! Some people like it without it

What did you use on the edges? Glue or conditioner?
it's mastic. It's actually resin
How did you learn to leather work?
