    That's a lot of work. I can see why it takes a lot of time and skill! I think a lot of people who don't do leatherwork look at that and say it's a small object, but it requires a lot of handwork even with cutting dies, sewing machines and skivers. They also sometimes don't realize why they cost as much as they do, but look at the equipment you have to buy. The machines and leather aren't cheap. Love your videos!

    I like how you back the binding agent away from the edge of the leather. It can show up on the final project as an unsightly line. You're also burnishing the interior edge segments. Attention to detail is everything. You're a top notch craftsman Parker.

    I’ve noticed how crappy wallets are at stores now. The everyday big batch, off-shore made ones. I appreciate quality and the workmanship. Every wallet is not created equal

    Where has Parker gone, is he still doing leather work. He is a legend if you work in leather. He is like a younger version of Corter. I got into leather work watching him, Diesel punk pro, Corter and Little King goods

    FYI, when using a Bic lighter to melt your thread, wipe the melted end with the metal guard of the lighter to avoid any finger oil transfer. It works great and any excess thread wipes right off your lighter once cooled.

    I made my first wallet the other day with pigskin and 2-3 4-5 ounce leather, took me five hours to stitch together because pigskin is a gigantic pain to mark for my hand stitching tools. Finished it, brought it to class all built and good looking, then everyone started to compare it to the mass produced cheap wallets from over seas.

    Hi Parker, I liked the wallet very much, I just purchased your pattern for the #51 from your web site store and I also have a question for you. Where do you get those plastic squeeze bottles for your contact cement and do they hold up to the cement chemically? They do a really neat job of applying the cement and I would like to give them a try. Thanks and please keep the videos coming I really enjoy watching and learning from them.
