      Little King Goods is the best!!! There also the reason I started leather craft. Thx so much 😊

      @J.solomonlopez 4 года назад

      Oh well I guess the reason I should win that kit is because I’ve been into leather craft goods for quite some time and don’t have many tools plus I really love your vid’s

      It’s great follow all your steps, I’m so excited 🤗 if I win it I will make a gift for my wife with the tools because I don’t have many tools, I have been learning from 3 months ago 😅 but I really like it, if I win I will send you a picture of the gift for my wife 🤗

      If I won the kit I'd be just getting started in leathercrafting. I've been looking for a craft i can use to make beautiful things without needing a heap of space just to get started (I live in a small flat), and I think leathercraft is going to be my jam.

    My mother took me to a leather craft class many many years ago. My brother and I received belts from santa claus that year..... Over the years her tools have found the black hole of lost goods. Watching these videos has brought back those good memories, the smell of damp leather, the thump of the hammer as it strikes the stamps, sitting at the vise and using files to shape nail heads into new leather stamps ..... Now that my wife and I are raising our grandchildren winning this kit would allow us to share the experience of leather crafting with them and see if they too find it as enjoyable as I did.
    Thank you

    I'm not in leather craft, but my husband has a lot of interest in learning and expanding what he can create. We love watching your videos together and I would love to win this for him! He's an essential worker and having a creative outlet is such a stress reliever for him.

      There's cheaper sets than this are available on Amazon, so if you don't win this, consider surprising him with one! I'm so glad I started leather work,it has done wonders for my mental health since it is such a relaxing craft. 🤙

    @nikiwookie6698 4 года назад

    I've started researching about leathercraft for about 3months now. I'm very meticulous when it comes to my minimalist wallets and camera straps so I thought why not make my own? So I started watching videos on youtube on how to make my own, and good thing that I've learned from you first. It's not the tools that makes the best wallet but the passion of the crafter that made every stitch and every cut special.

But if anyone else has more need this kit... nevermind. I love your way to give away this gift! I like your style...you seem like an honest man. Keep on the good work!

    This looks like a cool start and as certain tools wear out you just replace them with higher quality ones. I dig it

    • @eccomi21
      @eccomi21 3 года назад +5

      I actually repurposed many of the tools I was lucky enough to already own. Like fine clock maker files to rough up the nice surface of the leather. Or metal scribers that work just as well on leather. Or the wing deviders that are used to mark metal as well.
      Basically if you're a mechanic or own a good toolbox you have half the tools you need already

    Hey!
    For years I have been considering trying leather work, but life and other priorities got in the way. I really enjoy working with my hands a crafting things. Im a newly graduated nurse and currently my life is all work, especially with the current situation. I'm often so exhausted after work that its hard to do anything but go home, eat dinner, watch Netflix/RUclips and pass out. I would love to have a skill/craft that is fun, simple and that I can do at home, to pull me away from the stress of work and even technology.

    I did a basic leather coaster in 7th grade YEARS ago...lol I'm 55 now and looked at getting some tools for Christmas, wife didn't get the hint and I figured I could wait. But every time I see one of your videos, I always think that looks so enjoyable and relaxing. If I win it, it will jump start me getting into the hobby. Keep up the great videos.

    I am just about to graduate with a business diploma. My final assignment in my Entrepreneurial Operations class was to design a small business, I chose leather craft. I have all of my research done and I intend to start business in a couple months. I was going to be buying better quality tools to begin, but winning this kit would help me a lot and give me inspiration until I have money to invest in more tools! Thanks!

    I’ve been looking to start leather working for a few months now but have never really set aside the funds to do so because I have been somewhat afraid I would not like it. This would be the perfect opportunity for me to see if I like leather working and hopefully pursue it as a hobby. Thanks for the opportunity to win this kit, and good luck to everyone!

    The competition is probably over, but I'm 31, and for my 30th birthday, my uncle gave me a leather key holder that may grandfather made many years before I was born. When I was about 5 or 6, my grandfather got very sick, and for the next 10 to 12 years after that he was immobile and in and out of hospitals with dementia.
    After getting the leather key holder, the smell of hand crafted leather flooded back all of these memories of him making bags, belts, and me watching him. I guess I'm wanting to get into leather work to remember the good times I had with him.

    I am 63 and have been crafting for years. Started doing some leather work a few years ago, I use a ruler and fine pen to mark my holes and drill them with my drill press then hand stitch. I have made a few Renaissance pouches for my kids and knife sheaths. This kit would make it easier as I would someday love to have a machine when I retire and get more into it.

    I have wanted to get into leather working for a few years now. I love building things and making things with my hands, and the idea of make things out of leather is really appealing to me. I have never done anything with leather, but I have done minor woodworking in my free time for the past few years and am always looking for new projects and skills I can learn.

    @ariatamanaei9141 4 года назад

    I started leather crafting for about 2 weeks ago, because i got bored in quarantine and because i was always interested in leather and leather crafting, i picked it as a hobby and i love it. I have bought some basic stuff, but i still do not have many tools that i feel is essential, and since everywhere is closed right now, i can't go and bye them, so i think this kit could help me to complete and upgrade my tools.

  • @AGL1205
    @AGL1205 4 года назад +10

    I will say for me it has been a trial and error for almost two years since I started leather craft. There are tools I purchased that I honestly realized I didn’t need and some tools I still use that are entry level tools. I’d say the most expensive part out of all of this is actually the leather itself, however there are plenty of sites that allow you to purchase by the sq ft. Another thing not mentioned here is the designing of your pieces. Unless you plan to hand draw everything, which is totally fine, it’s much better to have software like illustrator to make your designs and save them and mass produce if you decide to to. My overall experience has been great, it really is just making the time and having the patience. Your craft will only get better with time.

    After seeing your video with Peter Mckinnon, I have followed you, watched your videos over and over. I'm a photographer that likes to stay busy with hobbies. I started with wood working but I can't store all the wood and machines I would like. And after watching you, I searched Amazon for the right set of tools, but one never set in. I have been wanting to start this craft and I think this would be the best opportunity with the stay at home order for me to familiarize myself with this awesome skill.

    After watching your videos for over a month, it has motivated me to start leathercraft on my own. I currently do not have the kit or the leather to get started. Once this lockdowns are over I am planning to buy these. If I win this, it will help me a lot in getting started.

    I haven't done leather crafting yet but I have had the desire to do it for two years now. I haven't been able to buy any leather crafting tools that whole duration because I've been putting 100% of my income into paying off student loans so I can be out of debt, but my goal immediately after getting them paid is to buy leather craft tools like I have been wanting to for the past two years! I want to use the tools to learn leather crafting for personal happiness, gifts for friends and family, and hopefully make a business out of it. Even if I don't win the kit, that is still my goal and I honestly can't wait! Thank you Ryan (Little King Goods) for being an inspiration to do leather crafting and I hope you stay safe. Love from Michigan!

    I am new to leather craft. I’ve watched all your videos 2-3 times and made an Amazon list of things I need to start. I contacted Acadia leathers to get one of their “less nice looking” leather for a discount to start practicing. But that little kit would really help to start small (wallets, keychain, etc)

    I need to be creative and that's my passion but I was blind to choose a path, at that point I came to see your videos. I became so fascinated on leather crafting and Google more about that, browse more videos on leather crafting and slowly I get started to do crafting. One of the challenges which I face was tools 😂 still facing. I made my first wallet by seeing your video, obviously your videos inspired me alot. I am making leather goods for six months with minimum tools. I am an Indian citizen, here I didn't find quality tools in markets. I am compromising alot in quality of my products, only because of tools. In amazon it seems excessive for me as a beginner so if I get this tools definitely it will be a turning point in my life.🥰 Thank you LKG

    Loved this tutorial about starting leatherworking with this inexpensive kit. I noticed how frustrated you got when working with that dull knife. You could sharpen it. Even cheap steal will take a razor sharp edge, and make the cutting easier. However the cheap steel just won't hold an edge very long. Just a thought. Thanks for making this video. This is something I have been thinking of for a long time. Well done! Keep up the great work.

I've always had an interest in it but never took the time to learn it.

    Hi Ryan, I'm from Indonesia (like that even matters). I've been watching you for so long, not long enough, but surely have watched all of your struggles. You inspired me to try leather crafting, been doing it for 3 months (using tools that are cheaper than what you bought in this video). And I just want to say thank you for being such a great inspirator and a teacher for me and all of your subscribers. I'm not really expecting to win your give away, because I live on the other side of the world. But I'm really hoping that you'd spill your kindess to this overseas guy, it'd be such a real motivation for me to keep doing this craft. Thank you very much

      You could look online on alibaba if you want the same tools but for a cheaper price. A big part of his price is tax and profit from a shop. Indonesia isn't far from China and i bet post is cheap so you could spend a lot less but get the same.👍🏻

    I just started leather craft maybe two and half months go. I was at a flea market and came across groveleathergoods and just was amazed and it sparked me with I can make that. That brought me to RUclips and your channel. I started out with vintage leather for the antique mall. My tools were X-acto knife, a fork, a nail and a little screw drive kit to punch the holes. I got lucky and found some more vintage leather but it’s be needing some help with getting it moisture back and cutting is pretty rough. I have now upgraded to one 4mm 6 prong stitch puncher along with a wood slicker. All of my wallets have been rugged looking and I would you the tools to make them more classier looking. My goal is for this to become a hobby that I can sell for inexpensive to people that just buy for the handmade product.

    I have always found leathercraft to be interesting. To see a piece of leather go from a sheet into a beautiful, handcrafted piece of art is truly amazing. The first thing I would attempt to craft would be a wallet for my dad. He is a nurse and has been pretty stressed out with everything going on in the hospitals due to covid. His birthday is coming up soon and I want to be able to do something for him even though I cannot really go out during this time.

    I used to have a boss who leather crafts. It always peaked my interest and I have wanted to get into it. I started watching your videos and little by little am waving to get a kit.

    It is good to develop skills with minimal, low quality tools. If you like leatherwork then, you will love it with each high quality item you purchase.
    I made my first leather project in 1974 and used woodworking tools to do it. I do it as a hobby and only sell items at cost to friends. That supports my leather addiction and keeps the cost to a minimum. I do not want the tools but good luck and happy crafting to the lucky winner.

    Hello! I have never done leather craft before in my life, but this video is inspiring me. I go on two to three service trips every year with both my church and my school. Most often we go to third world countries (Mexico, Philippines, Columbia etc.) and build houses or water supply lines. These trips often cost upwards of $2,000 each, and most often I’m left to come up with that cash on my own. I’ve gotten really good at coming up with fundraising ideas, but I’m always looking for sustainable, cheap projects that provide actual value to the people who donate to me. This video has shown me how simple and affordable it is to create a high quality product that I think a lot of my friends would enjoy. I would hope to take this kit and master this specific wallet and then hopefully move on to more complex designs like bags and laptop folders. :) thanks for doing this btw it’s really cool of you to support your subscribers and people who are just starting out in leather craft.

    You were my intro into leathercraft. Seeing your videos got me inspired to get into this trade. I've been in it for a few months now and have been enjoying it a lot. I don't know if it's something you'd be interested in doing but I would appreciate it if you could show us how you sharpen your tools (edge bevelers, knifes, etc). I've seen multiple videos online but I would appreciate one from you because of the quality/detail you put into your videos.

    I don't have much experience with leather crafting other than just cutting out an outline and that's it. Getting started with basic tools would be a great chance to improve my skills and craft the things I wanna make...Lately I've been looking for wallets that would really fit my need but it's just so hard to find and watching so many leather crafting videos like the ones from your channel really makes me wanna make one myself ^__^

    I made my own kit based off of the things that I knew I was interested in and since I didn’t want to spend a whole lot of money, I didn’t buy the most expensive items. So, several pieces were in their raw state. I already had some varnish for wood, so I’m just putting several layers of varnish on them, so things like the burnisher are SUPER smooth!

    Hey man! I've never tried leather crafting before, but was just telling my wife the other day that I wanted to make a leather mouse pad and business card holder. I explained that I've been intrigued by leather crafting and that now would be a great time to try. I was trying to find a good entry level kit like this. Stay safe!

    I have been wanting to get into leathercraft for a while now but I havn't had the time. With the quarantine I have had a lot of time to watch your videos and its really inspiring me to get into leathercraft. I love leather accessories and would love to make them for myself.

    I just got into leather crafting around a month ago and Ive been enjoying it so for I’ve made a few wallets but they haven’t be very good. I don’t have many tools I’m using a fork a nail and a steel hammer to punch holes and it’s just not going as clean as I’d like. I think this kit would help me out making it easier to do. Would like to make my own line of wallets and belts and shoulder bags. Thanks for the awesome videos and stay safe in these dark time. Much love!!!

    Very nice work! I recently just developed an interest in leather craft when I bought a leather notebook. I was frustrated with not having a place to store my fountain pen with the notebook and was looking all around on the internet to find a solution. I saw a really clever pen holder design and thought “you know what I could do this myself and get exactly what I want.” I also would like to make some nice items like the flap wallet you showed here for my kids so they can have something nice that was made with love. Great video and keep up the great work!

    I've been doing Leather Craft as a hobby for less than a year, with the bare minimum. I am extremely proud the products I have made so far and I use them every day. I would love the opportunity to use this kit to expand on some of the tools I already have and add some new ones along the way. I am still a beginner at this, but I want to see where it takes me.

    Working with your hands are important. I'd like to throw my name in the hat for the win so that my daughter can experience the joy of leather work. She's so close to going diving into a craft. Her RUclips channel is full of crafty stuff.

    I’ve been thinking about trying leather crafting. I’m a hobby woodworker and have dabbled in and will restart my interest in blacksmithing. Getting my hands on this starting kit sure would be another fun thing to do.

    I got started with this or a very similar kit. Got it for 2019 Christmas, and took a trip to the nearest tandy to get some leather and liquids to start crafting. I've been playing around making my own patterns since January 2020.

    I am a maker...woodworking is my specialty. However, my wife and I moved and I lost my dedicated workshop. I am now relegated to the kitchen table and all my woodworking tools have been sold or are in storage. I have been watching all your videos and think that leatherwork would be a great way to keep my creative juices flowing in a small space. I really would love to give it a try but hesitant to buy all the tools until I know I can do something with them. Thank you for considering me in the contest and please...keep up the great video content.

    I've been crafting for over 20 years since I was a kid but mostly by making detailed greeting cards that can slide, pop out, flip and of all sorts for friends and family. I've been looking around for a very long time to find a way to get these skills that I enjoy so much to make more people happy and make some money at the same time. Recently, I found your RUclips page and I have been so inspired by your work that I am planning to dive into this leather-crafting world. Been looking around for some basic tools to give it a try, then I stumbled upon this video. I really hope I could win the kit so I can start this newly-found hobby and hopefully career. You won't be disappointed. Thank you so much for the inspiration.

    Hi! I'm a young Italian videomaker and photographer, i've been into leather making a lot in the last months and i would like to try it out my self. I'm moving to Australia with my wife in search of a change and i feel like leather making could be a new hobby and maybe more. Just like you i feel the need to change from my actual photo and video job and this could be the key moment for that change! Hope to win the kit! Keep up with your work, your videos are all beautiful.
