Hi, Gray . Kung Hei Fat Choy !! I'm watching your video for long time. I'm form Hong Kong too. So shyly to tell you... I'm starting to make leather goods for myself because your video. Great Video and so detail to introducing the skills. It's really helpful. I'm sorry for my English were poor... And... Could you mind to advice about purchase place for the buckle of watch strap ? Because i had been spent a lot of time to sourcing about this stuffs in SSP.... But i didnt find it ... I'm so sorry asking you like this... And , ADD OIL !!!!
Hello: May you please, tell me, which is the name of the toll that is similar a fork. I would like buy one of them and I do not know the name to search it. Thanks
How hard is it to buy a super cheap nato strap and copy the placements/measurements? That way you also get the hardware for the strap... Though thickness and length are ultimately your decision with limitations ofc set by the watch (such as lug width and space between body and spring bar)
@@Kurt49 Right, don’t take this too harshly but brace yourself: there are cooking videos without recipes provided and tutorials with recipes provided. This video here is not a tutorial, it shows how the OP makes it. One can still follow along as it is extremely easy but measurements are really neither necessary nor to be expected since it’s, well, not something like a tutorial. I’ll happily concede that such info would be missing if the OP for example claimed to provide a tutorial - but they clearly didn’t. Don’t berate others for your faulty interpretation of things...it just makes you look incredibly stupid and is very self-demeaning. Surely you are better than that?
@@Kurt49 Absolutely no problem. Starting out on a first project is always daunting and having templates and measurements does make it feel safer, I perfectly understand that. Have been there several times, too! But I think this video still is very useful since it seems that all steps are shown in enough detail and as I said since you need the hardware anyways and I have no idea where to get them separately you can get a cheap nylon strap and use that thing as a rough template for measurements. At least that’s what I would do. Or you could make a mock-up out of paper first to get a feel for the process. Or both. Believe in yourself, you can do it. Starting something new is difficult and daunting but even a failure provides for learning.
@@-----REDACTED-----True! That is exactly how I did it. I purchased a cheap bright orange nylon NATO strap and removed the loops and buckle and then used the nylon as a template. It came out perfectly and I am pleased with the end result.

Hello, tell me, where do you get such rings and buckly? The option is spinning in my head, disassemble the NATO strap
Buy a cheap nato strap and take them off.
Very interesting to watch, Good job. Somehow when I try projects like this they never really come out
Thank you very much!!!
Great hand- made belt.
How do i make this but with thick canvass? Do I use the same tools to punch holes and sew?
Terrific. 👍
where to buy these rings and buckles any link plz thx
What weight leather did you use for this? 4-5oz? Or do you not measure leather thickness like this where you're from? Do you measure in mm?
yes, that's about 5-oz, I measure leather in mm myself, but I can do oz
love the videos, keep them coming!
Do you have measurements? Length? Where to punch holes for strap?
Amazon or Tandy leather. Heck even hobby lobby has them. If you have a local leather shop check with them.
Enjoyed this. :)
Where do you buy your leather?
Looks great with the Rolex.
Thank you very much!!! by the way, its a fake rolex!!!
Nice work! But i think the glue was kinda unnecessary
Yes, you are right
MUITO BOM, ONDE ENCONTRO ESTE TIPO DE ARGOLAS?

Hello:
May you please, tell me, which is the name of the toll that is similar a fork. I would like buy one of them and I do not know the name to search it.
Thanks
It's called a stitching chisel
Nice work! With the amount of time/labour that goes into making that, it must be hard for manufacturers to compete with the chinese jesus lol.
Kind of a steampunk thing! Thank you for sharing!
good job
quanto misura in centimetri la striscia di pelle?
Very good
Thank you very much!!!
Muito talento!!!👍👍
Привет! Где взять такие кольца ???
i think that this kind of strap is for big watches.
Thank you very much!!!
Only the person knows the meaning to wear nato strap, who also love to wear mechanical movement watch.
that's not simple
Fantastic job- but what a monstrosity of a band...
Привет! Где ты был так долго?
From start to finish it’s just watching him make the strap doesn’t give you any information on
measurements or thickness of strap. Boring.
