I have never done any leather working in my life, and I don't particularly intend to, and yet ive gone and watched every single one of your videos. They're so calming, you're the Bob Ross of handmade dog supplies
+Cymbre Smith glad you are enjoying the videos 😁
I can't wait to make my new puppy a leash!
Your channel is so important, Thank you so much for making these wonderful tutorials and sharing your talent and knowledge.
Hi +Olive Hound glad you like my videos 😁
Hi, I love your work! I was wondering is there a specific place you prefer buying your stains/dyes from, specifically the ones like here which are brighter colors like blue or red? Or was this one you made your own?
Hi there, I buy custom coloured hides from Metropolitan Leather and they supply me with the coloured stain. They have just started selling smaller bottles of stains too in different colours. Worth a look. Jo
Hi, thanks for the video. Very good work. What kind of leather are you using and how many ounces is it? Thanks.
Thank you 🙂 I use veg tan bridle butt from Metropolitan Leather and Sedgwick's, I use use 3.5-4mm thickness but I'm not sure what that is in oz.
Hi, I've just found your channel. Great to see you, not so many women working with leather! Am learning myself. Can I ask what leather you use? Is it bride or ordinary veg-tan?
Thanks
Hello +Mary Byrne I use 3.5-4mm veg tan bridle butt for most of my leatherwork Inc the dog collars, leads, belts, and equestrian items. I also use 2-2.5mm veg tan bridle shoulder for stuff like keyrings, phone cases, boxes, etc.
Is the lead 6 feet long?
Could you tell me about the tool you use to hold your work as your sewing and if you make it yourself Thank you I love your tutorials
Hi +Michelle Ford it's a saddlers clam, I got it from Abbey England (they do international shipping) you can also get a small stitching pony from Tandy Leather Company. I think Cumbria School of saddlery had some for sale, if you are in the UK that could be worth a look too. Thanks and glad you like the videos 😀
Thank you SO much for these educational leather working videos! what is the knife called that you use to make the egg point & cut the strap? thank you!
Hiya +Kelly Vuker glad you like the videos 😀 I use a single head knife that I got custom made by Denis from Celtic Knife Craft on Etsy. (he hasn't got it listed anymore but I'm sure if you email him he can sort you out) www.etsy.com/uk/shop/CelticKnifeCraft?ref=search_shop_redirect thanks Jo
What weight (thickness) have you opted for for this project?
Our collar and lead are both tired and I’m wanting to make him a new set ☺️
Heya Paul, I used 3.5-4mm bridle butt for this lead 👍
How do you get the flesh side of the leather smooth? (Côté chair lisse) J'adore vos vidéos
I buy finished hides from the tannery so they are finished by them and I only need to stain the edges and polish around the turns. You could try acrylic resoline from fieblings.
are the straps cut manually? or what do you do to cut them? ty xox
Heya, I use a tool called a strap cutter to cut strips off of the hide.
Hi, can I ask your thoughts on using Contact Adhesive on your turns prior to stitching, is this frowned upon traditionally? I've always thought, it can only help add strength to an Item; although maybe overkill on a dog lead. Thanks for sharing your knowledge really appreciate you taking the time to share.

Hello +TeaPotWood yes you can glue your turns if you like. I know a master saddler that solely glues items and uses no tacks to hold work together. Thanks Jo
Did you mean leash not leap 🤔
Where is dog leap, genius? She wrote: dog lead!
hello the dog I'm getting is a pittbull puppy she break off of this
Don't make her one like this then, is that maybe a good idea?
Train your dog. A horse won’t break off a properly made lead like this.
