Helluva good job on that shirt. Yeah, that is a lot of work. I sort of thought there might be a "fringe cutter" that did multiples at one time. If there isn't...then there should be!
My dad was into leather work and had been my entire life. He passed away about two years ago and I inherited all his leather tooling , a LOT of leather tooling, including two sewing machines. I've been watching your videos and I think I might give leather working a try. I wished I had learned while he was still alive. Thank you for your tutorials.
I'm sorry for your loss. I've pretty much learned everything I've been doing on my own and through RUclips videos, but I agree, learning from someone is usually a little better. Pick those tools up and give it a try, it's a great hobby and maybe you'll be able to connect with his spirit just a little bit. Thank you very much for the kind words and thank yu for watching!
Very nice. I have save up about 20 Elk and Deer tanned hides but may not live long enough to finalize my dream of making a shirt. You are talented. Beautiful shirt.
I have a small pile of skins and fabric waiting to be transformed into a garment or accessory too. I often wonder if I'll live long enough myself! Thanks for the comment and thank you for watching too!
Hey @Small Caliber Arms Review, I was hoping you could help me if and when you get the time. I was thinking of making the same thing, I woas curious on the buckskin tanned cowhide, how many hides did you need to use and what were the square footage if you remember? I was going to order some to make the same thing. Thanks if you can.
I don't remember exactly, I believe I mentioned it in the video, probably near the end during the summary. I also don't remember the square footage of each skin. They do vary in size but they are considerably larger than an actual deer skin. For some reason I want to say it took me 4?? Don't hold me to that though, I have slept since making that video.
Wow, I know you had alot of time into making that, but damned if I wasn't impressed with the detail you put into making that, especially the stitching part of it. How many hours total did it take to make it ?. Thx for the vid. BTW, great looking shirt to.
Good job my friend. That's a lot of work well done that's a real talent. I wouldn't try this myself LOL. If you used a machine would it cut a lot of time off? I suppose so.

Thanks! Yes, there are fringe cutters and you can even buy the fringe already cut if you want. Thanks for watching Santee!

Thank you!
That turned out awesome, great job. I really enjoy your video’s.
Thanks for the compliment and thanks for watching too!
Holy smokes Richard! That looked like it was a lot of work. Great job, most impressive.
It was a pretty good bit! Thank you!
About as much patience as sitting quietly in the cold day after day, waiting for that buck to come by......
That looked like A LOT of work.
That does take some patience! It was a lot of repetition! Thanks for watching Squib!
That's fantastic Richard , excellent job ... I tell you what tho , its something i couldn't do because I wouldn't have the Patience ...great video .
I wasn't sure if I'd have enough patience to finish it once I started it!
Love it
Thanks!
very informative video...thank you
Glad it was helpful!

Actually, it's right in the description, I used 2 sides. There is also a link in the description to Weaver Leather Supply.
Awesome, thanks for your help a bunch, leather prices have sure skyrocketed lately.
@@commander0078 everything has.

It's tough to say really, I worked on it for 2 days but took frequent breaks. Filming it takes up some time too.
How do you wash it?
Seldom, in warm water with no detergent, by hand. Dry flat, slowly and with good airflow while moving it around to keep it from hardening.
Good job my friend. That's a lot of work well done that's a real talent. I wouldn't try this myself LOL. If you used a machine would it cut a lot of time off? I suppose so.
Thank you! Yeah, with a machine I could make one in just a couple hours. If I do another one, I just may try it. Thanks for watching!
👍👍
Thanks!
