A common mistake I see in some beveling is making sure the face of the beveler is straight up. Not the handle but the face. Depending on the tool may even have to tilt it a little towards the face. This will really help stop tool marks. As you said tiny increments are the key also. I’m also in the none piston camp.
Ok I’ve done leather-craft for years first time was in the 8th grade I’m 63 now my problem was to try and get it done in the first pass we all need to make slow lighter passes to get it completed it works better for me that way thanks for posting, I like your T shirt
Latigo veg re tans bevel nicely ❤thats what i use for collars & leads & always bevel everything. My biggest problem is finding a one i like the edge it makes😂 Realized not everyone would get my joke. I'm BN silly referring to the other type of beveling 😂
Great video!! I’m going to try it again. Too bad the bevels don’t come thicker. Very hard to hold those thin tools with arthritis. I’ll have to make a wooden slip-over on my wood lathe.
Thank you! Just keep practicing at it. You'll get there. I can understand how the small handles can be hard to work with if you have arthritis. Larry had a great suggestion...I've even seen thread wrapped around the handles to bulk them up. (Although it didn't look very comfortable).

Excellent video
Only one I have now is a narrow one, thanks for the tip, I'm getting a wider one now. 👍👌
Thanks for the video

Making sure your fingernails are properly trimmed cannot be understated. Scratches are repairable earlier on, but best to avoid the PITA altogether.

On some of my small diameter handles I go to the hardware store and get some tubing to add to the handle. Ace sells it by the foot lengths.

This is tooling, not beveling.
Tooling is the general term for this but the tool being used in this specific video is a beveler, hope that helps!
