Crafting The ULTIMATE Leather Book Cover - Leather Craft
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 сен 2024
- In this leathercraft video, I design and create custom leather book cover. The cover is made from natural vegetable tanned leather that has been highly decorated using a combination of tooling, dyes, stitching and hardware. A custom leather cover is a terrific way to spruce up and protect any hard cover book in your collection. I hope you enjoy this leathercraft video and get inspired.

Takes a lot more work to make a leather cover like this than I thought. I always pictured it being a lot more simple of a process, boy was I wrong.
The ultimate book cover for The Ultimate Book. Beautiful.
But he will need to throw it away once they publish new edition 😅
You know .. they might decide that some of God words in that book is a mistake and we should remove it or replace it ..
What are you on about? That's not how Christians treat God's Word at all.
@@mandywinter8871 I decided not to answer his comment bc if you look at his name, he is probably muslim and not a Christian.
@@Dynamytguy
Oh so the bible didn't change ??
Come on .. be honest. This is not the same book that Christians used few hundred years ago .
Also why there is many different bibles in our current time ?!
@mohammadamr7759 One day, very soon, you will realize your mistake. When you do, remember that I told you that you should repent and trust in Jesus before it is too late. This is the last of this thread.
You can't beat handmade.
The amount of work that went into this is mind boggling. So many steps and each of them with nearly zero margin for error and high risk to screw up everything! It is always inspiring to watch a master at work. Thanks for sharing this.
Thank you very much!
beautiful work on a great Book.
and for rookies like me, thank for the re-take in the middle for the out-of-order assembly! Made me much edified to see its not just me.
Thanks. Every project has one of those moments.
Speechless. Thank you. All the best & God bless.
The text notes in the video are really helpful, and such a en enjoyable process to see. The tooling is inspiring to see and your blend of skills and abilities (crafting, tooling, carving, dyeing, spraying, painting) captures this project so well. Thanks for sharing and helping us learn! 😃
Thank you. I appreciate it.
Thats beautiful. I enjoy clever people.

6:30 - Using that stencil, you make it look REALLY EASY to line it up, but I'm just thinking how much of a problem I'd have. Going to make a cover here in a little bit and wanted to see if you had a video, and ofc you did!
Good luck!

Браво мастер🤝👍
Very beautiful! ❤
Thank you very much!
Sharp!!
Perfect!
Thanks 🙏
nice camera work
Thanks!
Beautiful work.
However, I think it's leave the rivets off. That book is meant to be carried with you and consulted OFTEN, making the rivets an obstacle. Insane being a traveler (whether by choice or not) she puking that out of your satchel, hoping it doesn't damage any of the bare essentials you're carrying. Distracting, even jarring thought, right?
Right.
Trabalho perfeito e vídeo muito bem editado. Parabéns!
Thank you for your support!
Perfeito ❤❤❤ lindo demais. Parabéns
Thank you very much!
I was wondering why you didn't use a marblized cotton rag paper on the inside
Harika
Muy bueno el trabajo Saludos👍👍👍
Thank you.
I want to buy this book cover
bella veramente !!
Thank you.
Merlin's beard! How much time did it take to accomplish this?
👏👏👏👏👏
Very impressive work. I'd love to see how you would make a cover for The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings
Thanks 🙏
Klasse super daumen hoch 💯✨️👍
Thank you very much!
👍Шедеврально! 👍
Thank you very much!
Brother… love your work however I can’t read and watch your video at the same time. Voice over would be awesome
Bahahhahahahaha. I didn’t even know there were words at the bottom until you pointed it out towards the end of the video hahah
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
And let the pleasantness Of Adonai our Elohim be upon us and confirm the work of our hands for us; O confirm the work of our hands! Tehillim 90:17. Fantastic work as always. Bravo!
Thank you very much!
Круто, я себе на Библию и тору такое же хочу
The peace of Crist. What a wonderful cover. How do I purchase a cover like this? I live in Brazil. God blesses
Thank you very much! Sorry I am currently not selling.
Thank you.
excelente su trabajo, vende usted patrones ........?
Thank you very much! Sorry I am currently not selling.
Beautiful book cover ! but terrible music (rhythmic noise?)
That is amazing, the detail and care is just unbelievable. It suits the holy book really well. How many hours it took to make this masterpiece? With love from the Netherlands
Thank you. It’s had to say because it takes a lot longer to make due to all the video filming. Maybe 10 hours.
Worth it though...
@@KingdomGloryLeather
Lovely leatherwork. (What's the music, by the way?)
Thank you. Sorry I don’t know the name of it off the top of my head.
bro turned his bible into a grimoire
Nah
Awesome work! Who plays the guitar?
Thanks. Can’t remember the name of the band.
Would you be willing to make another for the right price? I need one for my Bible.
Sorry very I don’t take custom orders. I appreciate your interest. 🙏
One of the most beautiful pieces I've seen you create so far. Question for you... How do you handle the dye on the inside of the cover, and it rubbing off on the book? I've created book covers plenty of times, and I've never been able to leave the inside not-line with something like pig suede, etc., because no matter what I do (burnish the inside with Tokonole for example) I always end up with some dye rubbing off on the books.
Thank you very much! I try to use just a light coat of dye on the inside. As far as whether or not it rubs off onto the book remains to be seen. This is really the first book cover I have made like this. So we shall see.
@@KingdomGloryLeather Thanks for the response! I'd definitely keep an eye on the spots that might not have gotten much Tokonole, as it might break down and disappear a little faster, leaving a spot just waiting to rub off onto the inside of your book. Either way, that is some absolutely phenomenal work!

Que couro seria esse amigo
It’s vegetable tanned leather.
❤️👍🏾✊🏾
Do you not have trouble with ur fiebings leaking everywhere? I noticed your storage seems all wood.
This is amazing btw!
Thank you. I always have trouble with dye getting everywhere. But I put paper towels down below them.
Beautiful work as always
Thank you for your support!
Great Stuff! I can't connect to your Website?
Thanks. Sorry I have no website
where can the templates you use be found (purchased)?
or is it self-production
Sorry I am currently not selling. I appreciate your interest.
I'm sorry, I didn't want to buy it from you, I was just asking where I could buy it
Do you do this for a living ?
Just a hobby.
How wide is your border
The border is 1/2” wide.
Thank you sir
Kikli kaleer
