Making a Leather cylinder bag. Part 1

Wet molded end caps. Decorative stitching. All done by hand. Part 1 of a 2 part series. This video is the main body of the bag. Video 2 will show making a basic handle and completion of the bag. #Leather, #handmade , #skyrim #toolbag

I love this bag, love this video...the squeak of that leather is a sweeter sound than a lullaby sung by my momma...Thanks

It's nice to follow a leatherworker who doesn't have all the fancy tools. Makes me feel like I can do quality craftsmanship in my cold garage using hands, basic leather tools, and whatever other tools I have available in the garage. Kudos to the wine bottle wet mold!

Haha! I've got some really expensive tools that I use. But that's just cuz I'm a but of a tool snob.
However, all the tools I have are just nice versions. The inexpensive stuff does the same job. Just not as smoothly. Thank you very much for the kind words.

That's a damn quality looking bag man. 👍

Thank goodness finally a video without some annoying ass music playing in the background! Id but rather watch a video with natural noises of the work being done. Commentary is even better but anything but the dreaded music.. 😖
Great video though lol and thanks for not making us endure the dreaded background music! 🥴

[@oaktreeleatherworks]

Yeah, I was wondering if that was a negative factor.

Para sujetar las correas en su sitio utiliza cinta de doble cara para que no se mueva mientras lo preparas para coser. Y pon remaches en las hebillas en vez de tornillos resulta más barato. Y utiliza aceite de girasol para engrasar lo.

[@oaktreeleatherworks]

I use glue sometimes. This just wasn't one of them. I used Chicago screws so that the buckles could be replaced if needed or wanted.
I use neatsfoot or mink oil.

@@oaktreeleatherworks esos aceites mas de la mitad de los aceites que llevan son de girasol, solo es un apunte.

Beautiful bag. Color contrast. Excellent video production. What size tread & leather did you use ? Thanks

[@oaktreeleatherworks]

.8 mm flat waxed synthetic linen thread. And 6oz leather.

Why is the water soapy?

[@oaktreeleatherworks]

I've just always added it. Monkey see, monkey do.
