I am so glad your aiming to post more content! I'm starting my own business right this very second because I got so inspired by your story/process/products/family. Your videos keep me so motivated It's crazy! I've been doing very time consuming, hand tooled/stitched one-off pieces for people for years, but now I'm moving toward a more production type of model. Put $5k into start-up and I'm waiting for equipment to come in the mail! Very early stages. Got a logo designed, and got my stamps ordered. I'm so pumped because I have a goal that I know I can achieve, and that's to be where you guys are now. I don't care to be rich, I just want to be able to support my family doing what I love to do. Thanks so much for the inspiration, and long live Stock and Barrel Co.! I truly wish for you and your beautiful family the best life has to offer, and I really hope you understand how much all of the work you put in to provide this content is appreciated. I love you guys!
Hey Parker, we think your great. I can completely relate to the uphappiness of the long hours away from family working at the sewing machine until late at night! Man, it really cut deep! The difference between us, is that you learn and 'bravely' action quicker, especially with the out sourcing. I think one problem I have made, is that when you work 100's hours just making, you have tunnel vision and you dont put your whole life & work life in perspective, for a lot of us, its important to perhaps go on holiday or spend time away from workshop, to make overview decisions and ensure you are doing the things that make you happy.
Nice place Parker! However, you have to watch out because your kids might get too close to the river. A fence or something could help prevent them from getting there
Very inspirational. So glad to hear you have time for your family while doing what you truly enjoy. This is the point where your creativity will skyrocket and I see you reaching a new level while rediscovering the passion you had in the beginning. Many Blessings to you and your family and thanks for sharing a part of your life with all of us!
Can’t remember if I commented on this video but I will say that size workspace is my dream size lol. Right now I only am able to work in my bedroom (not big enough space but hopefully I can eventually upgrade the size of my work space
@@edwelld very true and that made me laugh!...though on reflection I have been selling off kit recently and for the first time I have an empty bench top!!!
Dude, things are a rockin' at Stock & Barrel. That's a BEAUTIFUL workshop brother! Hoping to do something similar when we retire up to our 'stead in Arkansas in a few years. Your success is VERY inspiring. Thanks for that!
Thanks for sharing this next "Chapter" in your incredible leather journey. It is really exciting to see how your business is growing, scaling, evolving. I am a leather worker as well an am thoroughly inspired. I think your choice to have that company build your shed was a good one. Just what they saved you in "time" alone makes a huge difference. Think of all of the bags you can design in the time you saved. I think I want one of those myself someday. Love your location, the shots of your family, your machines (get me a towel, I'm drooling). Looking forward to seeing more. Thanks again for letting us "in the shop"!
Niiiiiiiiice.....thanks for the insight into the growth of your life! I'm sure being close to the river is good for the soul! Fam looking happy with you! Thanks for sharing.
Love your shop bro! I recognized it as a hickory shed right away and think the design and location are perfect. Also I appreciate how you addressed leatherwork becoming a drain on your life. Even doing something you love can become a drudgery when it becomes too much. Glad you found some balance and can spend time with family. All the best to you.
Yay so happy for you and your family!! One of your RUclips videos on top 10 tools needed for leather making was great! Very helpful especially for inspiring an amateur like myself 🤟🏻
I love your channel! My husband and I just started leather crafting in June and we love it so far. The business side is tough but I know with your videos and advice we will get it going. Thank you for everything you do!
Thats so awesome!! really happy for you guys and inspired too...The sound of the river would be so soothing I'd have to imagine and water surely has to be good for the soul - another good thing being so close is you could cast a line and catch some Sole. as always a great video!!!
Would it be possible for you to please 🙏 make a video on your leather sewing machines? I would love to get some professional tips on what to get and the Potential uses for them.
i started my own workshop here in Montreal, Quebec and its been only a year already i can see what you are saying with the happiness of owning your own challenges. Is there video you saw or a place you know that can show me the perfect layout of a good workshop? I certainly cannot offer myself such an amazing place like yours but i do have the spacing in my basement. I just need some advices video so i can upgrade my setup which i am in dire need. Awesome place you got there my friend. Salut!
This is really cool it's no better place like working from the comfort of your home,i need a workshop deffo at the moment i'm working from the living room got my happy corner but i'm not happy and the neighbours aren't either :)))
Just found your channel today and you just gained another subscriber. Awesome content and awesome products. Love this shop build too. I have dreams of building my dream shop but this opened my eyes to another possibility. Make on 👍🏻
Looks amazing, live the dream. I have a little concern that your new workshop is in an old flood river bed? I hope I'm wrong. Not a critism just a concern friend. Loving
If you ever do insulation work cover your exposed skin in baby powder. Sounds stupid but it works. I do commercial insulation work with the carpenters union. Cold showers also work wonders
First of all, your shed looks great! Being in Singapore has its downside as I will never ever be able to do this without a fortune. As well, may i ask what kind of cloth do you use to apply stuff like canauba cream, acrylic resolene and mink oil? Those are what I use and I realised resolene are not suppose to be massaged in but just simply applied. The other are applied using lint free cloth? Thank you!
I know this video isn't recent, but today I've been given the opportunity to build a new leather workshop. Your videos and Insta feed continue to give me inspiration and fire up my enthusiasm for better things. Cheers! (Wallisknives on Insta)
Depending on where you live, you may have too much humidity, Like We do in Florida. We use cigar humidor hygrometers(?) In our raw leather storage areas (file cabinets and closets). Use desicant buckets and seperate large pieces to allow air flow and that should help.
Old Hickory Buildings, wow, you used the guys in my old stomping grounds.
I'm number 700. You got a good heart and family....... I wish you well,

I'm new to this and have only done a few things, but you are a great inspiration to us newbies. Love the shop, hope AC is in the works.
Thanks Mark!
That;s GREAT for you & your family. Keep it up. Can't beat working for yourself.
This is the dream everyone dreams of only you could make it happen that way you may be close to what matters most family. 👍👍
Brag man, brag. You got it all!
UNCLEDOUG HERE YOU ROCK !! YOU AND YOUR FAMILY WILL DO WELL !! GOD BLESS!
I have to say, your enthusiasm and honest is inspiring, even for some of us old dogs! Your changing peoples lives man.
Nice place Parker! However, you have to watch out because your kids might get too close to the river. A fence or something could help prevent them from getting there
Wow this is the best leather shop I’ve seen, loving the wood.

I love the new space, you can't help but get creative in a shop like that.
Looks fantastic Parker I wish you all a very happy and productive time there...I admit I am a bit envious of your space! Congrats from Harry UK
Haha thank you Harry! Means a lot coming from a master;)
Harry, If you had all that space, you would have filled it by now ;-)

Kitty litter works well too provided you don't have a cat
You need to step up your game mah boi, you only have one single bag available in your store, and that is NOT good
They ahve shown more designs in the past. He said this was his first one without a flap.
Looks great
