@@MasconLeather I live in Hertford, NC just a little south of you. I retired a year ago and while blacksmithing has been my passion for the last 12 years, I have started working with leather. Good inside hobby on nasty days. Thanks for your time, talent, and inspiration.
Thanks for that !
These always put me in the mood to make something; great work again!
What a great comment!!
Thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching!
Another in the long line of great videos. Well done sir !
Thank you, Fred!
i think i’ve watched a dozen or more of you’re videos in an effort to maybe try something new as i approach retirement, i have to say your work is flawless, fantastic creativity, and the video quality is unreal, thanks for all your work!
superb
Thanks!!
Ahhhhhhhh yes, once again my weekend has started out on a high note! I as usual picked up a few things, chuckled, and ogled. I was very happy to see ( Im actually lying here, Im frickin pissed!!) that the bump jigs were on backorder already, that certainly says alot. I finally sat at the adult table and ordered some Horween Dublin, it arrived yesterday, and I now can honestly say “ I get it”. There will be no going back. Now if my friggin jigs would get here lol........ Great vid man!
Thanks for watching!!! And the jigs will change the way you work, and help become more efficient. Takes practice but soon it’ll be second nature.
I have not yet worked with Horween Dublin. Been working through 5 hides I got from Acadia, which I rather like, though they are chrome re-tan hides they are lovely.
Dublin is certainly on my list as well.
I am with you @Glen Piro about the jigs too! I waited 2 days to order mine, and I knew I shouldn't have. Oh well! Looking forward to them arriving too!
Acadia has some great leather! I love it !
@Ironforge, I shoulda pulled the trigger right away, I think they sold out within hours lol! I will peruse Acadia, but if its anything like the Horween, forget it. Night and day difference, I still am dumbfounded at how amazing the stuff is!
Gracias
Thanks !
A flower painted a flower
Shell - I spotted the bread crumb on the edging in the video. Great job.
🤘
I love your video style! Makes me want to make videos of my leather working!
Thanks, Thomas!
kraken rum very nice as well as sailor jerrys
Agreed !
Nice!!! Keep up the great work!👍👍
Thanks, Alexander!
Fantastic brother....
Good stuff as always...
Thanks! And thanks for watching!
@@MasconLeather thank you
Love your style
Thanks! I appreciate that!
The magic chest. It holds any and everything you could ever possibly need for anything. I need a key to it
🤘🤘
One more observation, there's a bra in the chest instead of a chest in the bra
Right ?!?! 😆
Nice, I have a whole box load of “D” shackle thingys!
Looks like I’m now gonna knock a couple of these up!
Cool!
Perfect!
Thanks for sharing another cool video and your wife's artwork!! I hope Mascon/Zee Bee will consider making that cool centering compass!
Thanks, sir!
Regarding the centering compass.... we’ve discussed it. But it’s not 100% yet and we’re not willing to offer anything until we are 100% confident
Bonjour, toujours du travail excellent Très belle finitions quel artistes même madame a un Jolie coups de pinceau Très très beaux tableau toujours l'envie de vous regardez continuer à nous emerveillez! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
(Google translate- Hello, always excellent work Very beautiful finishes which artists even madame has a Pretty brushstrokes Very very beautiful table always the envy of you look continue to amaze us!)
Thank you so much, Patrick!! And thanks for watching!!
I've watched your videos for awhile and i have to say you have some of the most entertaining build videos around. You might be as good of a videogropher as leather worker. Great job man keep up the great stuff. Also I'm guessing your videos take longer to film than the project most times lol.
Thanks!!! Yeah…, a 3 hour wallet takes 4 - 5 DAYS (50+ HOURS) to film and edit. And all the while, make it “appear” as all instant. It’s days and days. (200 - 300 + video clips per 10 minutes of finished video)
Thanks for watching!
RELEASE THE KRAKEN!!! Yes out all that fine work and the painting I noticed the bottle of rum. One of us has a problem. You have great taste in Rum and your videos are great too. Sla'inte!
Sometimes, the Kraken is a priority!
I appreciate you watching!
Pure Awesomeness!
Loved the video, loved the piece, Loved Lilly's sunflower!
But I have to warn you... Should I ever find myself in Your neck of the woods, I'm going to make myself a nuisance at least long enough to get a quick tour of your awesome studio!
Thanks, Duane!!
Отличное видео!!! Настоящий мастер!
Thank you for tuning in and watching!
buen video y excelente trabajo
Thank you for that and for watching!
Pero que genio! Cómo me divierten tus videos. Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷😎👍
Thanks! And thanks for watching!
@@MasconLeather de nada,me olvidaba,viendo tus vídeos me tomo un whiscola
Perfect!!
👍🏻
ps what a needlewoman she draws!
what?
Sehr Schön 👍
Hi 👋
Обожаю подачу видео на канале...всегда за это лайк......да и сами видео всегда мотивируют...супер..
(Google translate- “I love the video feed on the channel ... always like it ...... and the videos themselves always motivate ... super ..”)
Thank you! And I appreciate you watching!
I know this is an older video and I can assure you I've seen them all but I want to know. What makes it a bourbon day and what makes it a rum day! Because of you I've tried both and both are great in coffee. So just curious.
😆 that’s a great question!! I suppose it usually comes down to availability. What’s nearest when I start? Or a pretty bottle? No rhyme or reason.
Lily is far smarter! She's a lefty too! :D
Absolutely!
Show!!! Parabéns pelo os belos vídeos
🤘
Thanks for watching!
Very good , hello from Russia)
Thank you!!
Good morning . Just was wondering if or would you show how you come up with patterns ? Like measuring and how you decide where and maybe why you put rivets. Oh and maybe not so fast , old timer here ! LoL But for real ! Ok thanks and always thanks for sharing your awesome talent ! Well its awesome to me !
Hey! It’s usually all done by eye. Depending on space available vs size of particular rivet being used.
very nice !
Thank you, David !
And thanks for watching!
@@MasconLeather Thank you for your video, your work, your smile (yes we know you smile all along your film ^^), your fun ;) (i'll stop saying that all my comments you know i'm happy now !) I've done my first wallet yesterday to replace my 13-15 years old dying wallet, and you inspired me little ;)
That’s perfect!
Watch next --> ruclips.net/video/6lx3ntlES6c/видео.html
As always brilliant work.
Don't tell Chloe she isn't the prettiest thing in the shop! She might demand more play time!
Thanks! Chloe knows she’s the boss, queen, and the prettiest
I love the luggage chest, that is either a great prop.....or you gotta stop drinking your special coffee!
😆
Great video. Pozdrowienia z Polski 👋
Thanks!!
And thank you for watching!
I am new to leatherworking and I think your videos are fantastic! I love looking for all of the easter eggs! I was wondering when you stamp your logo, do you case the leather first? Or is Horween leather soft enough for stamping without casing? Thank you for sharing your amazing work!
Thanks for watching! And I’m glad you enjoy them! Yes, most Horween leathers allow me to stamp without casing.
Mascon Leather Thank you for the quick response. As a beginner I find it interesting you dint have to case Horween. All of the books and videos I've seen about tooling leather say you need to case it or the stamps won't last long. I am definitely going to get some Horween once my skills improve. Really need to make one of those collars!
Got a sneaking suspicion we have a closet cross dresser that makes excellent leather stuff. Do you have the calves for those black high heels? 🤣👍 I also have a trunk with special stuff locked in it. 😜
lol!! Yep, I laughed!
I wanna know where that cup comes from !!!!!!!
That don’t give me the answers 😂
It's been driving me crazy, where did you find that center finding divider tool. I've googled every combination of words and images to find one. I've asked tool makers and they like the tool but can't put a name on it. Love your work. Jake
Centering calipers. I had them custom made by a machinist. 👍
Did you ever get your picture? I only noticed the two bras and the heels. Great video.
Thanks for watching!!
What's the spacing on your punches?
I use 3mm, 4, 5, 5.4 and 6. Depending on the project. This time it’s 5.0 mm
Aaaaasas ! Петля в сундуке👍👍👍👍 😂😂😂!!
Thanks!
Where did you get them leather slippers from? You make them or have a link?
They’re “Old Friend” brand. I grab them off eBay any time I see my size used. They don’t come up often.
Great video as always! Just finished a new bag for the backrest on my bike. Took some design tips from you. I’ve looked around but could you tell me where a good place is to buy Horween . Thanks
Thanks!! Tannery row
Mascon Leather Thanks a lot I’ve looked all around but most places just has pieces. I see you wear outer banks tees I live in Hickory. NC
Don Payne we vacation in obx a couple times A year (live In wmbg, va)
Artie Shell yeah grew up on the outskirts of Yorktown,Va went to Wmbg. When I was younger. Still go to Rodanthe fishing a few times a year. My Dad had a house down there for years . It was a different place back in the 70s and 80s
Very inspiring. How do you finish your edges? I see bevel sand...slick...canvas. Are you adding and edge color? Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the kind words!!!
If you look at 6:40 it looks like hes adding some color. A lot of makers make their own edge concoction theres no wrong way just try some things and see what works to your liking. I add some dark brown fiebings die to mine
Could you let me know where I can get or what make those centring callipers/dividers are. I can’t find any on the tin-terweb.
I had them custom made by a machinist. So they’re not “available “ yet.
Please, Please, Please tell me what that device you used at 2:32 is. A centering thing-a-ma-jig? Have no idea what that is called but I want one. Been looking for most of my adult life. What is it? Where can I get one? Please? Oh yeah, terrific video. Apparently, Lilly is a lefty. Yay!
They’re custom made centering calipers. I had them made by a machinist. And, yes, Lilly is a southpaw. 😆
@@MasconLeather I think you have a side business here. I have been looking for something like this all of my adult career. So many applications.
Very informative vids. What is the size of the bevel tool you're using in this one?
Thanks! Edge bevelers? I usually use two sizes. 00 and 01 (Barry king brand )
You kids ever hear of a YTer named Bernadette Banner? If you ever want to collaborate on some historic leather craft projects they'ed be the people to talk to.
- Cathy (&, accidently, Steve), Ottawa/Bytown/Pimisi
I don’t time to collaborate with myself…. Much less anyone else. 😆
@@MasconLeather I feel you on that one.
Kay. How's about this. Make Cos Tube and people like Bernadette Banner, Kathy Hay, Morgan Donner, Costuming Drama, Constance MacKenzie, et cetera into your break homework assignment.
Banner's got her million subscriber button. And she got it by being the unofficial / official spokes human for Cos Tube. Wherein a bunch of deep-dive-inducing sewing nerds try to make the things the great-great-great-(etc) Grannies made better without power, Amazon or Etsy.
Yalll ever need a break from filming (ha-ha) it's a nice way to dissapear into the algorithm for a while. Take notes. Banner got there through the power of the community that was already growing _Just_ before the first lockdowns hit. Then we had no where to go but to talk to each other over the interwebs. The rest of the work was up to the algorithm to do its little math-y thing.
You'll both get there. Worry not. You've got great content.
{just go easy on the whisky, yes, tippling is fun but AA is effing hard. Kay? Kay. Goood talk}
See you kids around the interwebs.
If someone contacts me, I may consider something
@@MasconLeather Oooh, ooh-ooh. And Jimmy from the Welsh Viking. You wanna talk leathercraft from extant/existing samples sitting in museum drawers? He's your man. Dude's a Welsh PhD student working on his dissertation and started doing the tube of you'z as a lark before shutdown hit. Now gets by with the help of Patreon and Kof-ie... speaking of things you two REALLY need to research.
From The Mind of Christine McConnel was able to buy a Gilded Age Mansion on the east coast to renovate just on the power of Patreon alone.... it seems to be the deal maker for content providers. Suggested and recommended interaction that people really seem to enjoy - a 2-3 hour live-stream you can only access through Patreon teers. Once a month. Minimum amount of time to take you away from the content that's keeping them sane(?) right now.
Kay. Now I nap. Insomnia can kiss my hine-y. Good talk.
Cheers.
I'll be here all weeek. Try the veel...
If jimmy contacts me, we can talk. I tried 2 years ago to contact a few select YT folks. Radio silence.
So I’m done.
I have a bachelors, and masters degree. Grad work at Harvard university. Bs in marketing. Was in banking for 20 years. Built my own house while working banking full time (took me 5 years).
I now have an 20 MONTH lead time for orders on my books.
I’m not seeking anyone’s “help”.
I’m cruising and happy. But I’ll do a collaboration for sport and well being with a select few. My selection. 🤘

There was a keychain in the thumbnail? Didn't see it.😂😂
Hi, could you please tell me where to get and how it is called - the divider/caliper which is finding the center of a strip?
Thank you!
Centering calipers. I had them custom made by a machinist
Pick up a centering ruler at a craft store. A lot cheaper than having one made.
Jerry Fox absolutely! (I’m Mascon leather). I have 7-8 centering rulers. Use them daily. Calipers are used in special circumstances
@@artieshell9205 - dear Artie, thank you for your reply. This is just did - as I could not find any centering calipers. I ordered an INCRA made one.
Thanks again.
@@jerryfox3805 thank you for the good idea to use a centering ruler. As I had no other choice, I ordered an INCRA centering rule from US.
Thanks again!
What kind of stitching chisel do you use
Mine were made by Kevin lee
Just found this video. No offense but Chloe's gonna be a tough act to follow. I've got three cow dogs and they're all smarter than me. It's Thanksgiving day and again you amaze this old man in how you edit your videos. Awesome flower by the way. Where do ya get your slippers? Stay healthy and safe and blessings on you and yours. My heeler has a Jack Russell for a friend. Pet Chloe and tell your wife nice job on the flower. As ever just Tom 🤠
Thank you for that!!! Slippers are “old friend” brand. And yes, Chloe is smarter than me. No question
I totally love your style with your videos. The editing, sexy wife, humor, style, rum, and skill are all a win! Keep the videos coming! I didn't see it listed in the description, what type of chisels are you using?
Thanks!! Chisels made by Kevin lee
Unique compas huh...
Yes.
What program do you use to edit your videos?
