Excellent presentation. The narrator has a very calm, soothing voice. I wish he had more instructional videos. I'd watch them all. Great product. I just ordered mine.
Wow...I’m just amazed at how ingenious and easy to use this tool is!!
I just found an Awl in my late father’s toolbox, and wanted to know what it did and how to use it...having never used one myself.
After seeing this video, I remember Dad repairing sails with it on our sailboat.
Thanks for the great tutorial...and the nice memories!
I just found an awl in my tools! I installed shade cloth around my Whole back yard and need to finish the corners with this video helping me out Thanks to ALL!!!
THANK YOU! Bought this last year, never got down to getting the patches onto my leather jacket. Going to do it now!
⭐️ very clear and concise - the best demo and explanation I have come across ⭐️ thankyou 👍
This video allowed me to successfully repair a panier strap. Thank you 🙏
My dad used his for many projects. I have it, and forgot how to use it, and this video is so good, teaches well
Good video. I got this stitching awl with the kit I bought but I had no idea what it was nor how to use it. So I looked on You Tube and sure enough, Tandy had a video showing just what I needed. Thank you. Best regards, Richard…
Thank you for this guide gentleman
Thanks, just bought one but wasn't sure how to use it. 👍
Es fabuloso su trabajo...Felicidades.
My wife and I married in 1981, we have that same design on our wedding bands as you have on your finger!
Thank you sir🤓 was looking for this,got the....thing,but no name on it🕵️ so now i can repair whats needed to🥳
I wish you would show or explain the thread “down through the chuck”. I have no idea how to do that
Saddle stitching is faster, unless the holes are tight.
Can you do a wrap stitch when sewing moccasins
It's been a while since anyone communicated on this site. But, I have a Speedy Stitcher Sewing Awl like the one shown here that does not have hole where the thread is suppose to thread through to the needle. Does that mean it's defective?
How do I remove a broken needle from the awl?
The opposite end of the screwdriver tool to remove the bolt is for tightening the needle in place. He didn't mention that but seems that must be done to keep the needle in place but wouldn't that also lock the thread in place?
The thread fits into the groove in the needle, so as long as the thread is properly aligned, it won't get bound.
No need a final node at the end ?
I find it easier to thread a blunt needle to the end of the thread you are feeding through the loop. I'm not so dextrous.
even sewing with both hands is faster and better looking quality.
Why the final result of the test is not shown? Probably that stitching quality is not good enough o make a wallet by hand stitching with this stuff!!! Hhhhhhh...
👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌👌👌👌
I'm really sure you can build it yourself. I did this 2 weeks ago thanks to the Woodglut plans.
I would tie a darning needle to the other end

holy annoying voice over
I bought one of these for my hammock camping stuff but wasn't sure how to use it and thanks to a few of these videos I know more or less what to use it for and even a few other things. Thanks guys.
I do have to say thank you for showing how to end the stich because so many videos do not show it. I'm trying to fix my horse pad that is falling apart and I was worried that I was going to mess up on how to end the stich
well done Tandys. covers everything
Great video Now I know just how to use an Awl. Thank you.
Well done, Thanks. It had been a long time since I used it and this refreshed my memory.
Thank you for this. Very nice job!
Super demo with the best way to end the stitches.
as stated in the video, just go backwards a few stitches.
I thank-you for the great sewing tips.
I've ordered this kit. I'm still waiting. I can't wait to use it. It interesting thing.
Thanks for the demo, was wondering how an awl worked.
The best to learn thanks tandy
Well looks like I will be heading to Tandy's tomorrow. My better half has promised me an elite membership if I can make a hip bag. Game on!
+Raistlynn S We look forward to seeing you!
I have one but couldn't figure it out no instructions now I understand but you make it look simple come and do my project
I have a Speedy-Stitcher, as well as the Tandy Stitching Awl. I prefer the Tandy because it is more instinctive to use. The exposed bobbin lets the user brake the tension with the index finger, rather than rely on a twist around the pin on the Speedy-Stitcher version. I've found that, with certain weights of thread, the pin "jams" the thread and I need to manually pull out the thread I need I order to keep going. The Tandy awl has a free flowing bobbin and can be reeled back if the tension gets a bit loose and you end up with too much thread between the tip and your work. Just a better design. I do a lot of sail mending, holster and sheath making, so I need continuity with no problems. Never had one with the Tandy.
OutnBacker , thank you for the information. I have been trying to decide between the Speedy Stitcher and The Tandy . After reading your comment, I have decided to go with The Tandy .
Best
Regards
@@thaddeauscaldwell7101 I think you'll like it. Neither version is "speedy" but you won't be stopping as much with the Tandy. I especially like it because the bobbin, being exposed, can be checked for how much is left. And, it works like a fishing reel with no drag around that pesky pin.
Thank you master
Good video. Just a note if you put a needle onto the tag end it is easier to get the thread into the loop easier.
Excellent outil
Thanks 🙏
Thanks for much)
i believe this is a faster way for sewing, I used to sew shoes in this way
I have not started doing leather work yet. I've just seen videos, but it seems the double needle saddle stich would do just as well maybe faster. This is just my opinion of observation. I am not opposed to trying both technique.
I am looking to buy an awl. I need to get mail order to have no option to try before i buy. Can you explain how your version compares against a speedy stitcher?
Thankyou.
Just what i need, im buying a kit
Thanks for making this video! I always wondered how these things work...now I know.
Kids these days should learn how to do stuff like this instead of playing video games...
I have one works really good satisfaction guaranteed plus made in USA 🇺🇸👍🏻❤️
im new to leatherwork. is there any reason i couldnt put a needle on the end of thread in YOUR LEFT hand? or in what circumstance COULDN'T I? I use reading glasses.. but dont ALWAYS need them, (OR want them!) For things at distances like this its here or there. A needle instead of glasses to get thread in that hole is how im looking at it. Thank U for the tutorial. The waxy thread in mine when i found it was very thick preventing it from working right. (well i was practicing with a thick plastic/rubber material too.
What kind of clamp or vice is that your using to hold the leather? I enjoyed the video and am almost ready to learn how to work with leather. Thanks.
OK. Now I got this awl. It's works pretty good. I'm happy with it. But where can I get another needle if I will break it sometime ? I hope it never happen. Is this kind of needle used in a sewing machine ? It looks similar.
Hello pavolpi! On the Sewing Awl Kit page, you will find replacement needles and Awl Reels under "Customer who purchased this, also purchased".

Hope this helps!
What would you suggest to make the holes that you're driving the awl through?
I picked up a blue handled ice pick looking puck at harbor freight tools . It is stainless with a blue wooden handle . You won't need for some materials . Although I tried it on some 1/8th in leather and it woks great . Although one should be carefull on how far you push it through . Which is all relevant to how big yuou need the hole . If one needs a smaller thread hole then only push through a lettle and then go to the other side and do the same . Or there is also hole puch hand held machines with different so
Hello.
I like the clamp that you are using to hold the leather. Is that available for sale? Where can I purchase it? thanks.
+time2rejoice We do not sell that specific one, however you can find similar Stitching Horses available at www.tandyleather.com/en/search/?sSearch=pony
Put a needle on tag end makes it easier to sew and faster
I'm assuming a blunt needle to help pass through the lock stitch loop.
top!!!!!!
what is the wooden device holding your project called? is that home made or can i buy it from some where?
stitching pony. They sell them or you can make one yourself, it's not difficult with a bit of woodworking know how.
theiceman1972 - i was wondering if I attached a piece of wood covered in leather to my vice if that couldnt be used also
can I just this to sew on patches to a leather vest?
+wmosley919 The Sewing Awl Kit would work, however you may also consider hand stitching the leather, as demonstrated in this video: ruclips.net/video/8cZlpE5F48g/видео.html
do you make the hole before hand
The tool is made to punch through leather. Some people prefer to make a guide hole first. Either way is fine.
the needle keeps being pulled loose from the handle how can i fix this?
Sounds like you may need to tighten the tool a bit more with the enclosed wrench. Eventually it may pull loose, however that should hold for a good while if tightened pretty tightly.
How long of 1mm thread will the bobbin hold?
+tyomen Somehow we missed this question! The bobbins hold 12.5 yards. www.tandyleather.com/en/product/sewing-awl-thread-reels
+Tandy Leather lol Thanks!
I guess that means nothing to me what is a yard@@TandyLeatherCo
1 yard roughly equals 1 meter, w/ the yard being 3 inches shorter than a meter (36 in vs 39 in), if that's what you're trying to ask). So, for every 4th meter, there's a difference of abt a foot (3 inches shorter times 4). If that makes sense to you.
so what am I doing wrong tried the stiching process but it has locked up on me twice after initial start can only push needle in half way. does it make a difference onwitch side of the needle you make the loop to make the stitch
Yes if you make the loop on the wrong side it will form a knot. Make sure you put it through the side that doesn't have the groove in the needle
I put the needle on the free half of the thread that runs on the backside, makes pulling trough the loops easier.
secure no way i know poly thread is strong but just one break means the whole thing falls apart
excellent!!!!! Just enough simple info for me to blast off my own little bullet bag. All the sweeter because I made it from the hide of a deer I shot. Gives me a trophy from a deer that was not a wall hanger. Now what am I going to do with the twenty hides I have left.
Why not thread the loose end through a second, ordinary sewing needle?
Wouldn't that make it a lot easier to thread it through the loop formed by the sewing awl?
+Bevin Chu The Sewing Awl Kit makes it much easier to push through the leather for faster sewing. If you are interested in a two needle approach, you might find saddle stitching a preferred method of sewing: ruclips.net/video/qi3BRWO7kuo/видео.html
+Tandy Leather I probably failed to make myself clear.
What I meant was to use an ordinary needle for the LOOSE END of the thread, to help push it though the loop on the backside.
I'm referring to the move at 2:12.
One would still use the sewing awl as pictured in the video.
What do you think?
that price of this product
Can the awl punch the holes or does it need to be pre-perforated?
The sewing awl can make holes in the leather.
Put a needle on the one end of the thread and it will be easier to guide it through the loop.
wo erhältlich ?
I dont think is easier or faster than a normal needle . Exept for long time working .
that isn't for me
