You literally think outside the box! The way your mind uses whatever tool it needs, is like little "ah-ha" moments! I'd bet anything some leather crafters are asking themselves "Why didn't I think of that!" I think working with various materials across multiple vocations, frees the mind from conventional thinking, allowing you to use whatever tools help get the task at hand completed! I really enjoyed this one!
I think he put a whole lotta though inside this box, too. I ready like those veg tan braces and strapping against the darker leather. Maybe you need to patent a 'leather' dado blade.
@@AnnoyedJots We actually already have a specialized tool for cutting a v groove in leather to an exact depth. And it is cheap and easy to use. Similar to a hand plane but has a V gouge in the center.
Wahoo ! Beautiful leather wine box. I'm leather worker in France, I watch every videos you post about leather but this one is one of the best you do. Amazing ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
How fabulously timeless: As charming, practical & delightful now as it would have been for celebrating the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Thank you for sharing!
I was dissappointed when I saw you splitting the leather strip with the weaver machine. You should send it through the planer! 😂 I love every video you make Jimmy. I think the most important lesson you teach every time is your workflow! Thank you for teaching me for the last 9 years! ❤❤
Antique Roadshow on a spaceship.....😂 Got a visual....busted out laughing! Carrier is GORGEOUS!!! Lucky guy who's getting it! You make it look so easy!
1/21/24..hey Jommy, that is a beautiful 1/4"thick 'Rose' colored leather (6pk) wine carry box. Love the video format of FF & voice over. Very professional presentation..aa always! Stay safe & warm...& carry on!🍷😊
Jimmy!!!! I've been following you for years and have learned so much from you, I started with leather working a few years ago and is now becoming my main source of income. I absolutly can't understand the Head Knife. It goes against everything I know about using knives!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I firmly belive that most people that use them only do it because it is trendy. Some might disagree and try to argue but I won't belive them 😅
Life hack, for (winter) dry hands I take half a box of gelatin (Jell-O brand usually) and mix it well into a cup of warm water and drink it down. Wait 2-3 days if you don't notice some relief do the other half box. I rarely have to do the second half. The collagen works it's way through your body and heals from within. Appreciate yours content.
Jimmy, having been a leather worker for over 30 years, all leather bends easier when you case it (get it wet/damp). take a look at wet forming leather, it makes creating custom holders / shapes a lot easier. there is also a tool for cutting straping, you just need a straight edge to start with. hmmm I may have to break out my track saw to create a straight edge in the future...
This doesn't happen the first time unless you have a lot of prior learning under Murphy's tutelage. going to school on the prototype allows the creative "Diresta" to express a concept. Nicely done sir!
Great job!! I liked your philosophy, on your leather work, down the line, in the future... making items that are ,Heirloom quality, is only way to go..
Cool and unusual box, Jimmy! If I happen to see it in a thrift shop in 90 years, I will definitely buy it! Love seeing the leather work. It's something I have never tried but have an interest in.
Amazing piece; your leather projects are really interesting stuff whether they get the views or not. That embossing machine for the branding is really slick.
So functional and beautiful! Awesome marriage of craft techniques. I loved seeing a festool track saw used to make straps 😂 Also- Leather weight is translatable to inches! 1 ounce is equal to 1/64”. So that 15 ounce weight is just about 1/4” :)
Another new product for the DiResta Shop! This would be a great utility carry-all. Maybe snaps for the internal partitions to allow personal customization. Great box, Jimmy!
I a huge fan of leather and enjoyed this video immensely. A very handsome carry case and love the two colours my favourite for leather. I’ve subscribed as hope to see more of your projects on RUclips. Good explanations. Great stuff, loved it.❤
Great looking carrying case. Always enjoy seeing new techniques used in your videos. Can always use some outside the box thinking, even when making a box. Thanks for sharing!
Looks awesome. You could take a clue from leather instrument bags, like a saxophone gig bag, that uses a sleeve that snaps around the top of the carry straps to keep them together and for carrying comfort.
I tried and tried and tried to use a box cutter for leather, for years. then when I got a head knife it was a 100% amazing game changer for me. I understand they aren't for everyone, but I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss them as something people use just because they think they're supposed to or they're just traditional. they're an amazing knife that can work well if you give them a chance and take the time to learn how to use and sharpen then correctly.
I do hours of hand stitching with leather, and I use the rubber gloves exclusively. They save my hands and give excellent grip while maintain dexterity.
Maravilloso trabajo de bellísima artesanía, donde se combinan exquisitos materiales con gran maestría e inteligencia. Le transmito mi más sincera felicitación. Greetings from Barcelona, Spain.
You are incredible! Wood, leather, metal etc... just mind blowing at times. I am so impressed by your work. I listen to the Make It podcast and marvel at how much you know about so many things. Thanks!
I only use Barge contact cement. I have tried so many, but I have the exact opposite problem as you. I find it to be the most manageable. Which I hate because the smell is horrible. But I do agree the leather working world is filled with a biased towards doing things the old way and only that way. But in my opinion the Barge contact cement is wayyyyyyy to good not too use. But my next favorite is Renia Aquilm. It is a waster based glue and is similar to PVA. Beautiful piece! And in my opinion the head knife is a great knife for its time. You cannot afford to buy 5 different blades to cut leather in 1800. 1 blade that can do all the very specific tasks needed to make a saddle. Not the best blade for any step but one that will work for every step. But today I feel it is mainly for decoration.
Excelente proyecto muy bien desarrollado y mejor ejecutado maestro,un botellero muyyyy original y peculiar, como todo lo que usted hace, gracias por compartir sus conocimientos y experiencias, un saludo cordial y por supuesto un merecido like desde Narón (Galicia)👍🤓😜
Whenever you are about to use a rivet, you should pause and work backwards to a different method. Lining the insides would be next level too. Fun watching you improve.
90 year... on a spaceship! Awesome!!! LOL or it'll end up in the Diresta museum. Cool idea and cool project!!
Your ingenuity is par none to most makers. Your leather skills are awesome. I am hoping we can see more leather creations by you.

Aware and a proud owner of a few. They just aren't as fast, loud, and dangerous as a table saw blade
👍👍👍
Wahoo ! Beautiful leather wine box.
I'm leather worker in France, I watch every videos you post about leather but this one is one of the best you do.
Amazing ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love it. It looks like a present 🎁
I like that wine carrier.
smiles, great thought about Antiques Roadshow in the future....
Excellent job on the dividers!
I love the mentality of "if it works, it ain't stupid"
How fabulously timeless: As charming, practical & delightful now as it would have been for celebrating the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Thank you for sharing!
It even looks like a wrapped present!
I appreciate all the nails in the wooden base. It seems like a strong connection.
I remember the old tool tips videos when Jimmy used to say "don't use the tools like I do"... Hell yeah I would, what a genius

I’ve been planning a front bag for my Brompton bike. This certainly gives some food for thought.

Hahah finally some one beside me knows the truth 😂😂😂🙏🏼
Wow what an artist and craftsmen you are sir always so inspiring and amazed watching what you do Thanks for always sharing your ideas.
Absolutely amazing project
Great job Jimmy!! I never thought about using wood tools for leather working!! I’ll be making a couple of these for presents !! Thank you!!
Nicely done Jimmy. Now you can get drunk with even MORE class!! Thank you for sharing.
Jimmy is sober, but as someone who enjoys his wine, I agree with you!
No he filled it with cheap wine. that's WORKING CLASS :)
Just saw you on this old house making a leather bag. Fantastic

3:18 HEY, I recognized Wesleys push stick design, Great on you Jimmy, supporting your fellow creators and makers.

I love watching you work leather, it inspires me to give it a try.
Its absolutely gorgeous
My childhood Scout Master would love something like this, he liked to drink whiskey during our camping trips
I really enjoy your leather videos. Thanks, Jimmy! 👍👍👍
Sir, you are an amazing builder. designer, engineer. I'm always intrigued watching your videos with the care you take to detail. Bravo!!
I missed the 2 million roll over! Congrats! Love what you’re doing with all these leather projects. This one is thicccc
Seen this on Instagram, had to come over here and see it. Amazing job!!
Great job!! I liked your philosophy, on your leather work, down the line, in the future... making items that are ,Heirloom quality, is only way to go..
Cool and unusual box, Jimmy! If I happen to see it in a thrift shop in 90 years, I will definitely buy it! Love seeing the leather work. It's something I have never tried but have an interest in.
I dig this. I learned some things. And I wish more of my own real-time design experiments turned out this polished.
Lovely project. Anyone would be proud of those results.
You make such awesome things ⭐
Gorgeous!! “Classic Jimmy” 😊
Amazing piece; your leather projects are really interesting stuff whether they get the views or not. That embossing machine for the branding is really slick.
Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship! I love the idea of that for a gift. I love to watch you work with leather. Thanks for sharing your talents
The leather work I find very cool. I’ve got metal and wood projects for days, but hopefully I’ll find some time too dive into this.
Great work👍👍👍
So functional and beautiful! Awesome marriage of craft techniques. I loved seeing a festool track saw used to make straps 😂 Also- Leather weight is translatable to inches! 1 ounce is equal to 1/64”. So that 15 ounce weight is just about 1/4” :)
As usual, awesome & beautiful work on that carrier Jimmy! Whoever is getting that is very lucky indeed! 👍👍👏👏🔨🔨
“If it works, it ain’t stupid.”
True statement, sir.
You are so creative.
Looks Good Jimmy.

Interesting to see the package design knowledge applied to a beautiful piece of leather work. New Patreon content is really appreciated.
Hi Jimmy. I like this 90 years idea. I guess the little nailheads on the bottom will be missed.
Greetings from Vienna, Christoph
Awesome as usual, your making repertoire is amazing, and inspiring 🙏

This tote is gorgeous Jimmy! Thank you for showing how you make such beautiful items!
I like steel weights too. I really like the 3,4,5 blocks

Beautiful work, I love the stich pattern and the contrast between the handle and the body.
That looks beautiful!! Nicely done jimmy 👊🏽
Great video, amazed how fast you edited it. Case is beautiful. Mahalo for sharing!
Jimmy, you are inspiration man.
Absolutely OUTSTANDING!!! You are so freaking good! Thank you!!

Very very nice Jimmy! Nice build! ☺
