Making 3 Types of Leather Keychain // DIY to PRO
In this video we show you how to make leather keychains in three different levels of detail. We do a quick 10 minute version, a more designed and fashionable half hour version, and a fully lined, stitched, and finished pro version in an hour. They all do the same thing - so why spend more time than you need to? well that could be for many reasons! You could just love leathercraft, you could be making a more luxurious product offering, you don't need a reason for any of these three versions :) Just have fun working with leather, that's the goal.

Thank you for making such a comprehensive leather craft video. The creasing, grooving, and burnishing is so helpful to watch. It shows the value and gives a real sense of steps taken to make professional leather goods. That chisel tool that you used to do the skiving looks pretty sharp. THANK YOU!!
I think you should make this a regular series on your channel. As a woodworker I’m very familiar with John Malecki’s series. I don’t do leatherwork but I love watching your videos and this type of video makes me think that I could actually do it!
Love your videos. I'm grateful, as always, for your commitment to the community. Thank you.
I really enjoy this kind of video. If you enjoyed it and think you'll enjoy doing more, please do more of these. They're super fun to see. I'd especially love to see one on something like a small coin bag, or a bracelet, or other common accessories, but frankly anything you think you'd enjoy making would be fun to see. .
Bro, love watching your videos, they have seriously inspired me. I only started crafting just before Christmas and I've learned so much. Thank you for your time. And thank your wife for her great videography skills
I really like the multiple difficulty crafting videos. And this was no exception. Some great tips. Though I personally think that it would be better that instead of having a timer, use a stopwatch. Then you can do it without rushing and show how long an unstressed project would take.
Completely agree. Not a fan of the artificial time limits. Big fan of the 3 levels of difficulty
Better not use a watch, do it for clear mind, no stress.
@@MrBorges53 I meant for the purpose of making the video. Craft at a normal speed with a stop watch out of sight. And then pull up the watch when done to show how long it took at a casual pace. Or if recording the whole process, it could be edited in in post.
Hey I'm just starting making leather goods for myself. Your videos and patterns are where I started it all, so informative and really enjoyable.
we liked all three ,great craftmanship
Youre a great leather crafter ! Takes a lot of skill to make it look that easy. Great video!
It is fun to watch John and his guys do the different difficulty levels. This was a great way to show it for leatherworking. Please do more of these.
This was great, I would like to see more videos like these.
If it amounts to anything, as someone who has watched you for years, your free-hand skiving improved a ton!
Nice Seiko Turtle. The lesson is as always very well done.
Good content as always, i like how they still teach useful stuff unlike others who now concentrate more on cinematic videos.
Thanks for a small quick project
I like these videos. That would be cool if you did more of these. John would be proud of your video.
As always great craft
love the last one classy
Everytime I see that brass x-acto blade handle I wonder WHEN!? Also fun video and I like the concept of building three versions. Was fun watching the panic/rush....
Very informative video and fun projects to try. Again a great inspiration!
Maybe an idea for a new video: how to line a woman’s or men bag with lining - fabric or pigskin. What are the challenges, how to work the edges etc.
Keep up the good work. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱
It's cool seeing you use a creaser! I just got one and am trying to figure it out. Have you ever tried heating it up too?
Don’t like the time constraint part but love the multiple options
Of course you can speed run a 4 minute fob with the snap setter!
Looking for the stiffener used in the third version. What’s it called?
Great demo! I really liked seeing the progression and the building off the initial simple project! I like the idea of giving yourself a set time to finish, but that should be fairly loose so you don't make a really bad mistake and lop something off that is not leather. ;-)
That concho is sweet! Where do you find a place to make custom conchos? Would really be nice to know!
verry good video thumbs up im new too this and edges like paper cut very good to know.
Can you please put a link to the stick back material you are using to keep the leather from stretching? Thank you for the video.
Great job as always although I do love how you added ten minutes to the half hour challenge 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Thanks for letting us rip you off..."
fantastic sentence!
Welldone 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Increíbles trucos gracias
Are your copper split rings or bottlehooks planning to come back in stock anytime soon?
luvn your vids tyfs do you happen to sell your line snaps, key rings etc, or a place of interest to design the fish hook for snaps ty
Just purchased one, I used to have my car remote in my pocket and my keys hanging out and my keys kept falling out. Thanks for inventing this, makes my life a little easier.
Where do you get the reinforced liner material? It doesn’t show up in the new BuckleGuy supply list. Thank you!
Where do you get your custom snaps?
Great
Do you have online store?
I want to find those hook buttons, where did you get those???
This was a GREAT video to watch. It's super interesting to see the different variations in complexity of the same item. I have two questions:
1. You mentioned the end punches that you really liked were mastercraft. Is that the brand?
2. When starting out, how much leather do you buy as "stock". I mean, if a customer wants a blue leather wallet, which only takes a small amount of leather to make, do you go out and buy a whole hide of blue leather .. or if someone wants an ostrich leather key fob. Do you go out and buy a whole ostrich hide?
So i guess the question is, how do you handle stock levels of leather when starting out?
Thank you
I like the multiple versions. As others has said I think maybe do 2 or 3 levels and just put a timer to see how long they actually take vs you trying to beat a clock.
Hi I enjoy watching your videos you are a real craftsman, I'm in the UK and new to leathercraft. May I ask is it better to dye the leather before marking out, or is it better to mark out after dying the leather?
+1 for UK Leather crafter, i’ve always dye’d leather before marking, if you’re talking about edges, mark, dye, burnish, at least thats what I do xD hope it helps
I liked the idea behind this video, it was fun. Where do you get the reinforcement material? keep up the good work
@@BacchatusJade Thanks
Hi you use the same leather for all 3 ? something like vegtane leather 2mm ?
Thank you
very nice, I like the second one, better to put keys.
Woah 3D ruler 📏
So on the first keychain you mentioned it could be priced at $10. What would you say the other two could be priced at?
Btw I really enjoyed this video. I learned several techniques and tips. Question: how do you know how much to skive off?
Great video, I think the 20 min key chain could have been completed in a Corter hour easily!
What size split rings do you use? 25 or 30mm?
What is the watch you are using?
Please, what is the reason for opening and closing the medal, is it of any use?
Nice work also under some pressure

What can I use to scuff off leather so I can glue it to itself?
I used a belt strip tool and I never go down straight always in a angle and mess up the cut but I’m still a novice . Going to cut it the old fashion way for a while
Without wanting to criticise cos this is a good video, these key holders do function differently from each other. The key holder with the snap hook attached requires two hands removal of the keys, the type with the DEE and snap hook attached to the keys can be removed one hand. From an Aussie saddlemaker. Good video though!
What ounce leather did you use?
Pls how can I get all dis equipment?
Great video! Curious how much you would charge for the last one? Just started making hand stitched key chains like these and it seems like a tricky thing to price because they are very simple but still do require an hour + of work
we have a whole video on pricing :) it's going to be different for everyone, you'd calculate your burn rate and all that good stuff and charge accordingly. If it ends up being super expensive, you'd either have to simplify the design or find customers that understand the pricing is pretty much directly equivalent to the skilled labor you're providing :)
I usually take about 90 minutes total to make a nice key fob like the last one and I charge around $100-125 depending on materials
Nice video! Who was that you mentioned at the beginning?
John Malecki
how wide is the concho?
Do you recommend the SINGER 4423 heavy duty sewing machine for sewing projects such as wallets, bracelets and belts?
I don't know how to use a sewing machine so idk haha!
Lol, thanks for a reply!
Can you show us the 5 hour version?
Great video, as always. My experience is that snaps can become undone when you brush against something or when getting out of the car. I find that using a rivet rather than a snap is more secure.
If you have that problem frequently you can reduce tongue size on the end of the snap and also consider doubling up your snaps. If you space the snaps correctly and match color schemes a double snap on the end will look very nice and add another layer of security to your gear.
Why not use grid paper?
Luckily, I work at a place where we use thick grid paper a lot for rough drafting, so I use that paper to draw out all of my rough designs and even some that I've reused many times.
Also, I meant to ask what kind of adhesive tape you use to not get adhesive sticky stuff all over your stitching irons when punching through it?
I've used a few different kinds, but all seem to gum up my stitching irons :(.
Thanks!
Btw, I meant the double-sided adhesive tape.
How would you charge for your time?

Alright, what is that watch you're wearing good sir?
I'm dying to know as well
9 min. This is the first time I have seen someone use this tool. I purchased a toolkit with this and didn't know how to use it. so obvious.
I also watch John Malecki.
I love these videos but why the rush? I’m getting nervous watching you hurry. 😂😂😂
I think you could eliminate the time element and just go with simple, medium and ornate as a 'three' project video. I never time myself when I make stuff.
*man has $1000s in specialty tools*
*Man grabs edge beveler handle to burnish*

Не знаю что он говорит там на английском, но в первом случае явно лукавство. Видно что край кожи на брелке обработан, а это занимает львиную долю времени... За 10 минут сложно будет сделать такое.
seems like three quality of ONE type of leather keychain but not THREE types of keychain
You may be technically right, but as he mentioned, this was in the style of John Malecki's "three levels" videos. If you haven't seen John's work, you might really like it.
So stressful to watch you make first one
Please never handle fibreglass without gloves on, its super itchy and really not great if you get splinters in your eyes or anywhere on your skin. Especially the resin coated glass shards, those raw cut edges will have been really sharp and not good to handle without protection. I cringed super hard when the kid just went right in there and grabbed the hand full of the matting. Not to mention when the dad put it up to his face, what were you thinking?! Those shards could have got in your mouth or eyes.
I don't think you're commenting on the right video, there's no fiberglass or kids involved in making leather keychains :)
Дуже гарно супер ! Як зробити брілок для ключів volzvagen.
