6-Minute Intro to ~25 Leatherworking Tools | Quick Reference for Beginners

Today I go through a wide variety of leatherworking tools, as quickly as I can.

I've used the tools on camera when possible, to show the sorts of things they can be used for.

On an unrelated note, has anyone got any contacts that can exorcise a shed? Something appears to be putting notes in the videos...

I love the funny stuff in this video, like the lil SATAN in the corner XDD thank you for bringing extra fun to the craft

[appointedcounsel]

I had to give a like👍 for your thoughtfully drawing for us the tools you didn’t actually have.

[whitbyretreat]

Very informative- specifically the hammer one! I had no clue

[melatomic]

This quick intro was really pleasing. The video and editing quality was +++. The voice narration is tonally pleasing too. I also thought it was clever that you were able to slip in a bit of subliminal satanic subversion within your 6 minutes.

[elliottvause]

Where did you get your custom stamp from? And how much did it cost if you don’t mind me asking?

[Dovid]

Can a skiver be used as a "fleshing" tool, so as to remove flesh from rawhides after slaughter?

[timweak]

i keep using the metal hammer on my small children and it seems to be holding up fine, is an upgrade to a wooden one really necessary?
