Basic Tools For Leather Work

Hello and welcome to Badger Workshop. I was asked what are some of the basic tools needed for leather working, so I thought I would do a video showing what I use.

Getting into leathercraft because of this covid lockdown. Going to be a long winter. Your video is great. To the point, and informative for the beginner. Will copy your stitching pony. Thank you!

That was cool Matt. I never new how many different tools there were!

Nice Matt! Just started doing a bit of leather-work myself. Good to see you incorporating it into your videos as I think there's a definite synergy with leather and wood.

Bang on.
All information in one video.
Thank you.

Hello Matt, I also start getting into leather work and this video is helpful. Regarding the pricking iron, what size would you recommend as a beginner’s first set, 4mm, 5mm or even 6mm? Thank you.

Those hole/stitch markers come in different sizes but no one ever says what size to buy. How do you pick?

I don't do leather work, but I found this really interesting, thanks
(just catching up with all your videos)

This is something I've always wanted to try.  Have you a link for that Stanley knife Matt??

Thank you! That’s so helpful. It worries me how you’re always punching something!! Ha! Seriously, great, I’m off to order some bits to get started - AMAZON! Here I come!!! 🤗🌲🦊🌲
