This week I build an EPIC leather shop apron. "How can an apron be epic?" you ask? When it is made of thick yet supple leather, has a sweet fantasy design, and is covered in arcane tattoos, THAT'S how! I hope you enjoy the build. Lots of fun new skills in this one.

Hey Clever, one thing I've learned over time, in order to help clean up leather dye spills on your work table, you can use high percentage Isopropyl alcohol and a Mr.Clean magic eraser. The two of them together can even tackle black dye on light surfaces..... Ask me how I know XD

I'd rather make apron with belt to wear it more secure and hang instruments like hammer and tongs. To take the weight off the shoulder. Hang a pouch for flux etc. Pockets are more practical voluminous than flat. This is purely my personal opinion. The work is great as always. Obviously everything goes to the fact that blacksmithing will soon begin 😉🤘

An interesting note on the transfer tape from Cricut that I did not know when I first started using one: Cricut sells a regular transfer tape and a strong transfer tape. Do not mix them up. The strong transfer tape is too strong for the vinyl materials and will hinder the application of the vinyl or stencils onto whatever you're placing it on.

Great video! I found the amazon "shoe patching" machine to be very worthwhile and fun to use once I dialed it in and got the hang of it. Good for larger projects (like a cloak or apron) but does not match hand stitching in terms of strength and appearance. Did you know the vinyl sticker paper you used for your stencils also works great as a resist for acid etching copper and brass? With your cutter you can etch just about any design you want, maybe to make a piece of jewelry or decorative trim for a drinking horn or some other project. 2 parts hydrogen peroxide to 1 part muriatic acid, only takes about 20 minutes to etch. Just use good ventilation and wear protective gear, such as a heavy shop apron...

I forget the compound, but there is a chemical marker that people use to wood burn without the expensive tool. Since it only uses a heat gun, it wouldn't damage the leather if you're paying attention. I think that would have been a nice extra to do with the leather symbols, magic symbols burning themselves into the leather Mr. Artificer.

All these years I never wore an apron in the shop. Now you've shamed me an I gotta build one. :-) Seriously great job! Love it. The hand stitcher you were talking about is the Chinese shoe patcher. I use one on larger stuff. After a little work and polishing mine easily sews through two layers of 7-8 oz for belts and holster but I still sew most holsers by hand. Mainley Acres channel has a lot of instructions on them. Main thing is that rough walking foot. I filed mine down and used electric wire heat shrink on it, works great now

If you don't like how constricting it feels in the legs, slit it in the middle till a couple of inches below the crotch line. Add some leather straps to them and now you can loosely strap them around your legs giving you protection as well as full range of motion. I would add some length to the bottom, at least to knee length as well as making it wider at hip level so you can wrap them at least half way around your thighs. This will also give the added bonus of being able to add more pockets if needed.

Aaah damn I just made one. Wish I had seen this first. I used 5mm leather which is super thick and is like a sandwich board when new! Why not add a a loop on the side for a hammer. Super useful so you don’t leave the hammer on the anvil when you are the forge and then knock it on the floor when you turn around . Useful tip on the edge beveller! Another tip is use thicker straps as they distribute the weight better on your shoulders

I have heard (don't quote me on it I need to double check) that you can use wood burning tools and techniques on leather - essentially "branding" the hide - to add details, texture, etc.. If I recall correctly you want to do this BEFORE adding any dye, and I think because of the chemicals involved in the process of making chrome-tanned leather you need to stick with veg tan, just to avoid releasing chemical fumes when you're burning in your design.

Not to nit pick, I'm in love with this apron. I noticed at the end when you put in on that it pulled away from your collar, is that intentional for some breathing room or will it come back to your collar over time with some use? I've been wanting an apron of my own for a while and this has given me some AMAZING ideas, and the collar was the only part I thought may need a bit of a change for my own use. I'm the kind of guy that needs somewhere for his hands when they aren't busy, so grabbing the collar or a pocket/hand resting strap may be the solution.

I found your channel earlier today, and have been binging it. I keep meaning to make or buy a proper shop apron, and this really helps me in my thought process on how to make one. Personally, the one thing I would have done differently in terms of function is I would prefer to have a strap around my waist to better secure the apron and keep it from moving in ways I don’t want it to. That’s entirely personal preference, but I’m happy that this video catalysed that realisation for me. Also, the ring for rags is a great idea, as is the little back control.

I gots you. I bought mine at Michaels but you I am sure you can get it on amazon. It was the Cricut brand removable vinyl and the cricut transfer tape. I hope that helps!

Please dont get one of those stitchers. They're horrible out of the box and even with all the modifications to make them work, they make a poor product. I had one. did the mods, and hated it so much. It cheapened my work. Keep up the good work! Love your content!

Dont use "dye reducer"... its just alcohol. denatured, Isopropyl , whatever. WAY overpriced for what it is. Edit to add: I have been doing leather work for years. some for resale, most for personal use. and, as most leatherworkers, I watch alot of youtube about leather. Almost every solvent, cleaner or thinner sold by any leather company( cough tandy) is far cheaper to find the hardware store (HD or whatever) version. I use denatured for most stuff.. and.... it makes a great camp stove fuel as well. Unless your dye is water based, just use denatured alcohol. FYI: denatured means DO NOT DRINK. Oh and the same idea goes for paints as well.

Just need... NEED... to add. PLEASE.....PLEASE.... before you put adhesive on the smooth side of leather.. it really should (as in it will not hold as well if you do not) be scuffed up (as in, this makes the difference between a nice leather project... and a leather heirloom to be passed to your kids) . I like 100 grit sandpaper. Its coarse enough for a deep scuff, so you dont need to spend alot of time on it, but not so coarse to leave severe marks if you go outside the lines you made. If you skip this, it will... WILL.... peal up. It will take some time (years) but it will peal (hangs head in shame)... I know.
