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 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.

@@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.

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!

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. .

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!

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

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
@Corter 2 жыл бұрын
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

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!

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.
@coldwarrior3794 2 жыл бұрын
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.

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.
