I just started leather working and I actually took well to it quickly. I really appreciate all your videos. May the Lord richly bless you and yours.

Really nice work, Harry! For those of us less ambitious, I made a welding apron from the back of an outdated ladies' long leather coat from the thrift shop. Just left the edges raw. I fashioned pockets with an accordion fold so I could fit my hand in easily and attached flaps over the tops of the pockets using copper rivets. The leather was thin so I could sew it on a regular machine using a leather needle. It was lightweight and covered my entire front side. Subsequently gave it away with the rest of the welding stuff when I moved.

Harry, we really appreciate your videos, they are really fantastic!

Nice project Harry. Would be great if You show the making of the backstraps of your own apron. That looks so nice 👍👍

The intermittent back-stitching is a fantastic idea; one that I’d never have thought of on my own. Very impressive workmanship!

Have gotten caught up watching your work and has convinced me that I could turn out good leather work. I have always taken pride in my work and put in extra personal touches to my work. You are a true craftsman.

Well done, Harry! You are a very good teacher.

Thanks for the video Mr. Rogers! Definitely making this one

That is a super apron. Great job!

Thanks Harry. It is a real treat to watch your videos and I always learn something new, even if I am not a leather craftsman. I am enjoying wearing the belt I purchased from you a few weeks ago. Cheers, Michael O’Brien, USA

Nice work Harry and a very informative video.

Nice apron. Thank you, Harry.

Love your safety apron video.

I use a waxed cotton apron for woodworking, which makes the pockets quite stiff so every time you bend over everything falls out of the pockets. So I have to use a pen clip for my marking knife and pencil, and I always use the clip on my tape, this is still the case after many washes. You have definitely tempted me into investing in a good quality leather apron. It was fascinating watching you work as I’ve never seen anyone work with leather like this before. This was one of those videos that randomly come up in the recommendations area of my KZfaq home page and I’m really glad it did.

Great job on the apron . Your videos are always great to watch and your work is supper

Very nice! Very informative tutorial.

Very well done Harry...yet another great video...

Good jobs! We can see your demo now!

Nice work

hi harry, thanks for the idea. cheers. azhar , lumut, malaysia

Harry.. i can watch for hours while i am sewing...... which i do infact :)

Good points. Thank you! :)

Nice job Harry! Thanks for bringing us along. Are things that bad there that you have to chain your equipment up?

great vid as always....may I ask where I can get those Lanyard Snap Hooks? they are the perfect size I need for some projects

Harry would it be possible for you to do a tutorial on making Moccasins?

I'm a little dopy this evening and read the title as "Making a Lethal Apron".

Very informative and well-made video Harry - I really enjoy your instructional posts - thanks so much. Can you please share a link to your fountain-pen-maker client? I have a real FP fetish, and am always on the lookout for a new beauty to add to my collection...

I love the way the brits say leather! leathhhhzer

Hi Harry, nice job on the apron. Your skiving machine seem to be making a lot of noise -- is that the motor? My skiver makes that sound when the feed wheel or blade is being touched by something it shouldn't. For instance, with a roller foot, I find that with leather going through the machine the roller can move to the right a little and contact the blade and blunt it.

This was incredibly helpful, thank you! P.S. if you want a good laugh, watch this with auto captions on xD

Harry, what model of Juki sewing machine are you using and how thick can it sew ? Is your workshop like the Tardis, you seem to have hidden space beyond comprehension? 😃🤣

New subscriber. If I may ask a question: * What is your opinion of the Consew 29-B...? Is it good, reliable or should I stay clear of that.? * Would I be better off with a Singer 29-K..? I'm looking for a manual and possibly the ability to put a motor on it. Thank you "sew" much. (Sorry that was terrible/cheecky joke) -USA.

Love your videos, information, knowledge and...your chair! Made by you ? Thank you sir.

Hi Harry slightly off topic but i have been looking at abbey englands website. Do you ever purchase plain veg tanned leather for belt making? All i could find was sedgewick 3mm shoulder. I do a lot of tooling so pre dyed bridal leather isn't exactly what i need. I guess 3.5-4mm plain veg tanned butt\back is what I'm looking for. Any advice? I bought some shoulder leather from a tannery near to me in Bristol that is all they had. It tooled very niceley but some of the leather is quite dried out and prone to crack when bent more than i have experienced before.

As usual a very well presented video. Do you sell these aprons?

I can't find a link to the pattern. Love your videos

Hello Harry, could you tell me what leather is it? kind regards, Paul

Thank you. Contact glue might have been easier.😉

Is it still classed as "hand-made" if you use machines? ;)
