Mark Fay perhaps he's not doing this to teach. Maybe this is a way to show his customers the labor involved in his craft.

foothillselectrical maybe, i found the video while looking into how tool leather and knowing what tools he used and seeing how the tools are used to make the image is 95%of what i wanted to see.

I tried not to read your comment with a snotty condescending voice in my head, but despite my best efforts that’s all I heard. Maybe you were just trying to be helpful by making that comment. Idk. Peace and love.

Thanks

thanks

yep lol

+PsyMongazoid Thanks

+brian coleman Thanks

+Annie McPhee Thanks

This would not work on a leather jacket. He is using vegetable tanned leather. Jackets are made from garment leather, which is typically oil or chrome tanned. However, you could use this method on a thin piece of vegetable tanned leather, have it dyed close to the color of your jacket, and have it sewn on your jacket.

ah thought as much, thanks for the tip :) xx

+Charles Martin Correct

richard tapp Eco Flo professional gloss finish.

thanks

+Annony Mouse I think my daughter ended up getting this piece, I think it's in her toybox lol. You can get the tracing paper at Tandy Leather.

@@andrethompson8203 thanks!

Visit Tandy Leather online, they have some great pattern and starter books.

I don't know the names, sorry

He used a beveler, a backgrounder, a pear shader and what looked to be a camouflage for the border. Those are the ones I recognized anyway. Hope that helps.

He used a beveler to go around the pattern and knife cuts, a backgrounder to fill in the eyes and nose, a peer shader to shade areas, and what looked like a camouflage for the border. Those are the ones I recognized, there may have been more. Hope that helps.

The stamps all have a serial number /pattern number .... you know what they are, I just don't think you want to tell people

Thanks

+Muther Goose Thanks

No problem

I think it was around 8-9 oz veg tan. I don't think you need to sharpen the swivel knife right out of the package. I've never sharpened my swivel blade and it's ceramic.

Stoney Lonsome Everything I use I buy at Tandy so you must think my tooling is crap, oh wait it's pretty good. I'm surprised you know so much for someone who is just starting out, or who has been doing it for 20 years.

Stoney Lonsome I'm confused, are you calling me 15 years old? I'm 37 so I'm not sure what you're talking about. If you're 15 then I suggest get a job and stay off of youtube. I'm not being confrontational I'm simply stating my opinion and facts. You can say I'm stuck on my ways and that I won't change but that is exactly the opposite from what I do. The things you to told me to do I've already tried years ago and have now found better ways. When I started out working with leather I was buying those scrap leather bags from Hobby Lobby that are chrome tanned leather, stitching with household thread, using a Black n Decker hand drill to drill stitching holes, sanding leather edges with a hand block sander, slicking edges on my wooden shop table outside, and selling my leather products outside my house on the sidewalk on an Ikea coffee table. I've since learned a few things. The fact that you say Tandy's leather is crap says a lot about you. You've obviously been spoiled in the leather field, when you start out like me, caveman style, you can make any leather look good or work for you. As for my skull that I tooled, you can talk all the smack you want about it, I've sold around 100 sheath with that skull and I will continue to tool it as long as that's what the customer wants. Seeing as how I have almost 40,000 views I'm thinking a few others like it too. You can think these are all insults but in fact I've never once insulted you, I'm just going off of what you say. Check out my facebook page and look at all the pictures of the different toolings I've done. I'm thinking you're one of those who does all the sheridan style toolings, while those look great they all way outdated and done to death. I do custom and original toolings. Either way I really don't know why you think I'm upset, I'm really not, I think I just handle criticism better than you, or maybe it's that you found a leather worker who's better than you.

Stoney Lonsome Dude seriously let it go, go find something to do.

Stoney Lonsome I'm rubber you're glue bounces off me and sticks to you!

+Kerry O'Connor it would be some type of tracing paper/vellum.

look up tandy leather online they ship worldwide

You can stamp some "ready made" items if you have a heat gun and a 1-2 ton press to press the stamp with. Heat the stamp with the heat gun and then use the press to apply the stamp to the leather. You don't really have many options when trying to work with pre finished leather items.

thank you so much for reply

+charles canillas Not sure of the names, I've had them so long I forgot the names.

I don't have an image to download, that skull is a design for a customer only.

I'll see what I can do

+sweeny deeny Thanks

Knife sheaths, gun holsters, wallets, purses, fire steel cases..etc.

Ah, I see. Thank you

Tandy leather

flyingbrick88 It's just a basic stamp tool. This one in particular is called a Beveler.

Arilouu Haupmann it's called a stylus.

LOL whenever!

No but I could.

Good question, maybe 1/8", maybe less

Ya you're right, that was light brown, doesn't always come out that dark, sometimes different veg tan make dyes come out darker or lighter, I should have used an antique brown or tan.

Abdias Thera Thanks

+Muther Goose I made the music

You are a super badass JDO great video sir

+Joann Bradley Thanks

It's me, I made the music.
