90 year... on a spaceship! Awesome!!! LOL or it'll end up in the Diresta museum. Cool idea and cool project!!

You literally think outside the box! The way your mind uses whatever tool it needs, is like little "ah-ha" moments! I'd bet anything some leather crafters are asking themselves "Why didn't I think of that!" I think working with various materials across multiple vocations, frees the mind from conventional thinking, allowing you to use whatever tools help get the task at hand completed! I really enjoyed this one!

I love the mentality of "if it works, it ain't stupid"

This is gold. I love leather. I have woodworking tools. If it works it ain't stupid. It never occurred to me that you could treat thick leather like thin wood in certain ways. Awesome video Jimmy! Thanks for the inspiration

Wahoo ! Beautiful leather wine box. I'm leather worker in France, I watch every videos you post about leather but this one is one of the best you do. Amazing ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Life hack, for (winter) dry hands I take half a box of gelatin (Jell-O brand usually) and mix it well into a cup of warm water and drink it down. Wait 2-3 days if you don't notice some relief do the other half box. I rarely have to do the second half. The collagen works it's way through your body and heals from within. Appreciate yours content.

Jimmy, having been a leather worker for over 30 years, all leather bends easier when you case it (get it wet/damp). take a look at wet forming leather, it makes creating custom holders / shapes a lot easier. there is also a tool for cutting straping, you just need a straight edge to start with. hmmm I may have to break out my track saw to create a straight edge in the future...

I do hours of hand stitching with leather, and I use the rubber gloves exclusively. They save my hands and give excellent grip while maintain dexterity.

I remember the old tool tips videos when Jimmy used to say "don't use the tools like I do"... Hell yeah I would, what a genius

Love it. It looks like a present 🎁

This doesn't happen the first time unless you have a lot of prior learning under Murphy's tutelage. going to school on the prototype allows the creative "Diresta" to express a concept. Nicely done sir!

Nicely done Jimmy. Now you can get drunk with even MORE class!! Thank you for sharing.

It even looks like a wrapped present! I appreciate all the nails in the wooden base. It seems like a strong connection.

Sir, you are an amazing builder. designer, engineer. I'm always intrigued watching your videos with the care you take to detail. Bravo!!

smiles, great thought about Antiques Roadshow in the future....

Beautiful work, I love the stich pattern and the contrast between the handle and the body.

Thanks for posting and thumbs up.

How fabulously timeless: As charming, practical & delightful now as it would have been for celebrating the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Thank you for sharing!

Great teacher! Thanks for sharing your hard earned talents

Always with the crossover techniques. Such a cool project.

Amazing piece; your leather projects are really interesting stuff whether they get the views or not. That embossing machine for the branding is really slick.

Looks awesome. You could take a clue from leather instrument bags, like a saxophone gig bag, that uses a sleeve that snaps around the top of the carry straps to keep them together and for carrying comfort.

Awesome as usual, your making repertoire is amazing, and inspiring 🙏

This tote is gorgeous Jimmy! Thank you for showing how you make such beautiful items!

I love watching you work leather, it inspires me to give it a try.

Absolutely beautiful!!!

That looks amazing.

Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship! I love the idea of that for a gift. I love to watch you work with leather. Thanks for sharing your talents

Jimmy!!!! I've been following you for years and have learned so much from you, I started with leather working a few years ago and is now becoming my main source of income. I absolutly can't understand the Head Knife. It goes against everything I know about using knives!!! 🤣🤣🤣 I firmly belive that most people that use them only do it because it is trendy. Some might disagree and try to argue but I won't belive them 😅

Great job Jimmy!! I never thought about using wood tools for leather working!! I’ll be making a couple of these for presents !! Thank you!!

Great looking carrying case. Always enjoy seeing new techniques used in your videos. Can always use some outside the box thinking, even when making a box. Thanks for sharing!

Came out beautiful❤

The leather work I find very cool. I’ve got metal and wood projects for days, but hopefully I’ll find some time too dive into this.

Interesting to see the package design knowledge applied to a beautiful piece of leather work. New Patreon content is really appreciated.

Great craftsmanship

Gorgeous!! “Classic Jimmy” 😊

I really enjoy your leather videos. Thanks, Jimmy! 👍👍👍

I love your leather working videos!

Very nice work Jimmy. Thank you for the video!

Absolutely amazing work looks beautiful 👍👍

Cool and unusual box, Jimmy! If I happen to see it in a thrift shop in 90 years, I will definitely buy it! Love seeing the leather work. It's something I have never tried but have an interest in.

Jimmy, you are inspiration man.

Next time i come down im making a new belt to keep my drawers up! Remind me 🤣🤣🤣

You are so creative.

Love it!! Very classy.

My childhood Scout Master would love something like this, he liked to drink whiskey during our camping trips

I’ve been planning a front bag for my Brompton bike. This certainly gives some food for thought.

I dig this. I learned some things. And I wish more of my own real-time design experiments turned out this polished.

I tried and tried and tried to use a box cutter for leather, for years. then when I got a head knife it was a 100% amazing game changer for me. I understand they aren't for everyone, but I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss them as something people use just because they think they're supposed to or they're just traditional. they're an amazing knife that can work well if you give them a chance and take the time to learn how to use and sharpen then correctly.

That looks beautiful!! Nicely done jimmy 👊🏽

Antique Roadshow on a spaceship.....😂 Got a visual....busted out laughing! Carrier is GORGEOUS!!! Lucky guy who's getting it! You make it look so easy!

Wow what an artist and craftsmen you are sir always so inspiring and amazed watching what you do Thanks for always sharing your ideas.

Looks Good Jimmy.

Fantastic work as ever

Cutting a piece of leather on a table saw...legend

I was dissappointed when I saw you splitting the leather strip with the weaver machine. You should send it through the planer! 😂 I love every video you make Jimmy. I think the most important lesson you teach every time is your workflow! Thank you for teaching me for the last 9 years! ❤❤

Great job. Love your videos.

Great idea!! Thank you.

That is amazing!!

Excellent job on the dividers!

Lovely project. Anyone would be proud of those results.

You are a master! I love your work man! very impressive, one of kind. Thank you for sharing.

You make such awesome things ⭐

Locks really nice 👍

Very very nice Jimmy! Nice build! ☺

Great work👍👍👍

Man this is awesome!!

Great project Jimmy!! I always enjoying watching you work out packaging design.

Really good lookin! Great.

Beautiful carrying case! Kind of makes me want to try some leather working now.

How awesome. This pag looks beautiful 🥰🥰

Handsome box to hold a 6 pack of Plum loco wine. 😁

Another new product for the DiResta Shop! This would be a great utility carry-all. Maybe snaps for the internal partitions to allow personal customization. Great box, Jimmy!

Just saw you on this old house making a leather bag. Fantastic

I always learn something new watching your videos! Awesome stuff, as usual.

Nice one jimmy ❤

Beautiful

So functional and beautiful! Awesome marriage of craft techniques. I loved seeing a festool track saw used to make straps 😂 Also- Leather weight is translatable to inches! 1 ounce is equal to 1/64”. So that 15 ounce weight is just about 1/4” :)

As usual, awesome & beautiful work on that carrier Jimmy! Whoever is getting that is very lucky indeed! 👍👍👏👏🔨🔨

Great work Jimmy! i have little experience in working with leather, and it does seem to work like wood, maybe even easier than actual wood 😄

Hello Jimmy beautiful bag beautifully made good job mister

That is a handsome box 📦

3:18 HEY, I recognized Wesleys push stick design, Great on you Jimmy, supporting your fellow creators and makers.

I like that wine carrier.

Love Love Love!!!!

very nice Mr. Diresta ! you continue to amaze me with your skills and i like your use what works approach to this with the woodworking tools :)

Seen this on Instagram, had to come over here and see it. Amazing job!!

Perfect hand bag

Great video, amazed how fast you edited it. Case is beautiful. Mahalo for sharing!

Stunning piece, Jimmy! Really fantastic work! 😃 It could work to carrying lots of different stuff! Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
