Okay I came here for the leather work, BUT that ruler trick... I've never seen that done before in my life but it is SO useful! Mind blown, new trick learned. Thanks sir
Thanks !! Be sure to see my other videos where I show it in more detail.
I like your tutorials and your sense of humor. Excellent ides and the craftsmanship!
Thanks !!
Love that Chloe approves of the beverage.
She is in control of all happenings.... including taste tester. Lol
Artie, THANK YOU for sharing you talents with the world. I feel like I am getting a free apprenticeship in leather craft. Your videos offer unique techniques that I have implemented into my craft. As a true beginner I can say you have help me learn this craft. Thank you for your commitment to these videos and to leather craft.
Thank you for this and for taking the time to watch, Support and comment.
I watch a lot of leather craft videos. Yours are the best.
What a great compliment! Thank you!
Brother, I am speechless. Thank you so much. I will use this notebook cover for the rest of my lifetime, much like my Mascon Leather Wallet, and afterwards it will continue on in my family as an heirloom, honored by future generations. With technology, it is hard to fathom that my great grandson, after receiving this notebook as he heads off to college in the year 2050, could essentially look this video up and watch its creation by the master's hands ❤️
Perfect!!
Just love your videos...☺☺
Thank you so much 😀
Awesome video!
Thanks!! And thanks for watching! Be sure to subscribe if you haven’t already!
My Sunday is complete!!! BTW there is a great fractional calculator app for the iPhone. As a woodworker I use it all the time since I'm old and my brains is mush...
I think my phone was occupied doing the filming on that clip. 😆
Watching you try to figure out the fractions makes me so glad I live in Canada and use the metric system! I suck at fractions! Lol. This build would be perfect if it had a pen holder! I think I’ll make one!! Thanks for the video!
Thanks! I’ve made them with pen loops as well. Depending on client requests.
Thanks for watching!
Wow. Just wow. Spectacular!!!
Thanks!!!
Great job!, regards from Seville, Spain 🇪🇸.
Thanks! And greetings!
Awesome
Thanks and thanks for watching!
I appreciate you showing the pattern making process. A lot of videos skip this part
Thanks !! I appreciate the feedback! And thanks for watching!!
copper rivet man strikes again! looks awesome bro. ✊🏻
😆 thanks!
Perfect Sunday morning tutorial and as always entertainment. Thanks man, well done!
Thanks for watching and the kind words! Now it’s time for football!
You got that right!!! Go Pats! (Even though Edgar Allen Poes boys are gonna take it)
Good Leather Work But Could We Go One Day Without Spilling The Whiskey!!!
Not likely. 😉
Love the craft and your creativity
Thanks! And thanks for taking the time to comment!!
Love your video 💯👍❤️❤️❤️ !!!!!
I appreciate that!! And you taking the time to comment!
Awesome like always!
I really appreciate that!
super boulot comme d'habitude. Bravo !
Thank you!
Another great video....
Thanks!!
Your videos have inspired me to try some case/wallet/bag projects instead of just the humdrum knife sheathes
Perfect! Have fun!!
Was wondering how the hard cover notebook slides into the leather sleeve. Do you have to widely open the cover backwards to work it in? Is it easy to insert? I always thought the inside sleeves could only be about half the width of the cover.
Slick the back of the leather. See my latest video
Brother. Where did you get that “sanding tool” you use to edge the leather. It looks like a skiver but more of some kind of rasp (to help with gluing)Or is it something custom you made? Love your videos.
It’s a rougher. Custom made by my son. He makes a lot of my tools. If you watch the “making a railroad spike” video on my channel, that’s him.
I'm a newbie! What are the round brass items which look like brass knuckles?
what kind of watch is that you are wearing?
I can’t recall. 😆
Love the videos. What is the tool your using to scuff the edges of the leather to prepare for gluing? I’ve looked around and can’t find anything like it. Keep up the good work.
Thanks ! It’s a rougher my son made for me.
Mascon Leather that would explain why I can find one.
Спасибо Вам за видео! Можно увидеть много интересного, заодно и посмеяться! Всё с юмором сделано! Собака у Вас классная, кофе с виски любит!....)
English translation?
@@MasconLeather Google in halp...) My language Russia
Can’t copy and paste from you tube to google for translation ..
@@MasconLeather Thanks for the video! You can see a lot of interesting things and laugh at the same time! Everything is done with humor! Your dog is cool, he loves coffee with whiskey! ....) Thank You!
Thank you so much! And thanks for watching!
Love the vids as always. Picking up great tips in just about each one--- Question: what do you do with the left over copper stems (?) from the rivets? I've noticed in several videos you collect them in what looks a mortar. I imagine you have some tonnage to deal with as many rivets as you peen. :^)
Thanks for watching!!! I keep all posts. I have a few pounds. I may get my son (blacksmith) to make something someday
I love your videos bro was wondering what type of camera you use or do u use a go pro
Nikon d 5600, iPhone 8 Plus and go pro
Can't you use a rivet gun for placing the rivets? Or is it too much force/ pressure ?
Totally different rivets. These are solid metal. And …. Well, simply put, no.
@@MasconLeather is there not a rivet gun for leather work and leather specific rivets? I'm trying to be serious, so please don't think I'm joking or being rude.
No. There’s not. And won’t be. For way too many reasons to elaborate on here. Simply, no.
Your long pause while trying to add the fractions made me laugh! Btw, I've been recently binge watching your videos. I am hoping to start leather craft this month and I'm trying to soak up as much content as I can. Could you tell me what your circle cutting tools are called? The brass looking ones with different sizes of circles, you use them to cut your corners... Thanks! Great content, keep it coming!
Thanks for watching! Circle tool was made for me by - instagram.com/solid_brass_ural?igshid=xxodo4jbldq9
Thank you!
Where did you get your coffee mug? Been looking online for a week!
It’s an antique
Also, die grüne Socke an der Tür ist ja mal ein cooles Objekt 😂

@@MasconLeather This green sock by the door is a cool object LOL
Ah!!! A Christmas stocking. Planted that in the video to represent the timing (Christmas time)
@@MasconLeather Yeah, sure 🤣
LEUCHTTURM1917 vs Moleskine and advantages or differences? glad to see Quality Control (Chloe) was on hand to approve
Chloe runs the shop. For sure. I can say which notebook is best.... I simply make for client requests
Where did you get that square you're using for aligning the pieces at 8:50? That looks really handy.
I had them custom made by a machinist
@@MasconLeather I should have guessed. I was hoping it was something translated from the paper industry.
They make some similar for woodcraft. Check amazon. Red aluminum
@@MasconLeather They are in my cart. Thanks!
Boom! 🤘
Hello. What stamping set is that and the metal thing u use to place them in?
I had it custom made years ago. Check out hex n hit
Well I really thought I wanted a set. Holy cow Batman. Lol. Maybe Santa will bring it if I’m a really good boy?
👍 nice job & nice presentation as well 😁. Specification of the leather used ?
Thanks!! All specs are in the video description, under the video as it plays. 👍

😆 thanks for watching.... and remember, you’re watching a craft AND entertainment. 😉
And google “mcguffin” and “Easter eggs”. 🤘
Man I would but already watching another video. Keep up the great work. Just noticed a theme about 3 videos in.
It started years ago in my Instagram (IG) posts. The thousands of IG followers (58,000+ now) came to expect it, so it carried over into the KZhead videos.
@@MasconLeather That is awesome, i get it I just am not an IG follower so didn't know there was history there. but hey if people like it more power to you. I just notice oddities.
Watch next- kzhead.info/sun/lb2jn7yFiH1-oHk/bejne.html
Столько бессмысленных действий, и огромная трата времени в пустую.
