Bravo ! Succese si multa putere de munca!
Rest in peace Mr. Traian. Thank you for the gift of your talents.
I did not realize how many steps go into this process. Very labor-intensive and gives high-quality leather as the finished product. Very nice.
should try the traditional Native American way. I just got done with a deer hide I harvested this hunting season. Salted and dried for 3 days in my shed, oiled with the brain, set to permeate for a day, then stretched and dried for 6 hours before I had soft workable fur on skin. I then turned it into some moccasins for a Christmas gift. You havent worked your hands until you've stretched a hide on a wooden beam. XD
@WoodLandChef damn straight! My wrists, forearms, shoulders and back were ACHING the day after this.
@@Elmarias777 what do you mean "oiled with the brain"?
@markelafrantzi4668 take the animals brain and a little bit of water, 1 part water to 2 parts brain. Mush it all up into a paste and cook it back down a little bit to get rid of the water. I did it over a campfire for maybe 10 minutes. Then i took the fleshed hide and massaged in the brain paste for several minutes until it permeated the hide. I carefully folded the hide up, fleshed and pasted side in, and set it into a large bucket with a brick underneath so the runoff wouldnt saturate and ruin to fur side. Left it like that overnight
Those guys work hard and deserve much for their labor.
Cinste si toata consideratia pentru oameni ca tine care nu si-au pierdut calea . Sa aveti multa sanatate!!!
Ce faceti este minunate am vsitate zona suceava si radauti in anii 80 foarte frumos
dude, leather is so awesome, but now I'm even more fascinated about it.
A lot of processing steps and hard work in tanning and working hides to get something durable, useful and beautiful.
Din fericire mai sunt oameni asa minunati in tara noastra draga.Sa va dea Dumnezeu sanatate,ca multa nevoie are tara de astfel de oameni gospodari!!!!🇷🇴🇷🇴🇷🇴💙💛❤️
Gorgeous!
Thank you so much for the information 🌻 and presentation
I live in Karachi Pakistan I like your comments send 4 month ago
Amazing. Was watching this for the first time thinking to myself where would you even buy just one of the tooling machines for this process or who would know how to use them. I can see why things are expensive. This guy should be a wealthy man when (that is if he’ll ever be able to) retires...
You don't need any Russians gas to heat you up,but one of these leathers to make a comfortable warm jacket.
Foarte frumos!!!
Really enjoyed that, thank you.
very nice process👍👍👍
With all them machines looks easy. Thumbs up.
RIP. Now I am the only sheepskin tannery on the west coast of the USA

Guy makes some good products
Огромный труд ! 👍👍👍
Amazing work.
Amazing.....😲
ok its a cool project.
*The craftsman is from Gălănești-Suceava, ROMÂNIA!* 👍👌🤗 GEO, Suceava.
pretty labor intense - never thought it takes so much work to finish a skin
Acum știi .
About two thirds of the work goes into finishing. Which means the hide is useable without all the machinery, except the softening barrel. Very interesting skill to have
Bravo
Weldone good job.

Hello my friend, my question to you is, why does the skin tear after a period of two or three months of tanning
Жаксы иеленген терілер әрине,осы жағынан жаксы жаксы мамандар аз болып ақсап тұрғандары, қаншама терілер сиыр соятын қасапханаларда боска калады, ұсақ малдың терілерін айтпағанда.
Тері қабылдайтын жер де жоқ.
Каратау каласынын жанында Сулеймансай терi заводы болган. Небip керемет тондар дубленкалар тiгетiн едi. Казip жок.
Deriyi yıkarken ne kullanıyoruz yumuşak olması için ne yapmalıyız kendim evime yapıcam
Thanks, wonderful to watch but when did he tan? I saw salt and dry, then relaxing, fleshing, drying, then finishing. Did I miss it?
They didn’t show the tanning part
I think they don’t want to show it , from what I searched they use what they call in the video neophalina and sawdust and neophalina seems to be kerosene in Romanian. So they soak it in kerosene to degrease it (that must be the tanning part ) and on the internet it seems that people also do it with a mix of baking soda and kerosene to make a paste that they apply on the leather, similar to kerosene and sawdust. (Sawdust probably absorb the oil and kerosene mix before kerosene evaporate and let oil back in the leather ) They probably aren’t proud of it because it’s a chemical part of the process witch doesn’t sound very artisanal and natural
Almost forgot, I got here because I was reading the Bible, The Acts of the Apostles 9:43 where Peter stayed with a tanner and I suddenly became intrigued to discover what a tanner was.
Awesome when you read the Bible like that you see and not just read. keep serving God. God bless you brother in Jesus name Amen!!!!
Must be the King James, new ones corrupt most everything God said.
*Confused atheist noises*
@@dans4270 No, NRSV is more accurate, as most Jewish, Catholic and Protestant Bible scholars agree on. King James is corrupted, especially in Deuteronomy - King James ordered some parts changed so people in England would be pro-monarchy during the conflict between Protestants and Catholics. But all translations are by their nature not perfect. If you really want to read it, study Hebrew and Ancient Greek, or at least read linguistic commentaries.
Just be respectful
where do you buy a multi blade leather stretcher
How do you make lather hydrophobic?
I work in a shoe factory hera in PH. Our main materials are leathers and sheepskins. I didn’t know that it takes a lot OF effort and hardwork to make them until I watched this video.
Hey! I am a manufacturer of finished leathers from India. I would like to know which company you work in and if we can collaborate!
Is it possible to learn from you guys ?
Hope they have many leather bound books.

Hello sir Hru...show me some simple and easy method
In my workshop, when I put on ma leather, and rock to sum Metallica, Delta Parole, Foo Fighters or the Smashing Pumpkins I feel like I can do anything in the whole wide world.
Must be hell....
foo fighters? lol waste choice
So, these are salted hides; not tanned? How well do they wear? How do you preserve them? What would be the shelf life of vests/clothing made from these hides. please? Thanks.
They are salted to prevent rot while storing them .They need to be tanned/ pH needs to be high .The proteins and natural fats would cause it to rot . The outside of the shearling is the meatside do it is like velour leather .If you want a smooth surface then you need a synthetic bound leather
@@jensrb50 Thank you. I did know why hides are salted prior to tanning, that was not my question because I already knew that.....which accounts for my (I thought careful) wording of my original question. These skins do not seem to be tanned at all during this film. The actual "tanning" process is completely "skipped?" I did not see one part where the hides were tanned or plumped....hence my comment. Salting in itself is not tanning, but I fail to see at which point in the film the hides are actually tanned.
@@payntpot7623 he did indicate they were put into a vat- tanners keep that a secrete, probably alum (low Ph tanning/pickel acid)
That’s what the large rotating drum is for - probably alum or chromium salts.
@@payntpot7623 It looks like an alum tan which unlike chrome tan is not waterproof!
Tres beau travail. Merci.
