anne Report post Posted March 6, 2009 Hello there! This is my first post here, so bear with me. I've only just started entertaining the idea of working with leather so my knowledge here is VERY basic. I've been looking into different online resources and reading various articles and tutorials, but what I'm really wanting as a next step is some helpful videos- I learn so much better if I can just see what needs to happen. Does anyone have some good links of online videos? I've heard of a couple video tutorials that are for sale, but I'm really just looking for a few basic examples that I don't have to spend money on. Anyway, hopefully this isn't a silly question to be asking here but I figured there's no harm in asking. Thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CitizenKate Report post Posted March 6, 2009 Hi Anne, Welcome to Leatherworker! A good place to start is to do a forum search, as a few people here have posted links to 3rd-party hosted video on various topics. There also are several photo demonstrations posted here. My time here is short at the moment, but I will try to post some links to some of these topics this evening. Another good place to look is on Youtube... just do a search on "carving leather" or "leather work". Kate Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anne Report post Posted March 6, 2009 Thanks for the reply, Kate! I'll go ahead and do a forum search here and see what I can find... before posting I did already do a quick youtube search, but I wasn't really coming up with anything too helpful. Perhaps I'm just not familiar enough with the proper terms and keywords?? Also, one thing I forgot to mention in the original post: I'm NOT looking for help in decorative carving and stamping. So far I've found a ton of that already... Not that I think it's useless, I know that's a big part of leather working, but I'm just not wanting more tutorials on that, not yet anyway. Ah, thanks Jordan- I'll check that out and see what it is. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
