Thank you all for the suggestion. I do love the idea of printed small piece of paper or small piece of the leather with my brand. To add some leather maintenance hint sounds like to be more acceptable for customers. I agree we leather crafters should build up our own brand imagination no matter how small we are. We designed the pattens and made the products with our hands one by one, we are not OEM makers

This is based on an order from a fishing tools dealer. He want his rubber nets get kind of bag which can be attached on belt. So I made this. The leather is Tochigi Vegetable Tanned leather and I polished with mink oil. Looks like he is quite happy with that, but he asked me not to punch my brand from next time. Which is a little disappointed. Of course, as long as I get paid, that is okay.

Thank you and you spelled my name correctly

Dear all, I made this video to demonstrate how to use leather to wrap Spring Snap Fastener and/or Snap Fastener. The small tool I used is very helpful but it is not mandatory to use that. Hope this video can give a hint to you. The English caption was translated by myself. As a non-native English speaker, some words may not looks to be native. https://youtu.be/KC4luz2sKU0

About 2 weeks ago, I have uploaded a video to my Youtube channel to explain my skill for stitching 90 degree right corner. While you can keep the thread inclination consistently from one side to coner and then fade to another side. The video was recorded in Japanese. In order to let more know that, I have translated to English and add the caption today. Hope it will be helpful and pardon for the carved skin of my fingers in this winter https://youtu.be/aH62U9zNftM

This ruler was purchased from Aliexpress years ago, made with titanium alloy called TC4. Unfortunately, they stopped selling it cause too expensive and less required. Now they are only selling some remaining inventory which have unacceptable (as they claimed) imprecise mark issue with lower price.

Hi there, I am a hobby leathercrafter living in Yokohama Japan. I have started leathercraft since Sep 2015. Now I own an internet based shop TORU LEATHERS. Most of my products can be found there. Some tools, equipments I feel very good for improving product quality are also being placed there. I am glad to find this forum in English and be very willing to know and share our different experience between east and west world. I am owning a same named Youtube Channel TORU LEATHERS. Which has just started recently for introducting my skills and tools. The videos were taken with Japanese speaking but English captions for each video will be added one by one recently. If you find my video to be helpful, your suscription and like will be the best gift to me.
