Members dogguy Posted July 26, 2015 Members Report Posted July 26, 2015 I'm interested in learning a new skill and I love leather goods but have a few questions. I would really like to be able to make mens bags. How much moneys worth in tools would I be looking at to make them? How much moneys worth of materials would go into a bag? How long would it take to learn enough to make something like a bag that looks good? Do you need a full on sewing machine? Quote
Members jk215 Posted July 26, 2015 Members Report Posted July 26, 2015 Those are pretty loaded questions that can vary a whole lot. Do you have a picture of what you are interested in making? It would best to start from there. Bags are notorious for using up a good amount of leather so the cost really depends on what quality leather you use. You dont need a sewing machine, however, it makes it more cost effective unless you are going for a bespoke high end hand stitched style. Quote
