This video is aimed toward those who really want to start leather working, but have no idea where to start.

When I was first getting interested in leather work, I found it difficult to figure out what to do even before I had bought any tools or leather. It's a bit overwhelming for those who have never tried it.

In this video, I have broken down what you need to know into a few easy steps that should get you started in leather craft.

Below are a variety of links that I think will be useful to you.

Good luck!

My name is Tim. Thanks for checking out my YouTube channel. I started leather working in July of 2020. My passion for leather work quickly grew as I learned and practiced. I received a ton of help from the leather working community when I was new and now I aim to pass on what I learn to other beginner leather workers. I post weekly leather craft videos that include tutorials, free pdf pattern templates, how to's, tips and tricks, and any other leather work content that I think could help you out!
