Handmade leather bag making tutorial video

1. Leather will taste a little when bought back, so it will be kept in the shade for more than two weeks. I didn't want to waste time during this period, so I used this time to make many eternal drift bottles ~

2. Skin cutting, the specification is too big to fit a picture, and the drawing is clearer ~

3. Starting with the shoulder strap, I used the shoulder strap. Shoulder straps are really hard to make!

First, clean the bed surfaces of the two shoulder straps with cotton cloth, smooth them with coarse sand strips, let them stand for about two hours to dry completely, and then apply white glue.

Don't glue immediately after applying white glue, let it stand for 1~2 minutes before starting gluing.

After bonding, flatten it with edge rollers.

After the whole flattening, first polish both sides of the shoulder strap with roving strips to make it more tidy, and then deburr it with fine sandpaper.

Check it again when you are finished, and trim it if you are satisfied.

After trimming, I will seal the edges. I'll put a little film on the surface of the bed. If I don't apply too much at a time, it will stick to the leather, and then I will grind it quickly with a grinding rod. Many times, long shoulder straps. I can grind it for a day after polishing. After polishing, I will apply edge sealing wax and polish it with fine sandpaper.

Then use the edge to plan a line, ready to chop. When chopping, you must not be distracted, be accurate and vertical, or you will be biased.

Main decorative part

For lining and zipper wall bag, first measure the length of zipper and zipper opening.

The zipper head is installed like this

After the zipper is cut, burn it with a lighter to prevent it from falling off.

I sealed the zipper with thread first, and then reinforced it with pigskin.
