This is the first tooling video I’ve ever watched. I’m new to the craft and have just been making wallets so far. Man what you do is true art. I can only hope to make stuff this beautiful someday. Truly inspiring

You have been a huge inspiration to me on my leather craft journey as a beginner. I would love to learn in a class if you ever would teach one that would be cool and I would be for sure go to your class.

Wonderful video. I learned two key points that I never considered, and for a newbie, I appreciate the way you identify the tools, then demonstrate how they apply to your design and how you use them. I started buying Barry King tools, but seeing how you use them helps a lot.
