Making 3 Types of Leather Keychain // DIY to PRO

In this video we show you how to make leather keychains in three different levels of detail. We do a quick 10 minute version, a more designed and fashionable half hour version, and a fully lined, stitched, and finished pro version in an hour. They all do the same thing - so why spend more time than you need to? well that could be for many reasons! You could just love leathercraft, you could be making a more luxurious product offering, you don't need a reason for any of these three versions :) Just have fun working with leather, that's the goal.

  • Thank you for making such a comprehensive leather craft video. The creasing, grooving, and burnishing is so helpful to watch. It shows the value and gives a real sense of steps taken to make professional leather goods. That chisel tool that you used to do the skiving looks pretty sharp. THANK YOU!!

    I think you should make this a regular series on your channel. As a woodworker I’m very familiar with John Malecki’s series. I don’t do leatherwork but I love watching your videos and this type of video makes me think that I could actually do it!

    I really enjoy this kind of video. If you enjoyed it and think you'll enjoy doing more, please do more of these. They're super fun to see. I'd especially love to see one on something like a small coin bag, or a bracelet, or other common accessories, but frankly anything you think you'd enjoy making would be fun to see. .

    Love your videos. I'm grateful, as always, for your commitment to the community. Thank you.

    Bro, love watching your videos, they have seriously inspired me. I only started crafting just before Christmas and I've learned so much. Thank you for your time. And thank your wife for her great videography skills

    I really like the multiple difficulty crafting videos. And this was no exception. Some great tips. Though I personally think that it would be better that instead of having a timer, use a stopwatch. Then you can do it without rushing and show how long an unstressed project would take.

    Hey I'm just starting making leather goods for myself. Your videos and patterns are where I started it all, so informative and really enjoyable.
  • @CohenGal24
    If it amounts to anything, as someone who has watched you for years, your free-hand skiving improved a ton!
  • It is fun to watch John and his guys do the different difficulty levels. This was a great way to show it for leatherworking. Please do more of these.
  • @RageNaught
    This was great, I would like to see more videos like these.
  • Good content as always, i like how they still teach useful stuff unlike others who now concentrate more on cinematic videos.
  • @mattst4444
    Youre a great leather crafter ! Takes a lot of skill to make it look that easy. Great video!
  • @markdenney3903
    Nice Seiko Turtle. The lesson is as always very well done.
  • I like these videos. That would be cool if you did more of these. John would be proud of your video.
  • @divalea
    Of course you can speed run a 4 minute fob with the snap setter!

    Don’t like the time constraint part but love the multiple options
