The other day I was working on a piece for a knife sheath and decided to make a video about how to stamp a basket weave pattern. The two tools I am using are an X534 and a D436. Basket weave is a simple tooling pattern that most beginners can pick up with just a bit of practice. I share a few tips on how to make your stamping look better.
I am always working on building something and try to average a YouTube video once a week. Most often leather work, but I have also posted videos on black smithing, knife making, casting, and even how I make soap. Be sure to Subscribe if you are interested in any of these topics, or just making things in general.
