My name is Lex, and I am a DIY hobbyist, primarily woodworking and leathercraft. I picked up leathercraft a few years ago and have made a few small projects, and I'm here to embiggen my knowledge in this craft.
I never even considered leathercraft until I was watching a woodworking video on YouTube, and the project also included some custom leathercrafting too. That surprised me, because at that time I had no idea that an individual could make items from leather. I thought you needed a large factory filled with expensive equipment to do that. I've been slowly accumulating tools, leather, and experience these past few years. Now I'm learning how to make wallets and really enjoying myself.
Hi Lex, welcome to the forum! There are quite a few people who came to leathercraft via other crafts that include leather in some projects. I think woodworking and knifemaking are up there.
I'm not going to lie, I had to google 'embiggen' lol. Hilarious where it came from!
