Making Leather Gear with Daddy Wendell

Class Description:

This is a hands-on class teaching how to make leather gear. We start with a discussion and demonstration of the basics of leather working without a sewing machine – how to locate suppliers of tools and materials, how to select supplies and equipment, and how to make basic leather gear – floggers, wrist bands, belt, bondage belt, chest harness, strap-on harness, armbands, suspenders, sam browne belt, cuffs, hog-tie harness, arm binders, restraints and hoods.

During the presentation we will discuss and demonstrate the techniques, equipment and patterns needed to make each of the pieces of gear. An instruction manual will be available for an additional fee.
