    I was really excited about this and when it came it everything I expected. The book gives you great descriptions of what the tools are used for and gives you a couple beginner projects. Book is nicely constructed.

    This review is from: Basic Leathercrafting: All the Skills and Tools You Need to Get Started (How To Basic Series) (Kindle Edition)
    Prior to reading this book my knowledge of leathercraft was just was I did as a Boy Scout – so basically non-existent.

    After reading this book I feel I’d be able to complete tasks with a better understanding of the processes used to create quality looking leather projects. This book really is composed of three parts:
    1) Tools – it gives a paragraph or two explanation of many of the tool you may need while dabbling in this hobby/art.
    2) Method – This section takes you somewhat step by step through the various ways to turn a piece of leather into a functional work of art. It includes guides on staining, dying, stitching, lacing, and most importantly tooling (adding design using stamps and custom patterns)
    3) Execution – This section puts part 1 & 2 into practice. It gives a step by step tutorial on building a card case, and a belt. The author did a great job on this section giving a brief overview of the step without fully repeating repeating the method, although referencing the page to visit if you need additional help.

    Overall this book is highly recommended by me. It’s approximately 200 pages, but with the great illustrations and step by step guides you can easily finish this in an evening and truly get a nice beginners level knowledge on this craft. If you were like me, wanting to see all that was involved with this craft before buying the tools, you can’t go wrong picking up this book first.

    For reference – I purchased the kindle version and read this on my iPad Mini. In the past I’ve had issues with reference books with lots of illustration not being formatted well enough to make the book usable as an ebook. This book was formatted exceptionally well and I have 0 regrets about buying the eBook vs the spiral or paperback.

    This is an excellent book if you want to try making something from leather. Easy to understand loaded with great pictures and instructions. Have already made to wallets and a checkbook cover with little effort.
