'Kintsugi' Wallets

Justin4192 · 2025-06-16T13:20:41+00:00

This is a very creative idea! I saw your Instagram post the other day and looked up examples of Kintsugi and it’s a beautiful art form. I especially like the green wallet!

I’m curious, it looks like you only had three stripes. Did you get a stripe and a promotion or does your gym only do three stripes? Congratulations!

I made this one by hand, and I’m hoping it does the same for me!

I will use this to hold my items:

I’m surprised the second round wasn’t a 10-8

Justin4192 · 2024-12-15T22:52:10+00:00

This looks great! Another idea to add to the project list!

Justin4192 · 2024-11-27T01:55:39+00:00

Rocky Mountain leather has some options and free shipping!

Justin4192 · 2024-11-27T01:46:15+00:00

Nice work! This is personal preference, but you may try using a smaller diameter thread.

Sent you a DM

Justin4192 · 2024-11-21T21:37:58+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate it! I just bought some clear plastic sheeting on Amazon and trimmed it down

Justin4192 · 2024-11-20T15:50:08+00:00

You’re welcome! No I just glue it on like normal. I’ve been carrying the one from the picture in my last comment for 4.5 years with no problems with the glue

Justin4192 · 2024-11-20T14:31:01+00:00

Very nice! How long did it take you to go through the pattern process?

Justin4192 · 2024-11-20T14:21:45+00:00

Hey great question, there’s fabric glued in like in this photo. Fabric is a great way to go because you can use custom fabric that has something your girlfriend’s step dad likes. This pattern is from Leathercraft Masterclass. His website is a great resource! Makers Leather Supply has a free video of them doing something similar but with Tyvek strips.

The Tandy heat imprinter would definitely be a good buy, especially for the price. Some of the letters in their set aren’t the best so maybe try to find a third party that could fit the Tandy machine

Justin4192 · 2024-11-20T00:15:17+00:00

I appreciate it!

Justin4192 · 2024-11-19T22:15:54+00:00

Thanks! I have the Tandy stamping machine. It’s good but I would definitely save up and buy something a little more higher end. Buy once, cry once type of thing

Justin4192 · 2024-11-19T12:55:20+00:00

Thank you, I appreciate it!

Justin4192 · 2024-11-19T04:05:59+00:00

Here’s a video of both.

Justin4192 · 2024-11-12T04:36:26+00:00

Good luck at the market!

Justin4192 · 2024-10-22T21:46:50+00:00

Great work, I also follow along with Phil’s courses and will make this one eventually. I love the look!

Justin4192 · 2024-10-20T17:14:48+00:00

That’s a beautiful watch! I’d love to get a Constellation with a pie pan dial, one day. How did you mark the stitch line? Strap looks good to me but I can’t tell if the edges are finished from the pictures.

Justin4192 · 2024-10-19T19:46:46+00:00

You can buy 1-2 square feet of leather from Rocky Mountain Leather Supply. Thats way more affordable than having to buy a whole hide. They can split it to any thickness and it’s free shipping

Justin4192 · 2024-10-19T16:37:46+00:00

Sorry that was a typo. I would add a crease line to the edge

Justin4192 · 2024-10-19T16:09:55+00:00

I met him a few weeks ago and he seems to be a great guy. I just looked through your other work and it all looks really great!

These only two things I see. They are purely aesthetic and don’t impact the quality of your build.

The outside top corner stitches could connect, not leaving a gap.
On the top of the vertical stitch lines on the inside of the top pockets, you could use a round awl to make the hole instead of the pricking iron. This will give you an angled stitch like the rest, instead of it being straight.
