DIY vs. BUY: Leather Wet Molds Pt. 2

In this second and final part of our wet mold series, we explore how our DIY Wet mold did in molding a nice small shoulder bag. We look at how the wood performed, how the molding came out, and how the finish piece came out!

I think as I mention in the video, if a mold shape you need is available to purchase for a fair price it's always going to be a bit more accurate than something you can make by hand. But this showdown has taught us that making nice wet molds with hand tools is accessible to us for shapes that are not offered for sale anywhere. It was a fun project - thank you for following along!
