Are there any good tutorials on baking textures in Blender?

[MelodyClone1]

I've watched dozens of tutorials and they're all extremely confusing when it comes to baking textures in Blender. I'm making a choker atm in Blender and I'm looking for a good tutorial, preferably step by step since I'm a newbie, on getting realistic lighting and shading on a leather texture. I'm mostly confused about the UV unwrapping part.

I made a series of Blender tutorials just for SL (and Opensim). They cover all that. They use CYCLES baking and I am not sure what you are using.  BUT they were made in 2.79. People are still viewing them and learning with some nice notes to me of late BUT again they are not the 2.8 interface so keep that in mind as you watch. The theory is of course the same.
