  1. ...Desmond Tutu? Would you like me to give him a letter from you?
  2. Ah....no I don't think it's the biggest continent. I am a Nigerian. Thanks AwlShucks . I like your name.
  3. Hi, it's been ages and a day. Joined you guys a couple of years back. So this is what happened in a nut shell: changed my cell, wasn't sure of the name of the site, didn't occur to me to check my email, forgot my password. Imagine my surprise when I got a mail today encouraging me to come back. I'm really happy to be here with you guys. Today is turning out rather nicely I must say Among other things I am also an apprentice shoemaker.
  4. Thanks I'll do that. I'm working on something now. I'll put it up hopefully before the week runs out.
  5. Lasts??!! Help! Please! Hi everyone! This is Nelz from Nigeria West Africa. I started working with leather towards the end of 2013. I make bags, sandals e.t.c I spent 1 month learning from a shoemaker. I have issues with lasts I don't know how to use them properly. If I'm making stuff for guys I use my brothers feet ( sometimes I have to grovel) and I use my feet for girls. If the customer is available I take measurements of the person's feet. I have some lasts at home and I need to know how to use them properly. I tried to upload samples of my work from my cell to no avail. Maybe I'm not tech savvy enough?
