    I would roughen up both surfaces, glue, then heat up to make rubber supple, a hair dryer will do once glue has dried. then using the back of your knife run around sole, trim then buff to welt. groove then stitch. hope this helps. how thick are the rubber soles?, if they are only about 2mm thick just glue on. any more than 5mm then stitch.

    Hi I made a bench for the workshop, I made three drawers at one end and a grid type section at the other to keep all the rolled leather in, its better than leather sitting ontop of each other and easier to get to. Oh and don't put your vice on the same side as your drawers. especially if the handle is long.

    I think the 72 is a long arm patcher, the base may be slightly bigger, not sure but someone on here will put you right!

    I'm looking to buy these but what volume is best 1, 2 or 3?. I know some may say depends what you want to make, but looking at the picture of books some patterns are doubled up. So can anyone recomend one of the above.

    Check out Trylon we use them for other things. Hopefully should be able to help, I would be interested in re-enactment style buckles.
