Wyvern Report post Posted March 22, 2010 (edited) Found this on another forum that I visit on occasion. The frustrating part is not seeing how he actually put the back and the front together! Pretty interesting though, from the 1950's http://ssa.nls.uk/film.cfm?fid=0958 Would anyone know where to get one of the tools he uses to make the wavy cuts?

scottishshoemaker Report post Posted March 23, 2010 Cheers for posting this Wyvern, Only in the 50's would you work with glue with a suit on!!! The tool for making the wavy lines looks like a pricking iron, a heavy duty type, No.3 or 4. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UKRay Report post Posted March 23, 2010 If your looking for a tool to make those wavy lines do a search for a pinking iron. Barra Definitely a pinking iron - they come in rounds and half rounds as well as the flat edge sort. Ray Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
