Tinneal Posted December 18, 2011 Report Posted December 18, 2011 The only thing I can see needing improvement, is you need to pull the lacing on the bottom tighter. I find the best thing to do, is pull it as tight as you possibly can - preferable with a set of smooth jaw needle nose pliers, then let it sit for a few days before tightening it again. You'll find the lace stretches over time. Other than that, the tooling and overall work looks good! Quote

I think my fingers were feeling quite raw when I finished the lacing, so much so that I didn't feel much like going back there...but I should have. Thanks for that input. Quote
