Members reuben cogburn Posted July 18, 2012 Members Report Posted July 18, 2012 I've been wanting to get started building mocs for awhile now. I've collected a few pieces of seude hide to practice with. I'm still debating on sole construction though. I want my mocs (at least the first ones), to be built using as traditional/primitive methods as I can. However I want to be able to use them on real ground. I was thinking of using Deer tanned cowhide for the bottom with an 8oz cowhide inner sole, glued inside?... I've been searching here but not really finding what I'm looking for. My patterns are based on Tandy's boot moc patterns, but i'm sort of combining a few idea's that I like.. Anybody have any pics or idea's or experiences? I don't have a really good sewing machine yet, just a few singers/new home dressmaker type machines, which i don't think will really work here. And of course the BOSS.. but that isn't a good machine for this either... Help? Thanks! ciao... reuben... Quote
