electrathon Posted June 23, 2013 Author Report Posted June 23, 2013 Thank you. These are the first set that I have made. I took a class on shoe making and walked out with the set. I am hoping to make a few more pair in the next months. Quote
Northmount Posted June 23, 2013 Report Posted June 23, 2013 Fantastic job. I used to stand and watch a cobbler for hours when I was a young kid. Loved the smell of the shop. When we went into town, I'd usually go watch old Joe. My parents knew where to find me when it was time to go home. Keep up the good work. Tom Quote
