bikermutt07 Posted April 24, 2018 Report Posted April 24, 2018 Well the book runs a 140 American but I think it will be worth it. Probably 6 different times in the first 20 pages he gave hints on stuff to watch out for and how it will mess up the process down the road. Quote I'm not paying 80 bucks for a belt!!! It's a strip of leather. How hard could it be? 4 years and 3 grand later.... I have a belt I can finally live with. Stitching is like gravy, it's only great if you make it every day. From Texas but in Bossier City, Louisiana.

My summer is already too busy to do anything like learn a new craft, but I'll have plenty of time in January. Thanks again, I'll try to find that book. I get that. Now's the time to gather while shipping isn't an issue and get the stuff you don't want to freeze in route, like glue. Walrusshoe.com has Tim's Bespoke Shoemaking. He also carries George Koleff's Shoe and Boot Designing Manual and his Last Designing and Making Manual with DVD. The Bespoke Shoemaking isn't really cheaper through Larry, but it might get to you quicker. Quote
