People who live in the forest. A channel run by two cousins, Ken and Wataru. We will send videos of outdoor activities, shoe making, Cultivation of Staghorn ferns (platycerium), etc. We love making something. Video is one of them. We would be very happy if you could subscribe to our channel.
The toe plate is called a toe tap. It's supposed to stop the front of the sole from wearing out faster than the mid foot pad. A steel toe is something else used in industrial foot wear to prevent the toe box from being crushed. Brass is more luxurious because it can be sanded easier into the leather sole. Steel would be something used in England extensively more than the United States. The screws would need to be a tapered head with a full thread up to the taper and sanded flush to the toe tap. If the toe tap isn't sanded flush, the screws will snag carpet & rugs. As horrible as it seems walking on concrete tends to level every thing out. The toe tap won't prevent the toe wear from sidewalk gaps unfortunately. Leather soled shoes are for indoor use being concrete actively destroys them without a top lift on the wear surfaces. The main issue with top lifts is that they add weight. When moisturizing leather, it is important to avoid the stitching because it can make the holes bigger & degrade the thread. It's best to rub it into the stress areas & bends. You do nice work & eventually will become a master craftsman in short order.
This is EFFORT 🔥. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR UPLOADING AMAZING VDOS LIKE THIS. It really gives me strength in some ways, I don't know how. My papa does these kinds of works and I used to help him. I miss him really ❤.
Love this design a lot, do you have the architect's plans for it? And is it possible to get a copy I think this design would be perfect for me. Please let me know. Thank you
