An introduction into how to make a clog base, an interesting insight into this traditional craft.
No idea how I ended up here, but I’m glad I did.
Brilliant old skill. Lovely tools too. Excellent. Subscribed.
i remember me & school mate,s,going into a clog shop in whitehaven cumbria in the 70s & early 80s, & i bought my first pair of clogs there, & even though he,s been dead since about 1984 i recently saw a pair of clogs in a secondhand shop that were my size, & i knew right away that they had been made by the old clogger i new all them year,s ago, they were red leather, but i dyed them black, when they were clearing the shop out after his death, there was a skip outside, that i got allsorts of things out of, metal calker,s, rubber bottoms, leather lace,s, etc, if he was putting rubber sole,s & heels on, he would use the manufacured clog soles, that he bought in, but used the side walls off car tyres, where there is no wire running threw the rubber, only thin string & when we as school kids needed the heels re- rubberd, ( cos he allways told us to never let them wear down that far that the wood started to wear away.cos he would have to build the edge up with leather) he would tell us to go get him a tyre from a car tyre fitting place, not far away. & he would do our heels for free, we often took off school to go sit in his shop, esp on rainy days, & would tell us to run up his stair,s & keep quiet, if we happend to see,out the window, before he seen us, what we called the ( schoolboard man) that would come looking for us & take us back to school, that we avoided every time, lol, the whole shop & house was a living museum, with nothing, changed,( not even most of the wallpaper on the walls) since the late 1800s, his sister lived there with him, & they sat in a tiny kitchen at the back.that had a lovely coal fired range, that they would cook on, & boil the kettle by hanging it over a hook above the fire, the premises is now seperate from the shop, 2'flats, & the shop itself is a place where women get stickon nails put on, which to me is a massive down-grade to what was once made here, strong comfortable footwear that if looked after will last for year.s, & the best thing you could ever wear on ya feet.. thanks for the video
Yes that was Mr Brew. He told me that the day he finished his training was the day he stopped handcarving. Too much like hard labour.
@@jeremyatkinson4976 yes it was mr brew, (lancelot brew,) & his sister that lived with him,( sarah ann brew,) who are both now buried together in whitehaven cemetry,
You cannot beat clogs i wear em everyday i have afew diffrent styles ..
Very enjoyable. I paused the video at the closeups of the different knives. I am an amateur blacksmith as part of lifes journey, and I will be making my own. Not so much for shoes, but for all kinds of things like furniture, etc. These knives are unparalleled in that regard. I wish there was more on the knives!!! Best, LG
Using those tools, you really, REALLY have to be able to read the flow of the grain to avoid splitting chunks out. Superb craftsmanship!
You wont split chunks out of that sycamore, listen to what the man says, it's green. 4:32 you can practically see the moisture coming out as he cuts. It's like cutting soap.
I’ve never seen anything like this before 👍 Really cool. Looks like a lot of hard work.
Nice clean knives especially for their age, a beautiful craft, may your trade never pass away , a joy to watch !.
In answer to your question Richard, the angle of the cast is determined by what is comfortable when you walk. A flat sole on a shoe with no flex will make you walk like a deep sea diver. A clog with a very high cast at the front will have you tottering along. Somewhere in between you can fall forward just by leaning forward and then as you stride your back foot is lifting off the ground just as the toe kisses the ground . It feels great, I your stride lengthens compared to shoes that flex.
Very interesting, Brian made that look easy but it has to be so difficult to learn. Great video.
Not going to lie. This is freaking cool.
The tire on the shaving/workbench is such a great idea...
Nice work Brian
Wonderful to watch
Craftsmanship is wonderful
On top of your work, I like your work jacket. Looks very good on you, sturdy and practical. Can you share the brand name and review video?
En France en Auvergne nous avions les mêmes outils pour fabriquer les sabots
Very interesting, and some unique tools here, that knife / hook setup cuts that sycamore like a potato! . Question, how do you work out the angles that best suit the foot for walking? Thanks and thanks for uploading this.
Why is the top of the shoe tie area off the floor like that it’s cool how they are made
4:18 wery good idea have in plastic ore metal😮
Did you make part 2 very nice work
Nice👍
Bet you’ve always got plenty of kindling 😊
En patois occitan un sabots et los esclòps
If the handle on the knife were bent up instead of down, you would have more leverage and not have to bend over to make cuts...
Jeremy Atkinson. The best clog maker in the world.
💯👍🌹
Can you not get a left hand knife?
What language is in the subtitles? Welsh?
@tfuntowatch - Yes, it's Welsh.
that is not a clog that is an wooden sole a Clog is a shoe made entirly out of wood just like the wooden shoes (Clogs) made in the Netherlands (holland for the people accross the Ocean west side of the UK neighboring Canada)
Bud.. if your not slapping recycled car tires on the bottom of the clog and donating 20% to charity.. you need too lol. Those influences will make you a millionaire
That looks very awkward to use. I think I would end up in ITU
Don't be wearing a kilt and try that. Otherwise, very educational.
