    My wife came in and asked what I was watching. I said, “an English cobbler.” She asked why, and sat down. Nineteen minutes later, she asked, “what did we just watch?” I said “an English cobbler”. She asked why, I said I didn’t know, then I subscribed.

    I took a pair of shoes into my local cobblers and I joined the army a few days later. When I got demobbed 12 years later, I found the receipt from the shop. I went back and was surprised to find the shop still there. I went in and asked the cobbler if my shoes were still there. I knew it was a bit of a long shot, but after looking at my receipt and rooting around in the back of the shop, the man came out and said “ here they are”. “ Great,” I replied. “Yes “ said the cobbler, “ they will be ready next Thursday”

    You should get a prong punch for prepping the hole for the brass tacks, it's used in leather working to make sure holes are spaced out evenly for hand sewing. Makes it a lot easier to have a "perfect" finish by putting the first prong in the last hole you punched, the second prong will punch the next hole at exactly the right distance.

    Those came out cool as hell Dan!
    It's nice to see a professional at the top of his game.
    peace.

    Beautiful resole Dan. It seems such a shame that after the owner wears these a few times those beautiful soles will get all scratched up. I think if they were mine I'd put them in a display case . BTW I'm glad Ron has a new friend in Mr. poop emoji guy. :-D

    I don't know exactly what happened but somehow I ended up watching a guy repair a fancy pair of riding boots for almost half an hour... Ngl I'm surprisingly ok with this.

    Those boots (in fact all of your work) are beautifully done. Yours is an art. Nicely done.

    Damn, I don't know if I could even wear them. I would have to put them in a display case.

    For a big guy Dan you have amazing gentle fingers. Like a violinist playing on a Stradivarius. I could watch you working for hours. Your the most attractive cobbler on here by a long way !
