Thank you MrKornhole. I'm working on the next video. It has been a while since my last one and now I'm picking it up again 😀 Cheers!

Hi Bartolo, unfortuantely I don't have the time to produce for other people so I mostly make the things I make for my own use. People wanting to buy them is the best compliment I can get though, so thank you very much! Tony

Thank you too!

Hi Marigold, Great to hear! We got a baby boy a few months ago so I have not been able to do as much crafting as I would like, but everything is going well so I'll try to pick it up soon 😊 What kind of crafting do you do?

@TonyNeedsHobbies congratulations!! I understand that completely. I'm into all sorts of things. Calligraphy, illumination, skinning, parchment making, bookbinding, lathework, hand embroidery, sewing clothes, spinning fibers, doll making...the list goes on. I love finding ways to make every day things myself.

@marigold5937 I have a similar situation. When I see something I want to be able to make it myself 😂 Bookbinding is actually something I started looking into a couple of weeks ago. My wife's a crocheter and I learned knitting during a trip to Scotland last year. Didn't make any videos about that though... Greetings from the Netherlands!

Gracias!

Thanks!

Thank you Laura! In my opinion, they're quite flexible and not too heavy to wear. Thanks for watching, Tony

Thanks for your comment. I'm not a material scientist whatsoever, but I did notice that it shattered if I didn't temper it as you can see in the first attempt to heat treat it. Since I had to heat it to bend the ends of the spring, the metallurgical properties of the metal were changed. This brittleness will also occur after heating and bending the edges so I it has to be tempered to become springy, not shattery, again. Heating/quenching was probably not necessary, but tempering definitely was.

I suggest burping it the last time 24 hours before putting it in the fridge so it can generate CO2 one more time to get it nice and fizzy.

@TonyNeedsHobbies thanks Tony

Haha yeah it's quite a lot of work for a little bit of cheese 😂

From what I understand, a leather footbed is normally stitched to the upper and outsole of a shoe if the blake or goodyear construction of a shoe is used. In this specific case there is no separate shoe bed as it is part of the sole, so the rubber insole is just resting on it and only the upper is stitched to the sole.

@@TonyNeedsHobbies thanks ! I understand now.

Unfortunately not, I pretty much made them up to fit my hand as I went. You can use any measurements you find comfortable to hold. The only measurement that's important is the distance between the pieces of wood that hold the blade. In this design that is adjustable to the thickness of the leather you're going to cut. This makes it wobble less when cutting so that the cut is straight.

I use full grain leather.

Hi Kaas Kroket 😉 Dankjewel! Goed om te horen dat er ook Nederlanders naar kijken en het waarderen! Groetjes vanuit Eindhoven!

Hey, dankjewel voor je positiviteit 😊 Ik denk ook dat het te maken heeft met de upload-frequentie van <1 video per 2 maanden 😉 Goed om te horen dat je deze video waardeert. Ik vind het ook fijn om te zien dat mensen dus inderdaad doorklikken vanuit shorts naar long-format video's op mijn kanaal en dan ook nog eens een comment schrijven. Wordt enorm gewaardeerd! Groetjes, Tony

Hoi, dankjewel voor de feedback. Je legt de vinger op de zere plek: het goed opnemen en mixen van de voice-over vind ik één van de lastigste dingen bij het monteren van mijn video's. Ik zal eens wat tutorials gaan kijken hoe ik de voice-over helderder kan laten klinken. Groetjes, Tony!

Thank you so much. Lining would definitely improve the comfortability. Since I made these shoes from the kit I decided to just follow the kit instructions. I have done some projects with linings - no shoes yet though. Anyway, thanks again for your comment, I appreciate it a lot! Tony

Thank you very much!

That's so kind of you! Actually I don't know how to make those. I use freezer paper to cover the inside of the mold instead of a silicone mold. Not sure if that is anything someone can DIY at home or that it's something you have to buy... Cheers!

Thank you, I love these positive comments 😊

If you want to stop fermentation, then it is indeed stored in the fridge to prevent the pressure inside the bottle to become too high.

Thank you too, for leaving me a comment :-)

Other people have asked me this question, so I made a short video to show where the blade goes: ua-cam.com/users/shortskIIPM1QOytU

If you order a kit from SneakerKit I'm positive you can make a pair too. Enjoy! Cheers, Tony

I think I only did it in the beginning to make sure you're not frying it. Adding water in the beginning prevents the temperature to get above the boiling temperature of water. If you keep adding water you'll end up with water in your lard that might separate in the jars. That is not preferable. Thanks for watching my video, I appreciate it.

It is 😉 Buying cheese is easier and faster, but I like to try these things every now and then. Thanks for watching!

Hello Cheongyong, I don't think a longer blade will work well. Since the file and guide rotate you'll get curvature in your grinding. The longer the blade the more you will notice this. A sujihiki is quite straight from what I know. This will result in a noticably wider bevel at the tip than at the base of the knife. Cheers, Tony

Hello Willem, did you try yet? I'm looking forward to hearing from you how it worked out. Cheers, Tony

Thanks a lot for letting me know :-)

Thank you 😀

Kaas maken bestaat uit veel stappen. Ik denk niet dat ik het eenvoudiger uit kan leggen zonder stappen over te slaan. Bedankt voor het kijken 😊 Groetjes, Tony

Thank you, I appreciate it!

Thank you so much!

Hi Arutura, Great to hear you like it so much! Yeah the grinding takes ages. What kind of blade did you make? And what about hardening, did that work out well for you? All the best! Tony

@@TonyNeedsHobbies I've not hardened it yet. I don't have a forge so I'll probably have to use my fire pit and a leaf blower or my charcoal starter. The blade is a bush craft style blade, full tang. The full grind really makes it.

Thank you from the Netherlands :-)

You can buy them from the designer at www.sneakerkit.eu or from various leather stores in the US. Thanks!

Unfortunately I only create this kind of stuff for my own use. I have a full time job and don't have the time to setup for production. Thanks for watching the video! Tony

Thank you Silvia! I appreciate it a lot 😊
