Because I was bored...

[Andrew]

I made a new pair of boots this week because I had nothing else to really do lol. The pictures don't do due them as much justice because they came out pretty good. I'll cut the grooves out prolly tomorrow. I think I'll make another pair too...I have enough vinyl.

I did them over a course of 2 days. Total time, maybe 8 hours?

I just made another pair too. These ones came out much better and the toes laid down super flat because I used different glue. The glue I used for the other boots is just, suck. Lol.

Which glue did you use?

[Spider]

Look good. I have to make another pair myself. A little taller and a little narrower.

Which glue did you use?

on the first pair i used E-6000. But i did not like it one bit. the toes ended up rising up really bad so i just ripped off all the vinyl and redid them. i used hot glue for the second pair, works better caz i can stretch the vinyl as i glue. let me take some pictures of the new pair of boots right now and upload them.

Alright here is a link to the album of photos for the 2.0 boots. Now the toes have some minor wrinkles around the flap area on purpose to simulate wear and heavy usage of the boots since I troop as a weathered scout and like all my gear to look like how I think the gear would look after heavy use.

Hope you enjoy the pictures.
