I relied heavily on your last start to finish video to attempt my first western style boot. I don't own a heavy stitching machine like you do so I did the side seams by hand. Not done with the boot yet but it's not looking bad at all. Thanks a million.

Hello, is there a modern equivalent to the Model K curved need stitcher? Where would you suggest somebody find one of these Model K machines? Thanks for the great videos.
@eradawnboots6 ай бұрын
Hey Ryan...yes, there are modern equivalents, though they are console machines, or basically rigged out in enclosures for safety regulations. They are generally now made in China. There are a lot of old K's out there...you can find them on FACEBOOK groups who specialize in shoe repair machinery. Thanks for the comment!

Are those just normal fabric scissors and what glue containers are you using? I tried the Tandy’s glue pot and didn’t like. Thanks for the great content

I really enjoyed watching you build that beautiful boot. I just wish you didn't play that terrible music during the videos. I had to mute the sound and missed what you were talking about. You are a true craftsman.

I'm looking for someone that will make boots from Python skins collected from the invasive pythons in the Everglades.

Tremendous skills and artistry, I can understand why these boots are worth $5000 or more, I'm sure Adam and Eve would have loved a pair of these.

When sewing the welt, use the end of the awl to wrap the thread around to pull tension, thats what it is made for.
@eradawnboots5 ай бұрын
Oh yes...I have to do that occasionally when the thread won't pull through easily. Good point! Thanks for watching!

Thanks Brad!! We like to line our boots with something unique and cool!
Wow, what an incredible boot!! I was locked in on every second of this video! I cant wait to make my 1st boot! In the ballpark, what does something like this cost? And how much time did it take you?
@eradawnboots6 ай бұрын
Thank you so much for watching!! As far as cost, if you are wanting to know how much the boot was retail, if I remember right, it would have been around 2,500.00. As far as how long it took me to build...it was around 20 hours. Again, thank you so much and stay tuned for more videos, plus very soon, you will be able to join as a member of our channel and receive a lot of great perks!!
