A weekend workshop to crank out some turn shoes. A lesson for next time – we built these in a period manner, which meant not lasting them like a 17th+ century shoe, cranked tight to the last and nailed in place. Instead, the shoe is tugged snug to the last and sewn on that way. Unfortunately, I did not advise my students to tug tight sufficiently, and many of them ended up being a half size or so too large. Knowledge to take on to the next workshop…

But wait, there is more workshoping…

We must always have kitty help.

Never mind the cider by the corner!
