the way to use contact cement is to apply on both sides and let it dry up for about 10-30 mins. then smack them pieces together with as mutch pressure you can, if you don't have the special sort of sole press that cobblers have you use ha hammar and wack it all over as hard as you can and then let it set for 24 hrs... or you ask your local cobbler to do it for you, probebly cheaper and esier

Hope you'll make a greate pair!

me two :)

Thats correct! I thought it would be funny for someone els to do the curancy google-ing for a change ? i think i got most of my materials from tjaderlader.se for this prodject... and some things from slojdetaljer.se

then you teach yourself ;P I did. sadly I'm knee deep in studies and other prodjects but I might have found a fallback trade ;)

Blood sweat and tears, if you catch my drift ;P

thats why you pre punch the whole... and have massive callus on ya hands ?

sure but then u need to restich it more often and it would be more prown to rot in the insole

I'd say that as all post-apocalyptic scenarios, you have to be resourceful. but if you survive long enough I'd say that you would need to learn how to use natural materials again, and you can always replace the leather with other materials.

I think the materials cost me 700-800 SEK not counting tools and spill/scrap

well I didn't have any experience and I made them due to intrest.
