December 26, 2009 Comprehensive tutorial for the Cemented Construction
So this step by step shoemaking guide is my present for beginner shoemakers. Note: this won’t replace a master, so you can try to make a pair shoe, but you can achieve more success with proper instructions.
I put together these pictures from a video I made for students, so this is NOT the way I make shoes, but an easy to follow, handy method to make your first pair. Enjoy!

Thank you for this, and very well done to whomever took the photographs.
One day I hope to be able to come and visit you in Budapest and learn from you in person!

Do you do all the lasting with the one size of pincers rather than using different width jaws for different areas of the shoe?

I use the same pliers.
No, I can’t post that video, as it is more than an hour, but it will come out in DVD very soon.

This is an awesome tutorial as Im just getting started in bespoke, turned and soft soled shoes……I already have several shoes ready but im having a little bit of a hard time finding a soft sole that wont wear out so fast…..I think even the pictures are amazing… Thank you for sharing as not many are willing for the budding artist with only a dream to begin…. : D
