Thanks for the update, Marcell–I want Tim’s new book and the pattern cutting book as well. I’ve sent him an email.
I am looking forward to the class in Portland!! Meanwhile I am steadily making shoes, however funky they may be. It’s ok, they are just test shoes for all the lasts I currently own. Good practice! I am seeing the results of my common mistakes but don’t know exactly what I am doing wrong yet. I suspect working with too-stretchy leather is part of my problem.

Great news – I had a copy of Bushmans Leathercraft for years but think a member of the workforce got too fond of it. I will look forward to restocking my library. Many thanks, Tim.

Tim was my teacher in Adelaide, I still refer to this excellent book!
