    027.JPG ok so I asked a friend to pick me up some 7/8 concave while he was in the big city ,1 inch if no 7/8 was there, neither happened .so I went and picked up some 1 inch by 1/2 inch ,it s massive compaired to the 3/4 .so I made 1 shoe and took pics thru the process .I did not punch the nail holes in it yet .it is a little narrow at the heals .in the first pic I placed the1 inch shoe over top of the 3/4 inch shoe . when bending the toe I seem to get off center some how and have to fix it later which also makes me beat up the shoe with my hammer .I hammered down the inside of the shoe but it needs more thickness hammered in ,after bending the shoe it just filled up again.i had to refuller the shoe after because I beat it up to much ,next time I 'll try harder to sneek up on it . 011.JPG 012.JPG 014.JPG 015.JPG 019.JPG 022.JPG 023.JPG 024.JPG 025.JPG 026.JPG

    Mike you need to work on your heels. And toe bend is not through the middle third of the shoe.
