The first two pieces glued together.
Well this was fun, I received my fur samples from distinctivefabrics.com. When I originally opened the package, I only saw four samples instead of the five I was supposed to recieve, but lo and behold. The corduroy was stuck under the black fur.
White fur, 2" pile.
Garrr something, this is an awesome fabric, probably going to make my pants and vest out of this stuff, it's strong, thick, and slightly shiny.
Yea, no.
Black fur, 2" pile.
And that sneaky corduroy.
My workstation for the sole construction, I used the weights to crush the plates together while I milled about waiting for stuff to dry.
And that's why you get to see my bamboo! Me ol' bamboo laying next to the hat on the ping-pong table.
A size reference, I'm 6'3" and the staff is supposed to be only 6' in length, but I got a longer one.
I couldn't unwarp the warpage from the rolled cork, so it made the contact cement process a pain.

After two are stuck together, it's much more rigid.
Scraps, yes, I was bored waiting for stuff to dry.
The plates for the second sole, I'm not bending them like this, they're just like this. Made this very annoying.
Finished soles!
Some reference shots for myself, I printed these out in black and white and drew on them for ideas and planning.
God, I have sexy feet.
