I'm not doubting you Smitty, forgive me if you thought that was my intent. I'm saying I'm not capable of it. I have neither the skill, nor the...
So you use an E7 in a shoe that would normally take an E4 and open out the nail hole a bit to allow for the extra width? Also, that looks like and...
That is some day's work for a single man - I'm ashamed to say I'm only capable of a quarter of that... :(

I tried it late one saturday night... didn't go well! :)

That seems reasonable. Averages out at 8 sets each and even I can just about manage 8 sets in a day in one place. 42 trims in half a day... If you...
Interesting. Thanks. How do you work aluminium? Cold?

Wow, I was way out. What width were the finished shoes? I was working on 3/4
8" of square bar?
I reckon if you can trim all four feet in two minutes, it probably didn't need a trim in the first place! :) You could at least have had the...
