You have a nice avatar, I like it)

Hi rusty, yes we often do this. it just depends on what the customer wants. but it certainly looks nicer. X lisa

Hi Frank, yes, that is indeed correct

@@Miss_shoe_repair may I ask how many generations your family has been cobblers? It would seem to me that the best location for such a business would be a major city like new York. And your best customers would probably be hasidic Jews because of the type of shoes they wear, but also because they pride themselves on their frugality. Of course I know nothing about anything you do, but I enjoy trying to surmise what I can from a small amount of information.

@@Xanrax I am the third generation. We work in Amsterdam and there are plenty of nice shoes and sneakers to repair.

@@Miss_shoe_repair Wow that is such a beautiful city Amsterdam!!! Your very lucky to have such a great business. From what I've seen on CZcams I think your channel will grow a lot in the next year. Thank you for answering my questions I appreciate it, and I hope you enjoy your spring.

Only the soles yes

Lisa: near the time listed, it looks like you "flip" the paddle in the pressure-foot (walkingFoot) and the Feed-Direction reverses... Does your 'flip' turn the presureFoot around *AND* reverse the feedDogs also ...? Or do you have another action I did not see ? I have never been around Leather/Saddle/Cobbler machine.. just a few Industrial brands(ConSew..) and domestic (Singer,Pfaff,Bernina,Viking,Necci) ... Always had to reach to my right and reverse a Direction(gear) lever to LockStitch... I realized how nice it would be to Reverse without having to move my hand away from (and return) for each direction change... ... I tried to be brief, and now I'm being too vebose ... {grin} on another topic: a friend in Canada in on HardTimes with the economy and needs some warm shoes to fit his BigFeet... can I send him to your shop for a custom fitting... ? twitter.com/jasper_truth/status/1769572805727904189
