Lee Posted January 24, 2020 Report Share Posted January 24, 2020 Also when I drilled the plug holes in the top piece, the eagle eyed would notice I lowered the angle of the drill bit to give a close to flat hole. When I plugged the heels on for a test fit they where tight enough to hold the boot upside down before I even glued them on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahleshistoires Posted April 2, 2023 Report Share Posted April 2, 2023 Hi, Joining this conversation as I have the exact same problem, however my shoes are pink vinyl with orange heels so I don't really see how I can replace it by a beige or black cap. (unless I paint it) I'm wondering if someone can do a 3d perspex cap?? with a 3d printing machine or am I overly dreaming? Photos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
