I managed to cut and plane two sets of velskoen soles from Hippo skin..these soles will last longer than the vel used to make the vel skoene..

Did some work on the vice/anvil /forge project. Johan Greyling assisted me in turning the anvil round at the front part..it is difficult to turn this anvil at an angle in a four jaw lathe chuck...this type of work I leave for a competent person like Johan Greyling....here are some photos:I will be able to assemble the anvil /vice part on Monday..Johan Greyling doing the difficult lathe turning work..
