I used gorilla glue to keep the toe plates from moving. Just don't use to much. it has a tendency to expand quite a bit.

Mine stay in pretty well with just the two screws. I find that every once in a while I need to tighten them up but otherwise I'm good to go.

Your weathering looks great btw!

One more for GOOP. Plus the screws with a little GOOP. I also GOOPed on some foam wedges from an old pair of flip-flops so that there were no gaps between the shoe and the spikes.

I just read on BM's page that he uses or ships super heavy duty two way tape with the toe spikes.

They look great. I used Spideyfett's tutorial also. Gonna have to try the GOOP idea myself.
