Looking for jango Fett boots....

Sorry, I just read the post where he called it a UK7... In any case, we checked some more of my wifes shoes and it looks like the ratio for the size conversion is all over the place depending on the brand. I went back and edited my previous post to just show brands and size.

Hey guys I don't want to step on toes cause I don't know who they belong to but we got a brown pair with "close" soles but not accurate with the blue stripe in the heel and ribs on the arch now if the goal of this project is "close enough" then we'll cast them but if it's for accurate then I would say it's not worth casting them. So whoever you are shoot crow or me a pm so we can decide what to do thanks!
 
Hello this is Marcelo :)
after over 18 full moons Im finally back on this board and with my first post. :)

II have the casting mostly done, there is one part that I'm having a problem casting, and I'm talking with Crow62 about it, once I get his input on the little snag, we can go forward but I need his input on it.

Thank you all for being patient (the ones that have provided the boots so far) and for the ones anxiously waiting for a final part :)

BTW for the ones that have provided the boots, THANK YOU and rest assure that they are in safe hands, I only dropped one pair in water last week, but I think it will be fine...
On another note, will be posting up pictures here, I misplaced my camera card I just hope I did not throw it away as most of the pictures were there, have a squad meeting tomorrow and will clean up the shop to look for the card K...

On a lighter note, the bit on the boots in water was a joke LMAO...

Thank you all

Hey Just got a reply From Crow62 :) on another board :)

I will be shipping back your boots Monday If I can, Tuesday at the latest, Thanks for your help on the project... In other words there is no problem Crow can't solve lol...

Here is a picture of the boots in line, the inside was casted with stone and DID not touch the leather OK so thanks again!!!

BTW don't mind that shoulder bell on the table, I had to make that out of stone and had some left over from your boots (y)

I have a pair of 39.5 european I can ship out.

I had to remove the insole and stretch them a little to fit my 9.5 US feet.

We have 9 and 10us soles cast now, if we need for the next sizes round I will take in count your offer, thanks anyway.

Thanks to Marcelo by the pics, the plastic bags with silicone in front boots was a try to cast the inside boots, the bag was for not make interior boots damages, we are not happy with the interior casts, so, the exterior cast soles will be the only usable for molds.
Giovanni.
P.S.: mhlayne is offering his 11.5us boots as volunteer, we are more close to fill the sizes.
 
I think our best bet (if they are willing) is to cast all the soles then send the most accurate pair along with the molds to Giovanni so he can use them to get everyones the same and best quality.
 
I have a pair of 14s or 15s but the heel is a little worn. It could be built up with RTV or clay for molding. Let me know if you could use them!
 
No update on sending back the originals?
They were supposed to be returned a few weeks back....

Well, the cast was delayed because Marcelo received to late the silicone RTV used on the casts, but finally the molds are ready, Marcelo promised return the boots this week, I am calling him right now to see how it is the ship schedule.Meet me on Messenger.
