Spring Protectors and Feet Protection

I had done these quite a while back but only got around to taking pictures to post them and I needed to change feet over so thought I would do a little tutorial to show how I do my feet... well not mine but the bocks ones
Feet seem to last about 10+ hours of bouncing and I can get 6 sets out of the tire I used (not 100% sure, might be more) so 60+ hours of use out of a £16 tire seems good
For the binding string I am using washing line, like BioHazard used for his spring armour, just with more holes... then I got creative... and also got creative with the feet as my attempt at socks just looked nasty

Sorry, I know a stilter called 'Rob Cowie' who uses this forum, and I kinda presumed it was him... But I have realised now his name is Abe or something on the forum
I should really pay more attention :O
Sorry

Are you sure its not 'adamessex' rather than 'Abe' as he messaged me within a day of signing up here and enquired as to where I was as we have the same surnames... which we don't because my surname is not Cowie

Hrmmm just realized my design is similar to Pinheads one... except that it doesn't need dove tailing because there is no twist.

Just a lil hint really, but i found that traditional style, round hole punches that you hit with a hammer were way more effective at going threw rubber than them belt punch things

never had a problem with the hole punch I was using, just a pinch, a wiggle side to side and out the rubber pops
