Thread: Plungers And Boots...

  1. #1
    I have seen many people use these before so I decided to post a Tutorial to show people how I did mine.

    I used:
    Hot Glue
    Shoe Goo
    Black Plungers
    Black Boot
    Boot Armor
    Screws
    Screw Driver

    note:
    You will need to adjust the size of the cut plunger based on your boot size.


    Supplies (I used the Air to cool the hot glue faster, hold the can upside down to do that)


    Toes Armor with Shoe Goo where the plunger will go


    Plunger in place with hot glue to hold it snug in place. Just on the top edges and one spot in the middle bottom.

    That finishes the plunger portion and here is what this looks like.

    Finished Plunger

    Now I will reinforce the spots that I will screw the armor to the shoe (with hot glue).


    A screw will go in the tip and I made two spots on the side for side screws if I wanted to add those later.

    And here is the finshed product. The heel piece will also be screwed on. You will put some hot glue right on the heel where the screw goes in the heel. My and toe took one screw each.


    Finished.....

    I agree to, the plunger makes it look extremely realistic

    I&#39;d sticky it, just not in the noob forum. This is a method that solves a very old aesthetic problem with the Mk VI boots. It&#39;s simple, easy, and cheap. I&#39;d say win-win all around.

    Where would it go? Creation? Molded? Underarmor?

    Creation will probably work. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]
