>>> An idea born...

... of boredom for some streetside insanity.

Does anyone remember a brief fad/gimmick called SOAP Shoes?

*looks around*

No?

*sighs sadly*

Well, I do, and for those who have no idea what I'm typing about, click and take a gander at the answer to this question: Daddy, what's a SOAP shoe?

And I'm thinking of making my own.

*mock gasps from the audience*

Yes, that's right, you're not hearing things, I would like to make my own, just for kicks [no pun intended].

I found a couple of somewhat helpful links, IF you're interested.

+ Instructables : How to make your own pair of SOAPs
+ E-How : SOAP shoes

Now I just need to get my grubby mitts on a couple pairs of skate shoes of dubious origins - regardless whether they're second-hand legally or not [ask no questions and I tell you no lies, haha, I'm kidding!] - and someone with a workshop for some assistance.

*taps chin* I wonder who I can ask... Hmmm...

Any suggestions and aid - no, not first aid! - would be most welcome and showered with gratitude.

So, someday sooner or later, don't be surprised if you see a dark-skinned nutter in a hoodie sliding across multiple stone bench edges along the downtown stretch, ey.

It's just a matter of time.

Mwahahaha, laters, gaters.
