The diagram shows the explanation on how to make clogs, traditional wooden shoes. There are six steps until completion which includes crafting the wooden base and various intricate handicrafts.
Before anything else, acquiring the main wood ingredient, which needs to be a specific type such as poplar or willow, is the most important. After that, cut a decent piece of it by using a saw. The next step is to remove the extra part from the log with the help of an axe and carefully shape it so that it starts to look like the exterior of a shoe.
Once you succeed in molding it, then use a knife to properly smooth out the rough edges to get a nice and round front. Now it is time to get to the interior parts. In this stage, you need to have a special tool called spoon drill to curve out the insides of the shoe-shaped wood in order to make a hole, big enough to put your feet in. By this step, only the final touches are left to made by rubbing with some sandpaper to get a polished look.
Finally, the shoe itself has been completed and is ready to wear. However, if you feel the need to give some life to it, you are free to decorate it by adding some colors and paintings of your own style.
