This has become somewhat of a mammoth post!

I’ve been trying to do the professional set up, i.e. pay a cobbler to install the metal housing. The problem I’m finding is that they don’t cut rubber to specification. Rather have a rubber of set size they attach to a shoe, and what they have I’ve found is far too thick.

I’m fairly confident that if I were able to source the rubber Miguel uses, I could cut it to spec and install / superglue it myself. Albeit not amazingly but I have an old pair of shoes I can give it a try with. Anyone out there help re; rubber sourcing? How have you guys got on can I ask?

Cheers,
Alex

OK - the pro set-up is now complete and firing on all cylinders...

...except that now, instead of charging me and delivering a delightful shock, it just shocks the base of my heel (the heel above the metal housing) as soon as the other foot comes near.

Sparky's ; is the answer to this rubber insoles?
