Have you tried Bodkins Bootery in Fremantle or dannys in Claremont?Does anyone know a cobbler in Perth that can install flush metal toe plates?? All the ones I've asked have said they don't do it and don't know of any that do.

As a follow up to that post, the welt is fine (and welt strips can be replaced), and Kieran recently resoled those boots and kept the original welt, it just has a couple of small puncture holes from the screws that Manfred's used.
They (Manfred's) have at least one photo of a Triumph plate install where they are using small screws, but I got Lulu plates (and maybe they use longer screws for Lulu) and my toes were already worn down. It may be less of an issue on new shoes.
Will give Bodkins a call. Called Danny’s and he doesn’t do them. Thanks mate.Have you tried Bodkins Bootery in Fremantle or dannys in Claremont?
Will check our Kieran as well. Thanks.In the absence of a local one, I would recommend Kieran the Cobbler's mail in service for bang for buck.
I paid $45 at Manfred's Shoe Lounge in Melbourne last year for taps, but they used quite long screws which punctured the welt.
Call them on the weekday. Ask for a guy named nick. Tell him curran sent youWill give Bodkins a call. Called Danny’s and he doesn’t do them. Thanks mate.
Sweet, will do. Appreciate the help. So hard to find toe plates in Perth. All the cobblers look at me like I’m an idiot and say they’ve never seen them here or heard anyone ask before.Call them on the weekday. Ask for a guy named nick. Tell him curran sent you

See my commentI’ve been trying to find someone local to do this for years, so I’d be grateful for an update when you have one. Cheers
