This is fascinating. I think I'm gonna make these. Just a thought; things might go a little faster for you if you make yourself a shuttle to hold the long length of thread instead of pulling the whole length through each time. You could wrap the excess around a cardboard square and just unravel more as you need. Thanks for the video. I'm rating it high and adding it to my favorites!!

Thank you very much, you help to make a old dream!
Can you tell me how thick the rope is and what kind?

@rocker43mike It's possible to make it by all kinds of ropes.
I'll recommend to make once.

@shinomun Tried making one recently with jute twine of around 1.5 mm circumference. Took more than 3 hours to make. Clearly too thin. Have access to 3mm and 6mm alternatives. Can't tell which to use. Limited budget so can't experiment with both.

I will challenge you, very impressed.
Japanese technology at the time, to make a thread of 1.5mm, please consider it very difficult.
I do not think the comfort, I think the best would rope over 6mm.
If this is possible within 1 hour production time.

How much line is needed in total (for the two sandals)?

@AlucardZeppelin It's partial by the size of the foot, but when approximately 6 m can be prepared, I think it's enough.
