Main steps explained

1. ​Decide, inside or outside build

Cut and insert build, or Glue onto bottom of sole?Have a think about each method and then pick one.
The good thing about inserting is you get to keep the same sole pattern, but it can only be done if the sole is thick enough to cut or if you can remove the bottom layer.
Gluing onto the existing can be easier.

Before tapering. Trim the first layer closely with knife then heel trimmer or mini band.

5. ​Test walk

Test it out on a flat hard surface to see if it rolls nicely. If it feels stepped or donky it needs smoothing off. Also check that it doesnt roll to one side.
