I think being a cobbler would be cool as shite
A custom shoe or boot maker is far different than a cobbler. Except maybe in a big city there is basically no need for a cobbler anymore and you cannot make any money doing it. There is a legit reason why this trade / skill doesn’t really exist anymore.

I have an uncle and a cousin who turned fishing into a semi profession. My cousin even owns an artificial bait company out of the deal.
Another cousin turned weekend racecar driving into a NASCAR career.

I said a trade for a hobby, not a living. Like. Said, I would love to do leather work, build high quality dress shoes, maybe sell each pair to help to pay for tools, material, and my time.
