Idea for Shoe Repair Machine...fixing shoes is its sole function...

How about a shoe repair machine? This machine might look like the ball cleaning machine in a bowling alley. It seems shoes mostly wear out on the heels – usually worn more on one side than the other. How about putting these worn-out shoes in this machine to apply a molding composition to the worn side – and thus return the shoe heel to its original flat condition. The concept is similar to applying a patch or retread to a tire. The machine could match original color and tread so that it looks new when done. Maybe the machine could also clean, polish, deodorize and in general return the shoe to original condition. These machines might be placed in shopping malls, airports, health clubs, and the like. The machine would refurbish your shoes while you watch.

Possible Start Building Blocks –
· Existing concepts for bowling bar refurbishing machine, automatic skate sharpening machine, tire retreading, bone grafts, etc.
· USPTO Class/Subclasses for "How-To" ideas – 12/142Q, 36/72R, D15/199
