a little bit of forging zack

Lovely shoe John at what stage did ya forge the bevel on the toe?

you can leave it till last David
my apprentice made this one

hats' off on that one John!

I tried the pins but not four in one side. He wore down the lateral branch still with two. Wish I done like yours now Smitty. Owner wants borium now because the pins didn't work.

i will post his next shoeing see how he goes

THE OTHER FOOT

Wow!

The thing is that the excessive wear on one side is trying to tell us something. Putting pins in to retard that wear has consequences for the limb. Perhaps the trim/hoof balance needs to be re-thought.
