TOOL AND FULLERED

To give you an idea this set cost me 444 sterling it would be a bit dearer for you as he done me a favfour
i got a front and hind block + guide fuller and splitter

will you put a pic of a Roadster shoe on here? what is the dimensions on the C/W tool/fullered and of the Roadster shoe??

On it takes a talanted farrier to make this shoe: I have confidence in myself that I can do this Smitty;
because you, Chris, Mike, Dave, Eric and few others here are very talented too it inspires me to be the best!!

What type of ROADSTER SHOE are you looking?

All different types.

Me thinks I will be needing a bigger forge for blacksmithing I need to know how to get a guide fuller and splitter too, Smitty. you have an address??????

Now Now George

yes, mostly racing IUJH test, barshoes front; and block and sticker behind... George; not on what smitty does.
only shown once on standardbred shoes; which I have one to practice on. need to take pics of it---maybe mine when done

george you have this stuff; may I borrow it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thoro'bred has discontinued all of their swage blocks that I know of.

you have blocks George........may I borrow them, pretty please with sugar on top...pleazzze

a little more work in this linda

George, please!!!!!.......My shoeing life depends on it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Pleazzeee!!!! George, pleazzeee!!!

George, I cannot vouch for Linda returning anything you might led her.

My advice Linda would be learn how to make shoes first
then you can move on

I am working on it

I use to know how 22 yrs ago; But I was dis-swaided from making them; and drilled over and over again into the racing only....and my mistake was too concentrated way too much on swaging racing plates; and NOT enough on making everyday shoes and learning more on tooled and fullering.
I have 1 of my blocked heeled racing plate I made back in the 1995. We were bring the IUJH back and I had to learn at all costs the test; and do it to I could to it in my sleep.
I know the basics of different shoes and how they are made; except for a few which I have never done or was shown until I met you guys on here; and it opened my world up to more shoes to make.

Linda if you want to be a blacksmith just make your own block.

linda i'm out of touch making shoes at the moment
i dont make enough of them
if you want to talk making shoes get in the forge
there is no way round it

George you should get a hammer in going
once a week , a get together and a bit of shoe making
every one might get somthing out of it

I have some exspereince in teaching lads at college and having Apprentices
and its amazing when you get them in and feed them some stuff
they wont want to leave the forge.
they most all want to work on a horse so if you can mix it
that helps

I am doing just that
