My point was that when people are having a hard time figuring a measuring system it's because they're forging it and don't know it. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2
here's an idea...........write it down what you did when you missed the heels; then add 1/2 inch of steel so you have a 1/4 inch on each side; then you won't miss the heels...........I have done this myself; so I understand........try it......measure, cut, add slight extra; because you can always hammer finish the heels or grind down if over length. but you can put the heels on; once cut to short.....OK!
David when i got to the yard the owner changed her mind said she just wanted the pony dressed so i got the 1st year to trim the pony when he had one foot done i got him to slap a ruler on it and i said i make an egg-bar before your finished the trim 10 mins ,one look at the foot only i was an 1/8 out
