Patten barshoe from a few months ago..I think I got my pictures moved over so I can load them here?

Nicely done, Gary.

What section gary and did you fire weld it

Thanks Tom . Smitty 3/4 X3/8 in the pasture next to the horse trailer...no where else to work at this stop..In the summer I have to get there early so I can have some shade from the trailer... Welded it in my Whisper Momma... I guess I should explain why..horse had a tendon issue and Vet wanted it wedged at first.. I built the pattenbar and shod the hind and then later built an eggbar and I used wedges to slowly lower and at same time I let the heel grow upright on its own..It is down to a regular open heeled plate, I just keep the toes short and heels longer than usual or should I say heels taller??....canchaser..

Some stuff from today




SMITTY! THE CLOVERS ARE FOR YOU.

Btw Alex this is awesome

Tejun, compared to what you were posting last year you have shown considerable improvement.

That's were you need to be Tejun

WOW! John a congrats for a kid that meets a spec. What happens when the boy has tenure, as we, and have to solve problems....?

That's what good training in 4 years is about

I will keep shoeing, learning and posting and you let me know when I'm there.

This reminds me of one of the guns I used to vaccinate cows with when I was younger.

Today This is just a neat picture with the horse in the background.

Why do you dress all your feet to the hairline? You're making more work fur yourself and taking off foot that doesn't need to be removed. If you want them clean get a sanding sponge!

I totally need a sanding sponge. What I really need is Bill's sanding pistola. Although this horse may have not have accepted that.
