A small preview as to how Inspectors will operate when we get Farrier Licencing here in the US. I thought it interesting that the government expert,...
What Michael said. For larger shoes you can hang one branch out easier to the side, than front. Forgemaster Blacksmith with dual controls. You can do...
I find I follow every unbreakable rule, 'till the next horse comes along. I think that a lot of these horses fail to read all of these perfect...
I use a creaser every day to widen the lat heels on my hinds, and every shoe is hot. I've also found that I have way less callouses on my hands now...
This is just great. I have to make a shoe that looks like one of Alex's. In another post I did say that younger participants would be a good thing, I...
Thanks for the work Mikel. I feel quite triumphant tonight. I was afraid I'd come in sixth.
Another thing. I think my shoe looks better holding it and examining it myself rather than in the photos. Logic dictates though. that all of the...

So today I was a-raspin' with this discussion in mind, and found that there was no clogging on the wet muddy feet, The Beast seemed to clean it's...
I have never noticed any quality differences in the Save Edge Beast. It seems to give all the requirements asked for from every one above. Happy...
Ray, The way I look at it is, I like my Save Edge Beast rasp, the extra wide and extra long model. I have a wider surface to get a hoof flat easier...
I'll buy a set. With a name like that you could expand into octagonal, 'L' shaped wrenches too.
Can't see that in the Farrier biz, but I see your point here on the forums.
Ray I have in fact called Farriers in other areas that I was considering moving to (though I never did). I started each conversation with "Hello,...
Has anyone here ever approached a potential client and said you could shoe their horse in a quality fashion, but had to say that you couldn't give...
