Straight Blade Draft Horse Fuller for Ft Worth WCB 2024 Season Finals
Riley Kirkpatrick and I were in New Mexico last week at WCB headquarters and figured we'll get started on making the specimens for the 2024 Ft Worth WCB season finals that we're judging this winter. In the two-man class there will this style straight blade draft fuller that you'll have to make in the class and then use it to fuller the draft bar shoe in the class. Riley takes you through the whole process he used to make the fuller and talks a little about what he expects to see as well. Hope this helps you all out that are planning on going and wanted to put this out there early enough for you to get a jump on them if this will be your first time making fullers!

Aluminum Horseshoes for a Show Hunter
zhlédnutí 3KPřed měsícem
Some disciplines of riding horses prefer to be shod with aluminum horseshoes. In this case, I shod a show hunter and they like to have her done up with aluminum shoes. Typically shoeing a horse with unclipped shoes is pretty straightforward but with any horse that is jumping obstacles, there needs to be clips on the shoes to share the workload with the nails otherwise the shoes would sheer righ...

French Hind Horseshoe w/ Masselot Clips Forged from 3/8x1
zhlédnutí 1,4KPřed 2 měsíci
It's time to pick it back up and get into horseshoe practice mode! I decided to make a French Hind horseshoe in this video because it's on a few shoe lists of contests I'll be attending this summer. This shoe has a lot of forging tests within itself while you're building it. There's bumping or upsetting material, drawing out steel, forging straight steel to a round radius, tong and hammer contr...
Everyday Horseshoeing! Shoeing an Eventing Horse with Toe Clips
zhlédnutí 6KPřed 4 měsíci
I take you along through my everyday horseshoeing and what entails on a basic shoeing job for a horse that I have been doing for multiple years. Initially I thought I was going to have to do new shoes but the fronts ended up being thick enough to reset and I did have to do new shoes on the hind feet though. Drop a comment if you would like to see more everyday shoeing content and/or the ins and...

👍
When I sharpen em I take a bunch off the cheeks especially toward the tip, I think that’s why they all say void once sharpened because to get them where a guy can use em you start getting em pretty quick. My grandpa said he wore the crook off one. 😂
I use a round file from a chainsaw. The ones real nice, I like a whippy little left handed one, the crooked offset is neat.
👍
👍
How important is tong position when doing that little trick?
Pretty important as you have to hold strong the opposite branch and corner on the anvil for the bar to compress. Otherwise you’d be just shaping it loosely rather than compacting the bar.
Good tip there bud!
That’s cool
I had heard that you don't want to cut the frog away because it is a natural cushion???
Not necessarily a cushion. It’s more like the heart of the foot. When loaded, it sends blood supply through the foot and limb. You don’t want to trim it too short because that can cause pain but you also don’t want to leave it excessively long either because it can lead to bacterial infections with crap not being able to clean out easily.
The radio in the background is really distracting.
Concave is fun to work , for me anyway .
That clip is source verified 👌 We only apply clips that are source verified on our horses 😂😂
Dope a$$ shoe 👠 ... Straight dope boy fresh 😎
Thanks guys. It’s always a pleasure to see your work and process.
Great work 💪 moisture is our biggest challenge here in New Zealand.
Ready to see you in chattanooga!
may the straightest guy win lol
Do you guys see any difference in the quality of the material when forging it in the coke versus gas forge? I mean do you think sulfur from coke has negative influence on tool making?
Not at all. Just have to be mindful not to burn it up is all.
Did this after watching the video. Thanks for the inspiration.
That’s awesome!
West Texas feet are particularly hard right now, gotta keep knives sharp and a fresh rasp .
I can only imagine!
I always start on the back feet first. Works in my favor most of the time.
Looks like a half set to me
If your cold shoeing you can torch the hoof to make it softer (pro tip from a not pro farrier)

Lady today hosed her horse off after her lesson and let him have a roll in the sand pen, immediately before me climbing under. Felt like I had been at the beach all day without the fun parts! 😂
A good customer has a rake handy and gets it out of the way , and keeps the dogs up !!
What can you do...shit happens! 🤣
No big deal to a horse person.
Hero is a very nice boy. Great job!
I think I seen a rasp Mark
Great video! Thanks for the help. I'll put it to use.
Beautiful closed over the back of the frog, great rock and debris holder !!
Why aluminum? Was it a clients preference?
Our feet in south MS are a a little over saturated right now.
This horse has the patience of a saint..at least what we're seeing. Great work!!
Kigali is a great horse to work on and is very appreciated by me!
Why not try Titanium,last forever i bet
I believe the study has been done before and the effects weren’t conducive. Titanium is very expensive and actually fairly difficult to forge or shape to fit a foot. And I think the study that tried it showed the shoes wore out just the same as mild steel but I could be mistaken. I’ll have to do some looking into that study again to see what it actually stated.
Yo! Sweet job! Can I ask is that the 12oz Jim poor hammer how do you find it?
It is but Yukon Forge is making them now and when you go to checkout on his website use code BRAINS for 10% off.
@@USAfarrier-pnwfarriershow thank you I’m super tempted want it to be right as I’m ordering from uk! Dose it ring off well? They look amazing
Excellent video, Gavin. May I ask that in the next video in which you talk about aluminum shoes, you also talk about the reasons for their use, for the benefit of those of us who have a lot to learn about horses. Specifically about the pros and cons of aluminum as opposed to steel, and why the disciplines that favor them do so. I realize that they may be a few ounces lighter than steel, but does that difference affect the health or performance of an animal as powerful as a horse? Also, please tell, us in your opinion as a farrier, what issues will cause you to recommend for or against aluminum.
Very nice work, aluminum is not my favorite medium to work, but I'm like you only have a handful of them I do. The feet here in southwest Wisconsin next to the Mississippi are nice and soft, thanks to plenty of rain lately! I'm lucky!
What do you think of composit horse shoes? Glad your back doing your videos again. I'm not too fond of shorts. Have a great day!
Thanks for another great video. I’ve learned some good things from you! ⚒️
Great Presentation. Thoughly enjoyed it. Liked to hear you using Standard measurements. Made me feel at home. Keep em coming. Thanks for sharing, Sir...
I want to make a trap for wolves. What's the right metal?
I just love watching horse shoeing.
👌
Hey Gavin, missed you bud, it was nice to see you doing what you do best at work. Looking forward to an inspiring video from the master. 😊
Great video, Great song. Thanks for sharing. Keep em coming, Sir...
❤❤❤
Make sure your shoe is flat before burning it on the hoof
