Nothing special, just shoeing to an agreed setup.
Oh I finished my work before I bolted... I may be a pacifist, but still waters run deep... push too hard and the sh*t will hit the fan. But the...
I had an interesting day today.... got called out to a remedial job, I'm doing 4 vet referrals in in a 25 horse yard. But today the regular farrier...
That only applies to farriers that strive.... I know plenty that don't strive at all, just slap 'em on. I'm sure sure we all do.
True David My old man always taught me: Turnover is vanity, profit is sanity. :)
Mysteries.... You can see in the lifestyles of some farriers that they are doing a good number at good prices, and doing very nicely... ...but...
First you tell me its possible, now you don't think so. Which is it? Not all to a good job but some do a very good job. I work at the track I see...

Tell you what, you guys happy to do a million trims a day, send me your number. I'll flick on the next all day trim job. I reckon it has knobs on...
Smitty what is the reasoning for the shorter medial... and longer lateral branch?
The most I've done in one day is nine full hot sets, some with stud holes... all at one stable. It was 42 degrees C that day. AND I NEVER WANT TO...
10 a day.... **** that!
If it is forged back to a flat foot surface I can't see a problem. It is common down here where it is uncommon to be able to buy machine mades...
This goes through my mind most times I work with vets.... but an exercise in futility actually saying so. :censored:
Righteo. Its funny, a lot of the guys here drive whopping big 4wd utes, but only have a couple of off the shelf tool boxes on the back, and the...
Been thinking along the same lines. Does the forge pull out or do you use it where it is?
