I can't really add much but I made a pen holder out of a couple of short 2x2 tubing cutoffs and a piece of 1/4 plate that I flap disced and welded up. Not really blacksmithing but it looks like industrial art and doubles as a paper weight too.

I don't remember where I read it but I seem to remember reading somewhere that horse shoes were only good luck if it was a 7 hole punched one that fell off of a horse at a crossroads. There also seems to be a disagreement over whether you should hang them up or down to either trap or pour luck out.

A lost shoe must only be lucky for the finder. Can't see how it would be for the rider!
