Teebs,
The possibilities are endless. Use the shoes as if they were just a piece of iron and heat and hammer any way you want them. you can make candle holders, hoof picks, shoe horns, just about anything

have seen a couple of these. it is as stated earlier from a wheel turning but the engine not going anywhere. usually when this happens some people get pretty upset and the person that caused it gets some time off with no pay.

i went last year for the first time but cant make it this year because of family obligations :(
ptree, bad decription, too many guys like you, bibs and grey hair :)

the pads for the heavier machines are completely separate from the rest of the floor. and no heat lines near them, shouldnt be a problem at all. i helped put the pads in.

i would line it and use it. nice catch. cant tell you how old it is but is most likely not a teenager anymore. i had one like that that i carried in my truck when i was shoeing horses in the 70s.

Sorry thats not possible any longer. I gave the lamp to a friend that is battling breast cancer while she was at the fair. just one more thing to think about in the future. thanks

this is the first time I have entered a competition. got a second and i am fine with that. one of the problems that i spotted after it was over is that the lamp shade covers up the hand forged peice that i put on it. i used a 3/16 x 1 flat bar, put a twist in it and put a fishtail scroll on the end. the hole for the lamp assembly was hot punched. i try to incorporate a hand forged piece in all of my lamps. any comments, have at it.

I call mine "The Spotted Horse Smithy, Lake Effect Forge".
Spotted Horse smithy because I can look out the window of my shop and see my daughter's 30 year old appaloosa gelding in a pasture and Lake effect forge because I live 4 miles from the shore of Lake ontario and we get a lot of lake effect snow.

couldnt understand a word of it but they can sure put stuff together pretty fast.
thanks frosty

I just talked with Dan on the chat page tonight. He has had a setback in that they have found a new tumor on his spine. He starts radiation next week. It is of a serious nature in that he could get parrilised from the shouldrs down in his words. So I reckon we keep him in out thoughts and prayers.

welcome to the group. if you check the list at the end of the forums there is a listing for groups from oz. your best bet would be to hook up with the closest one. that way you have mentors right there that help you.

well right off the bat, my wife accused me of watching ballet because of the sound track :unsure:
was a very interesting video. i really liked how there was no wasted motion there, every movement had a reason and if was just great to watch.
