Pancho07 Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 I finally had the chance to get back to the forge yesterday and later today after being too busy to the last couple weeks, this is what I came up with. I didn't add any details yet, just the rough shaping but I don't think this is too bad for a first attempt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daswulf Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Not bad for a first attempt. My first attempt reforging a horseshoe into a heart resulted in me burning it in half. Some chisel work and your set. Only thing I see is maybe draw down on the necks a little more. And bend the inner horse head down a lil more and the upper one in more for a little more heart shape.

jmccustomknives Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Yeah, check out those vids. They take the guesswork out of the process. After watching just one I was able to make a very nice (for the first) one. by the forth it was perfected, at least by my piddly standards.

Pancho07 Posted February 24, 2016 Author Share Posted February 24, 2016 Chandler is who I got the idea from, should have watched them again before I started. The second one turned out better, didn't get a pic of it today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
