David_wigren Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 This is without question the hardest shoe that I've done any damage to. The shoe was from the fbbc horseshoe sample pack that john sent back in mid spring 08. I'm trying to plow through the shoes one after the other, admitting though that some of the shoes will take a couple of years to bend, if I ever bend them. This bend was surely interesting because of its size. I had problems finding effective angles with it. After I got it to this point of 40 degrees, the normal horseshoe kink on the side of the leg got out of reach. But I'll work it out somehow. I got a video of this attempt and I might post it on youtube tomorrow. But for now I've just got some pics http://www.gripboard.com/index.php?autocom...si&img=8421 http://www.gripboard.com/index.php?autocom...si&img=8422 http://www.gripboard.com/index.php?autocom...si&img=8423 Hopefully this will be an incentive to the other horseshoe benders on the board to start hitting the shoe's hard again.

MalachiMcMullen Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I concede David. You are the better shoe bender now. Despite at least a dozen solid attempts I have never, NOT ONCE, put a wobble in that shoe. :bow :bow :bow :bow :bow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gumpster Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Wow! That's a huge shoe. I'm clueless on horseshoes but, is this the kind of thing Pat and Chris Rider can finish off at 180deg? Very impressive David. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
