3D Printed HORSESHOE | Future for horses?

[@sah57]

These horses are calm, cool and gentle, which is easy to work with. You are brilliant. I wish you success. Thank you for sufficient valuable information

[@AlexRidgewayFarrier]

Wow that's very kind of you. Yes these horses are beautiful and stand so well.

Loved seeing the 3 d hoof pads used here, would be great to see how this horses feet progressed.

[@keenobservations3050]

Absolutely amazing how technology is helping our four legged friends

[@bobbiemooser7417]

Brilliant idea.

[@somerandomchannel382]

Ideas are good But they NEED research. It might be easier for a human to glue shoes to their feet. But at what cost? How will the feet react over time? This sort of things needs to be considered before you use horses as lab rats.

[@ebutuoy4315]

Are you concerned about the cast changing the angle? Also what do you do for taking care of your back and body? Thanks

[@jakekelton6526]

Can I ask where you can buy the casting material?

[@zantwhite3841]

Sorry, I meant to say where can a Farrier purchase this 3-D pad with the shoe?

[@chriskirk4213]

Nice work I love the 3D printed pads!!

[@AlphaCharlieFour]

What's the print material?

[@zantwhite3841]

Where can I share your purchase this 3-D horseshoe with pad?

[@johnsweda2999]

what about using thick honey or canova honey and beeswax to seal as a treatment for the hoof damage should work alright What's that impregnated bandage that hardens called

[@charliesabre4328]

Why the cast?

[@kevintos9639]

Great job

[@user-ol7bq4ly1l]

Alex, im a farrier in the US who just got a decent 3d printer. Im wondering, do you have files for glue on foal cuffs i could copy? I have limited experience scanning and designing models.

[@Shadeskast]

Very nice. Is the horse on stall rest or in a work program? Does the 3D pad hold up to regular riding?

[@jayrodathome]

How long before Nike gets into the horse shoe business and they start banning Nike horse shoes from the racing track?

[@CARRJ142]

Another Great Video.

Vocês estão de parabéns muito top

Isn't using copper sulfate without gloves and eye protection dangerous/risky? Stay safe... beautiful work! 💕

[@tracyrain4941]

Question...why does the horse front leg go through the human legs and the horse back leg go over the human leg? Just really curious 😊

[@ElysetheEevee]

I would assume it probably has to do with how the legs bend (horse) as well as the level of comfort for the horse when holding their legs.

[@MrGamwi]

I will add, as a farrier, that I invite you to take the hind leg through your legs and if your still alive, you will understand why -don't do that. It is a question of security before a question of comfort for both of the horse and the farrier :)

[@user-ol7bq4ly1l]

@@MrGamwi i will also add that the recirocal apparatus would make it very difficult to trim!

[@ElectricHorseman66]

The result looks great but on abrasive surfaces the cast will be worn rather quickly and then everything will fall apart. I have used casting myself and the casting couldn't resist abrasion at the heel and break over.

[@skstrang1]

I have used casting material and in a day or two, just with turn out, the casting wears off completely especially on the toe. Love that You search always for new ideas to help our equine friends! I hope that one day every horse can have a 3D printed shoe that’s affordable. Thanks for all the info that helps the rest of us that are searching!

[@BEZ4Ever]

I'm guessing, that this didn't hold up very well" since there is no update videos...

[@emilythomas3477]

Would that not cause the hoof to rot cause it will suffocate it, like a human nail with fake nails it causes them to weaken 🤔

[@joyadeceren]

This is a Good question, I hope he replies it.

[@deanwitt7903]

It’s not something you would want to do for any great length of time .

[@ElysetheEevee]

He did say you can't keep them on for long. I assume this is one reason why. Very interested to know though!

[@lauralauren6432]

@@ElysetheEevee HE told You. It stops The hoofs expansion. Its a temporary hoof aid until it recover.

[@edr9362]

would be great if these were on your sales page would be even better if you would respond to your pages e mail ,,,,,,,,,

[@1christina635]

Still need to address how the horse became crippled. That is the solution not a false temporary hoof.

[@leeweaver2743]

you said you were not going to use nails, then you promptly used 2 nails.

[@jackbelarus6458]

whenever they start making 3d printers that can heat up and use steel, or honestly even Iron, this will become commonplace. That being said, we should treat smithing horseshoes like a religion so it's not lost - because that's why the ancients made stuff into trade/religions in order to create a failsafe. It may be cheaper to print one, but just in case something with the earth changes and we can't make circuitry anymore because of electromagnetic field bullshit - we should still keep the videos and methods sacred on how to make this stuff - that even goes for even carburetors, man.

[@carpathianken]

With the ability to easily weld/braze non ferrous metals like aluminium in propane forges it's already made 3d printing shoes obsolete & impractical. Especially for horses like these with acute & chronic lamintic problems that you want the tension off the laminae & support under the bony column immediately while you're there with the veterinary surgeon working off their radiographic images to stop any further damage. You don't want to be telling the horseowner & the vet, "I'll be back in 3 days when my 3d printer has printed the shoes."

£ 1000 per shoeing. Nice.
