How to make 5 things from horseshoes

[@julianbrody6392]

Those would make great gifts. I will need to give making those a try with my powerarc welder.

[@MichaelLawing]

There are some fantastic ideas here, especially for someone looking to batch out gifts or craft show items. Thanks for sharing!

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Hi thanks Michael, yes they are good at craft shows I have sold quite a few. The batch in the video were prizes at a horse riding club dinner dance. I had to make 5 sets of each. Thanks for watching!

[@danielmartinez-cj5di]

That was my first thought too. Welding has become a bit of a hobby of mine but I would like to make some money with my everlast so that it can pay for itself

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Hi Daniel, you will sell these items at the right craft fair. They are easy to make and a good way to practice welding as the welding doesn’t have to be that exact. Find a farrier that will give you old horseshoes for free. Do not pay for them, most farriers will give you them for nothing. It’s a pain cleaning them but worth it. Here is another video of mine using horseshoes if you haven’t already seen it. These are good sellers before Christmas. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIbHiml3haytaLM Thanks for watching. Hope you make money!

That plug for Jimmy Diresta at the end👍 love his work ❤️

[@EamonWalshDIY]

He is the master...

[@jamiethomas4716]

Great ideas for gift ideas that I can make with my everlast welder this fall.

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thanks Jamie.

[@madeinsherwood4553]

Very simple but very cool, thanks for sharing.

[@mikecunningham7621]

Hi Barbie, I learned two great things from this video, Thanks! MIG welding for years it never occurred to me to knock off the spatter with a chisel! Duhhh! I have tended to grind it off with an air tool with sanding disk. Not really great as it scratches surfaces and sanding disks are expensive. Also the clear enamel will come in handy on smaller projects. I am following you and will look forward to more from you in the future! Mike in Dallas, Tx.

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Think you meant that comment for someone else Mike :-)

[@isaiahberg7335]

What amperage you welding on I’m new and I’m just curious

[@normagomez8023]

Hello, loved your work! I have zero experience with work like this. I would like to start crafting stuff like this. Would you care and inform me would machine would be good for a beginner or for small projects like this? & exactly what machines or materials I would need. Hope to hear from you.

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Hi Norma, thank you. In this video I used a stick welder. Stick welding is great for beginners because it's easy to learn, and very affordable. ... In contrast, MIG welding is faster and more efficient, and cleaner than stick welding. However, MIG machines are more complicated to set up and learn, and are also usually more expensive. You will also need a welding helmet and welding gloves. There are lots and lots of welding tutorials on KZbin you can watch. Hope that helps.

[@robp4711]

I love how you work free hand, no clamps. What settings are you using?

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thanks Rob, I cant remember it was a few years ago 😐

[@davidmanen5495]

Great idea for gifts! Gloves when welding unless your a big fan of burns and skin cancer.

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thanks David

[@kiffaj9982]

Mate,some good ideas came outta that vid. Keep up the good work digger.

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thank you Keith i will try.

[@tatilbury]

Nice ideas & good work. Where did you get all the horseshoes? Nice shout out to Jimmy @ the end.

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Ha thanks, well spotted. I got them from a local farrier, they are normally glad to get rid of them!

[@countryboylife5546]

Great video and thanks for the ideas.

[@solar_sailor9995]

Lmao 💯

[@danielchambers1958]

What rods are you using?

[@RicoSuave2780]

what is the green machine tool you used called? the one to cut the stuff and then u change to wire brush. thanks

[@EamonWalshDIY]

It is a 115mm angle grinder.

[@12345rolla]

Use truck bed liner rather than paint on iPad holder. Give a softer finish less likely to scratch iPad or furniture.

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thank you Lindell! Will have a look for that.

[@ironhorse19]

Great ideas thanks for sharing

[@randomrcprojects3754]

Simple cheap but I bet are very popular selling items to make profit

[@flhusa1]

add some rubber feet to the hot plate holder and the tablet holder. dollar store items

[@TheComentarista69]

Ese era un vino Chileno 120 de santa Rita 👍👍 Viva Chile mierda!!!

[@EamonWalshDIY]

😊😊

I enjoyed the video, good ideas.

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thanks Tony.

[@TheNuggetshooter]

Those are great!

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thank you

[@davewilliams355]

Mate that's fantastic. I'm thinking of getting into welding, is that what they call a stick welder? Are they cheap?

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Hi Dave, thanks. Yes ya can call them stick welders but the proper name is arc welder. The one I have is a SIP Inverter ARC welder and i think it cost me about €250-300 at the time. You can get much cheaper ones though I have seen some for around €100 and would be perfect for learning.

[@davewilliams355]

Cheers buddy .

[@julianbrody6392]

I've over in north america and I use a small format Everlast 140 welder. It welds above its weight class as its dual voltage. It's not the cheapest but buying a subpar welder is probably not the best experience you will have.

[@Thewrightstuff777]

I thought those were really cool

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thank you! Are you going to have a go making some?

[@Thewrightstuff777]

Eamon Walsh DIY oh yes I will be doing this!

[@snoopu2601]

Way cool ideas thank you

[@davewilliams355]

Eamon, someone told me that you can't weld cast iron, what are the shoes made of ?

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Hi Dave, the shoes are made from steel. RE: the cast iron, i think you can weld cast iron but is difficult to do. Here is a link to some vids i found kzbin.info?search_query=welding+cast+iron+with+arc+welder Hope that helps Dave. Ps you can also get aluminum shoes.

[@davewilliams355]

Cheers buddy

[@EamonWalshDIY]

No problem Dave anytime.

[@infinityanimationproductio691]

0:40 part looked like a huge anti-matter coruption wow

[@ianprososki6804]

a grinder and paint will make u the welder you aint

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Ha that's true Ian, luckily I do not claim to be one.

[@bkrjayce]

Behind every critic, lies a failed artist.

[@julissacastillo6534]

Muy buenas ideas para mi casa

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Gracias Julissa

"ABSOLUTELY SAFETY FIRST" !!!!

[@EamonWalshDIY]

👍

[@FrontierLegacy]

Dude, wear heavy welding gloves! Protect you hands.

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Will do :-)

[@bobbyscoggins5076]

Nice Job

[@vishalgopalsing3192]

Very creative

[@lachave7409]

Wow love it

[@mar-uc7ps]

Me gustan más las herraduras sin pintura,con su color natural en las piezas. Yo no hubiera pintado de negro al final el objeto creado.

[@thejester5617]

What electrodes did you use thanks and loved the video

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thanks you Jester. I used 3.2 mm general purpose rods.

[@leeeldredge1191]

The Jester I

[@guyh.4553]

Good ideas but WEAR GLOVES! Great way to tear up and burn your hands. BIG safety mistake!

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thanks for the tip Guy.

[@SnorrioK]

Too bad Diresta hasn't seen this to the end

[@handmade3681]

Get a guard for that grinder before you hurt yourself, and floces

[@dennis8445]

Thanks for sharing. Wear gloves next time it's too easy to rip open a finger. I never pick up a grinder with out putting on gloves.

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thanks Dennis.

[@waynerobinson2301]

Denise dumb fuck gloves cost money skin grows for free

[@TheFuelFreak]

Dennis its actually advised to not wear gloves when using rotary tools, besides a grinder will go through a finger glove or no glove.

[@dialednoutdoors5418]

Definitely do not wear gloves while grinding 😂😂but it's a good idea to wear gloves while welding next time

[@dennis8445]

Wayne Robinson you stupid idiot mind your own business which can't more than wiping your ass after you stick your fingers in it.

[@lonesurvivor450]

"SAFETY FIRST"

[@EamonWalshDIY]

True, I have learned a bit since this video came out. Thanks

[@normasuely2043]

Show 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@infinityanimationproductio691]

[@peterharris550]

Concern about your safety not wearing gloves 🤔

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thanks Peter, gloves are worn now.

[@joeoldskoolbeef]

No gloves and no guard on the grinder. Clever boy!!😩

[@EamonWalshDIY]

👍

[@evansullivan3455]

Dude its called wearing fucking welding gloves

[@EamonWalshDIY]

Thanks Evan.

[@queencythia4845]

You need to set an example and wear the proper safety gear! Gloves at all times!

[@TheAndyJBall]

why not turn them back into horseshoes.......the christmas present you never want to receive fromthe brother in law you don't want

[@eugeneholgate9942]
