HOW TO: Forging a Horse Head on Horseshoe

[@MeBigR3d]

The opposite end needs to be shaped into a tail. Awesome little project 👌

[@brysonalden5414]

This, in my humble opinion, is what tutorial videos should be modeled after. Excellent step-by-step instructions!

[@KjZiturKensCustomIron]

Thank you for the insight.

[@jonmcpherson4518]

Great work Ken! Just now gathering tools to get into Blacksmithing. I’m really liking your style making cool projects. Thank you for the ideas

[@leroiprice1586]

Thanks. You are different from a lot of people on You Tube who want to teach. You are able to do it!

[@KjZiturKensCustomIron]

[@KjZiturKensCustomIron]

Have fun!

[@ka2pbo]

Thanks Ken! Will definitely be giving this a try.

[@KjZiturKensCustomIron]

Have fun! Let us know how it goes!

[@ka2pbo]

Ken's Custom Iron Well it went great and was a lot of fun! I made a few of them . Unfortunately on the best one, I realized I used the stamped side of the shoe so now it has a "00" birthmark. As a bonus , I had to make an eye punch and an ear punch. And I got to do all of this work with my new KCI cross peen hammer ! What an awesome hammer ! Thanks again Ken!

Great video thanks Ken!

You bet! Thank you!

I'm a huge fan of smithing. This is the first time I have been priveleged enough to find your channel. I loved the instructional feel of this vid. I feel like I can follow the tutorial ( with a bit of practise, maybe a lot! ) I recently made my adult son a dragon head bottle opener, and I feel it is fairly good, thpough still a bit rough. My elder daughter saw it and wanted her own. She is a horse wrangler and wants something appropriate, so I will try to use one of the shoes she gave me to recreate this project and forge a bottle opener on the other end. Wish me luck, and thank you for a very clear and easily understandeable tutorial, teaching is an entirely different skill from the piece of art you just produced and I think you did just fine on both!

[@nickwren4653]

Thanks Ken for a great little project, as soon as my new forge gets here I will be doing this horse head. It will be my first thing I make as I have not done any Blacksmithing before, so wish me luck

[@MinecrafterD4R31]

You could make a seahorse pretty easy out of that too I think

[@KjZiturKensCustomIron]

Yes you sure could make a seahorse pretty easily. Good luck.

[@OldCowboy450]

Great video! Two questions, I have mules is it difficult to lengthen the ear, (I have tons of old shoes and could just experiment) How did you make your eye punch?

[@KjZiturKensCustomIron]

You can drill a small hole in the end of a rod and then grind away the material to shape the eye or you can go to kensiron.com and purchase one made from H13.......
