si. io ho copiato questo ferro da una fotografia pubblicata da Chris o Danvers non ricordo bene chi lo ha forgiato. Mi incuriosiva molto e ho voluto provare a farlo. Mi farebbe piacere il prossimo anno venire con un mio amico a trovarvi e provare a forgiare con voi, magari in qualche gara dove siamo ammessi anche noi ( ovviamente per le nostre capacità) per noi sarebbe un grande onore avere un vostro giudizio.

Vikki Kubilius Fortier Jeremy Scudder, Cornell Farrier Student: The American Farrier's Team hands-on clinic, I attended last weekend in NY was very helpful to me in establishing proper body postion around the anvil, hammering precision, establishing more accurate nail hole position when building shoes and excellent systemaric way for fitting... shoes! What I really found was the one-on-one help from the AFT members was not intimidating, just very effective and encouraging.

These are hands on clinics for the working farrier, focusing on each individual's specific forging needs. A good opportunity to to focus on CF and CJF testing requirements!
