Putting Power Into Your Work: A Hall Of Fame farrier pulls from his experiences to offer advice on using power tools in shoeing

摘要

One of the things I like best about being a farrier is the independence I have in making decisions about how I do my work. Every farrier has a different viewpoint on how exactly to shoe his or her horses, and I value that perspective. Some farriers are minimalists and prefer using all hand tools, while others embrace technology to the max. The vast differences between all of us in the industry do create some strong opinions. There is an attitude among some traditionalists that some of us rely on technology too much and they have totally rejected electric tools.
