Horse was noticeably more comfortable after shoeing. Cautiously optimistic! More pics in album. http://horseshoes.com/forums/album.php?albumid=186 Attachments: Clog%20010_5113.jpg (50KB)

Bradley-1stChoice OFFLINE Master Posts: 1965 Thank you received: 2 Karma: 1	Nice looking work Jay !!! A couple of questions, as I have never applied such a package . . . Did you nail the shoe to the clog, from the foot surface into the clog ??? If so, how did you deal with the nail heads ???? Opps, now I'm thinking you screwed them on ??? Was there enough sole pressure relief built into the shoe for this foot ??? Thanks for showing your work.

Jay Mickle OFFLINE Very Senior Member Posts: 849 Thank you received: 2 Karma: 0	Bradley If you are referring to the egg bar shoe shown in the album, it was just temporarily clamped to apply constant, even pressure to the Sigafoos III cuff while the Equibond glue set. The cuff has a urethane rimpad that provided sole relief where needed. From about the tip of the frog back cavity was packed with soft silicone impression material.

Thanks Jay
For clarifying, I didn't realize about the cuff.

I also went to http://www.soundhorse.com/app3/app.htm
and got the low-down.

Again Nice work !!!

reillyshoe OFFLINE Master Posts: 2690 Thank you received: 7 Karma: 4	At least consider the possibility that the horse might have deformed the pad into a wedge because that was a more comfortable arrangment for that foot.

This is a technique I have been using lately on both shod and unshod horses. I put a handful of impression material on the sole and apply Elasticon to hold it in place. After it is secured with the tape, I put a domed plate on the bottom, and hold this temporarily in place with stretch wrap. After the impression material has set, I remove the plate and leave the inner tape in place. With a Sigafoos shoe, the rim pad is concave enough to hold it in place without the tape.

Brilliant!
