Tumbled a batch of horseshoes!!!

Tumbled a batch of horseshoes yesterday. I was cleaning out a cement mixer and they worked pretty good to get the old concrete out. Some of the horshoes were so crusty, lots had been through a fire. I am very happy with the way they turned out. Some are very unique!! There are a few mule shoes in there! The Cripple Creek mining district had an incredible equestrian population!!! I still have a couple more batches to do.

Look great! I love how they look different. I bet those blacksmiths could tell some stories LOL

No kidding, some of the shoes are extremely modified. I imagine they were very busy, compares with getting new tires nowadays.

I really like finding those old SMALL SIZED mule shoes , I have a few found in mines around here, sometime the tracks are still laid out inside those mines, but definetly not used for decades

Cement mixer worked I see, good plan.
I threw a bunch in the steel bin yesterday, along with the axe heads and all the other steel dug over the past few years.
Might as well turn rust into some $$$
