Just made my mother one yesterday. Thanks for the great idea for a birthday present for her. It's very simple to weld up. I used rustoleum self etching primer and a colored touch up paint made by duplicolor. Ran out of time/weather to clear coat it. I am just a beginner. Bought my welder for one reason, had a rusty hole that needed to be fixed on my car. But I didn't want the wire to go bad. So I ended up fixing my front porch hand railing. Made a basket candle holder out of 1/2 inch wide 1/8 inch thick 4062BC steel from tractor supply. Now I've got this one notched off my belt.
Discovered your site via a Welding Tips and Tricks podcast. Fascinating story. Well done and congratulations on your success. I hope to give this a try and look forward to watching more of your videos.
I would love to make 3 of these are give them to 3 hard working ladies at our hospital here in smooth rock falls Ontario Canada. Thanks barb for the great idea and project. Cheers hon.
Great job Barbie,,,One thing I found when I was doing production line welding for some Precise projects years ago. There is a cleaning product called "Fantastic"..it's like 409. If you spray your project just before welding,,all the "Beads". either roll off or you can brush them off with your gloved hand. Good artistry. Like it. Keep it up,,,Herman
What stuff do you make? Do you have a website or social media you’re willing to share with me? I love artists creativity and love to discover new favorite artists I can support!!
BarbieTheWelder You sure like horse shoes. You are not hoofing around with them that's for sure. Great ideas and that's why I bought your book ;-) In my shop, I have 12 welders (Tig Stick and Mig) 5 Plasma cutters and a CNC plasma table. I am running out of room in my shop. I do this as a hobby and maybe went a little overboard (so I am told) :-)
I've made 2 of these 1 with all #2 shoes with the glass holders cut & 1 with #2's & #00 for the glass holders bent together in a vise & they did bend slightly at the round end, as well as about 8 other projects since I got your book, in fact I used the last 40 shoes I got up. Tried something today some might find interesting? I had ground a weld down with flap disk that was shiny compared to the grey color & put some etching solution on with a small brush for about 20 minutes & it darkens it. I use etching solution on some of my knife blades I make. You make a design with nail polish, let dry then dip the solution in plastic container, I usually go about a 1/2 hour, but the longer the darker , rinse with water, clean polish off with acetone. If you haven't tried it especially someone as creative as Barbie might be able to add this effect to your creations. :-) Can get etching solution at Radio Shack I think its around $12
You're very welcome! Hope I was clear should have read "dip in the solution", can also experiment with a brush different ways or like a relief carving. :-)
Lol it’s one I keep in my shop because I’ve made a few wine racks. I didn’t even drink that one when it was full! I like Red Cat wine but mostly I love beer!🍻
Very creative.. you want to cut your overhead dramatically.. """learn how to oxy-acetylene braze!!!.. it's on the mental arts not structural you don't need gas and solid wire innershield whatever..your beautiful your stuff is beautiful this is just an objective opinion.."BRAZE"
I use pony horseshoes to hold the wine glasses. The glasses can sit upright or upside down.
Later on I found the pony shoes!!! Happy welding my friend!
great project thanks
Thank you so much!☺️
The angle iron trick to hold the shoe upright is genius, just solved a huge problem for me!
Thank you..
I’m deeply honored!🥰❤️🔥👩🏻🏭

Ive heard of guys using PAM cooking spray. Never used so I don't know.
Cool concept and worth a try 🤷🏻♀️
Well done as always!!!!
Thank you kindly for your continued support!!
Good stuff Barbie, I use those same shoes for blacksmithing projects. They are cheap, and good quality.
What stuff do you make? Do you have a website or social media you’re willing to share with me? I love artists creativity and love to discover new favorite artists I can support!!
Good teacher!

Amazon!! I buy 20 pair at a time!
amzn.to/4cdxWkW
So far, I haven’t been able to find that level. Could you please comment on the name brand! Thanks Barbie!
Love your channel!
The digital level?
@@BarbieTheWelder Yeah. I didn’t realize they could be set to zero. I found a couple on Amazon, thanks!
Hey, sehr schönes Video vielen Dank dafür 😊. Die wasserwaage ist super wo gibt die die zu kaufen?. Vg Reiner
Thank you so much! I don’t make these any more but I have taught many people how to create beautiful art like this that you can find on Etsy!
Do you clean the horseshoes to bare metal for the welding?
YES!🤩
Now on my lists is to make one for in my frits to hold a six pack
Muito bom
Thank you

wir haben das nicht gewusst
What's your wire feeder speed and voltage when welding on the horse shoe s
My machine is set for material thickness
Are you using flux core or argon?
Thanks for sharing your projects!
How's the dragon?
I am using 75/25 the dragon sits and waits.
This time I will use woodprix instructions to make it.
👍👍💞💞💞💞💞🌹🌹🌹🌹
