Opis:

The video shows how it is made a horseshoe and how it is place on the horse's foot.

First, the blacksmith takes a piece of iron  and put it into the fire. He is waiting for the temperature to get to 1200 degrees, to be able to work it. The piece of iron is removed from the fire and the blacksmith begins to beat it. He putting it inside the fire once more and he beat the metal again and bend it until  takes the form of a horseshoe.
