    Good morning, I'm from Brazil, would you be able to provide the mold that you use to start making the spur, thanks

      Well see in the video… i dont use a mold. Just draw your spur band out on paper. Then draw one for the shank and then the rowell.

      @@timheller5929 the lengths i can send you for women, men, and kids. Width of bands depends on you. 3/4”, 1”, 1-1/8”, 1-1/4” are all widths i have used. Mens bands are generally 8.5” tip to tip, but can vary…,Slots can be figured by making your swingers and then making slots a bit wider. Holes can also be figured that way by using your swingers as a pattern for placement of holes. Everybody makes spurs a little different. My measurements are how i do mine, but not necessarily in every spur. It varies. Some guys want their spurs built exactly like a favorite pair they have. When thats the case, i measure that pair out and build them the same. Im just trying to show the general method here of building spurs. Thank you for your interests. !

    How long are the bands

    • @JohnNordDesigns
      @JohnNordDesigns  2 роки тому

      Mens range from 8.5” to 9” long… womens range from 7.5” to 8”. I usually measure their boot by putting a wire around it and then measuring length of that wire.
