Bit Making - How to Make Handmade Horse Bits Part 1

Bit Making - How to Make Handmade Horse Bits Part 1. This is part one of a series of bit making clips that show how to make a loose jaw roping horse bit. I start off by showing you the cardboard drawing of the custom bit and describe the process off grinding out the shank bodies using an abrasive cut-off wheel on a Baldor number 114 buffer. I also show you the handmade 1" X 1/4" steel rings that will be welded to the top and bottom of the bit shanks.

For welding I use a Miller 250 DX tig welder that I purchased preowned and it really does a great job. Stay tuned for the next clips I think you will really get a kick out of the process I go through to make these handmade horse bits.
