Very good trimming Tomas!!! You did perfectly with cow number 3, and yes... you want it to dry out! Hoof horn naturally sheds away from itself as it dries out (thats what the white powdery stuff you sometimes see is), that means that all blocks which are only glued on the sole of the hoof will eventually fall off, some farms we have, have AWESOME block retention some farms the blocks don't stay on so long - usually farms with a lot of slats lose blocks more quickly than anyone would like. The best ways to get blocks to stay on for a LOT longer are by nailing them on (that's how I trained to do it) or by using a "shoe" style block ... where the block actually encapsulates the cow's toe and therefore is glued on all sides and isn't affected by the sole hoof horn shedding away 😀 Awesome vid

So that thing on the end of the glue gun is called a static mixing nozzle and it obviously mixes the glue without introducing air into the mixture always a bonus. Each little crossover inside the nozzle is all an element and most of the nozzles have a minimum amount of elements. They are sized for the viscosity of the adhesive, max flow rate and how long it should be mixed for. All in all probably could with less but it's down to making sure the product doesn't fail what would you rather waste a bit of glue or fins all your blocks falling off. Planes are glued together with similar mixing nozzles. That where this technology has come from

@jldisme 10 месяцев назад

Graeme almost never washes up the hoof beforehand because it takes forever, and he wants the cow to spend as little time in the crush as possible. Plus the grinder takes off the muck anyway. You are a hoof-trimming rock star, Tom! Don't let anybody tell you otherwise. The Hoof TP

@elizabethclaiborne6461 10 месяцев назад

Graham does blocks just a bit differently, that may affect glue performance. Glue - of any sort - is persnickety and wants to be applied just so. Put the glue on the hoof and let a nice fat layer of it sit between hoof and block.

@Hill_Walker 10 месяцев назад

I remember when GP last visited, he said he used an alcohol wash. This'll evaporate much faster than water, might help with block retention when a wash is used Although washing is only really for the camera normally, as it rarely helps the trim.

@djborud 10 месяцев назад

The Hoof GP trained you well! Nice work Tom!

@busch1004 10 месяцев назад

When applying the blocks, don’t press them hard against the hoof. There should be a couple of millimeters of glue between the block and the hoof. It’s the glue that sticks, and maybe you push all the glue out:) try to look at the blocks that come off, if you find them. Does the glue stick to the block or to the hoof. And always let the glue cure until it stops heating, but I’m sure you know that:) Great videos by the way👌

@JustMeZero988 10 месяцев назад

That bit about it squeezing all the glue out does make sense to me, so that might be Tom's secret weapon now for keeping them on by not expelling all the glue.

@archiecairns2731 10 месяцев назад

Tom with all the building work going on there is going to be lots of small sharp fragments of concrete around the farm yard. That can't be good for your cows. Get that brush from Olly and sweep the yard and I am pretty sure the hoof problems will greatly reduce.

@peterwardle572 10 месяцев назад

Tom , I work for an adhesives company and I understand that the length of the mixer tube is the number of mixer elements, certain adhesives need more mixing than others, hence longer tube. But could they have more mixing steps in a shorter tube, I guess yes if they can make enough to cover the cost, a big question.

@Esther.B7520 10 месяцев назад

Saw you limping then you said your foot hurts... The first thing I thought was “maybe you need a block on too!” Lol. It was very interesting seeing how you block part of the hoof to help the part that is hurt! Thanks for showing us that! Will the collars let you know of an uneven gait? You had said one of the hoof issue cows was really thin. Was that the one that just had a calf? Why might a cow be very thin? Most cows are boney along their back toward the end aren’t they? It was neat to see you taking care of your ladies… you are always on the lookout for issues aren’t you? I am sure your dad has taught you everything he knows. Now together you are going forward with new technology! I really enjoyed this video! Thanks! ❤️😎👋🏻🇨🇦

@patpierce4854 10 месяцев назад

From watching the Hoof GP as well as TEC TV, the Midwestern Hoof Trimmer, and the Female Hoof Trimmer, I noticed one major difference. It seems the hoof trimmers will all make sure the hoof that will get the block, is completely level before they model the inside curve. It seems with the way your crush holds a hoof, that it’s difficult to see if the walking surface is actually level. If the walking surface has high or low spots, that will affect how well the glue holds over time, being thick in the low spots and lots thinner in the high spots. Glad to see how well you know each of your cows, and attend to their needs.🐄❤️

Don't forget you've also had 6 months of them using the bale and having to do a couple of tight(ish) turns to get in and the ramps up/down which is going to cause increase pressures on different parts of their feet which may be why you've had a couple more issues. Also - Hoof GP doesn't even wash all the feet, only those that he feels he needs to wash them to be able to see the problem.

Tom we went to nail less shoes on our horses years ago, when we adhere the shoe to the hoof we wrap the narrow shrink wrap used in packaging on the hoof to hold the shoes in place, when the horse places weight on it the shoe stays in place until the glue sets then we cut it off and the shoe lasts much longer. we use VetTech epoxy......full length tube idiot proofs the mixing process

Think the only thing you maybe should do differently is apply the glue straight onto the cows hoof straight after you have had the blowtorch and maybe bit more glue .

@graememckay9972 10 месяцев назад

Hoof GP has said many times he only washes the feet for viewer benefit as it doesn't serve any other purpose. The feet are going back onto the surface they came off. The length of tip makes a bigger difference for mixing than you realise. You missed a "that's what she said" with that one.

@bobbob2659 10 месяцев назад

@Michael-8903 10 месяцев назад

I usually make several cuts with the knife before gluing. Maybe the glue will grip the hoof better then. We have blocks that sit for 4 months until the next triming and those that fall off after 2 weeks. I think the cows maby do a hard turn and tear the block off 🤷

Don’t use the first bit of resin through the tip! I do a lot of bolt installation for rope access and we use very similar resins and guns. Often times with two part resins the first little bit that comes out won’t be quite the right ratio it’s just down to how it’s manufactured one side might not come out at exactly the same time. Just squirt the first bit out onto something until the colour is nice and even then apply it to the block.
