Intro: Horseshoe Cord Holder

This horseshoe cord holder provides a simple but sturdy hook that can be used to hang many things.

A bent piece of metal welded across the hook will make a cord holder that will not kink the cord.

STEP 1: Materials

One used horseshoe

3x8x1/8" steel

STEP 2: Preparing the Horseshoe

Drill ¼" holes through one end of the horseshoe.

STEP 3: Bending the Horseshoe

Clamp the middle horseshoe in a vice so that it is sideways

Bend the part of the horseshoe that faces up to 90 degrees.

STEP 4: Spreading and Welding the Cord Holder

Open the bent section so that the sheet metal will fit between the two arms, then bend the steel plate into a ½ circle. Weld the curved section into the horseshoe and hang the horseshoe.

The concept is very good, but the execution would be difficult for most of us, unfortunately. But thanks for the idea; who knows....!
