Spent 3 hours trying to nail a tricky hind shoe on a nervous mare before I realized my anvil was sitting on a slightly uneven surface

It took me forever to figure out why my shoe kept sitting crooked, and turns out my anvil was off by about a quarter inch on one leg - has anyone else wasted time chasing a problem that turned out to be something dumb like that?

Ever just stop and level everything from scratch? I wasted a whole morning once on a fence post that kept racking - leveled the ground under the base plate and it went smooth after that. Sometimes you gotta step back and check the simple stuff first, saves hours of frustration.

Funny how the smallest things throw everything off.
