Quick Guestion On Bargrounders

[rickeyfro]

If you Sheridan style guys were to purchase one set of bargrounders from Barry King what size would you go with? Really hard to tell any difference from the catalog or websiite pics.

Rickyfro,

hard to say which size you should get... it really depends on the size of flowers you are carving. If you are carving small flower and using larger grounders, you'll have problems getting them into the tight corners where stickers converge with vines, etc... If your carving large flowers and using small grounders, you'll be backgrounding all day long.

I'd say your best bet is to decide what diameter of flower you think you'll be carving the most and call Barry and get his opinion on it.

Darcy's right, Rickey, the size of the bar grounder is completely decided by the patten. Most recently I have been using a #25 set on my work and am going to try a #20 which I just bought in Wickenburg. These are the small side and are defintely harder to run than a #30 or #35, which are a little too large for my current patterns.

Hope this helps...
