bullmoosepaddles Report post Posted July 30, 2019 These are beautifully designed and executed. It does break my heart to think their first use will have them wrestling the south end of a north facing horse. Thank you as always for the inspiration.

oltoot Report post Posted July 30, 2019 Bien hecho! The only observation I would add is that thru~20 years of use on mine I ended up with 4 nail magnets spaced around for different feet and ended up using them all about equally, and I would also suggest small "drain" holes at the bottom of each one of the molded nipper pockets Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
