    Tell me about clippers

    Give a bath before you clip. Your blades will last longer. I bath one day then clip the next day .

    Pony Express - van conversion

    It folds in half length wise. Then has a pin i drop in at the top to keep it in place. I take it off after loading. The ramp was a wheelchair ramp tappered at the top. A friend that works on horse trailers did the welding.

    I put one mini in the back and 1 mini between the doors. 5x8 trailer for the carts. I never use the back doors. Horses load from the side door. Both minis 33 1/2 in. tall.

    At 67 I decided to down size EVERYTHING!!! Sold my 1988 F-250 with extended cab and full size bed. 16 foot Gooseneck trailer. LOL I thought it was over kill for my 2 minis. LOL Backing up isn't hard. Just practice, practice, practice.

    Trailering a cart

    You're smart, you can figure it out! Think ramps. I bought the ends then added the wood. You can push your cart backwards up the ramps then remove the ramps and put them where the cart is. Just a thought.

    Roadster cart

    Beautiful job!! I've redone carts before but I'm a little perplexed about how to do the wooded parts. I was under the impression that you should never paint the wood. I do know that wood needs to breath.

    Roadster cart

    Great idea! It would be a lot cheaper... lol..The cart has wooden shafts and a few other parts. Should I stain them black? I'll paint the metal parts black. I'm not sure if they were painted or stained before.

    Roadster cart

    Good idea!!! Now to figure out who's going to pay for it to be done! lol I just love black and Burgundy together. I'll shop around and see who can do pinstripping. I can paint the cart myself. Thanks for the great ideas!!!

    Roadster cart

    I bought this little roadster cart and would love to fix it up. The shafts and upper part is wood. Thinking of painting the wooden parts black and burgundy on the bottom. Trying to find ideas for the seat. Thank you

    And easy! If I'm taking just 1 he is put between the doors and the comes through the back with the shafts hanging out the back. Then I strap the doors shut. I put the ramp back there too because my minis are wooseys and would just jump in!!! lol

    I did the same thing but more simple. I bought a Chevy City Express. Hauls my 2 minis. 1 in the back and then 1 between the doors. I don't use the back door. Bought a trailer to haul my carts.

    beet pulp

    I soak my minis feed during cold weather, they are pellets, they turn into a mash. I use a small coffee container to soak it in, then I strain it thru a mesh strainer I get at the dollar store. I would guess the beet pulp pellets would do the same and turn to mush.
