I want to try one with my girl, but I'm not capable of building one. I saw a really neat metal one at the show and I figure they must buy them from somewhere. Any ideas?
If you build it, it might be a real one....If I build it, it will be a vet bill. And maybe a trip to the er for me besides. I have just enough carpentry ability to be able to hammer a loose nail back in. Maybe.@LostandFound, if you build it, it IS a real one!
When I built my own, I found I needed to place some strips of carpet on the plywood to help prevent slipping. Only about 2" wide, and 6-8 per 8' long sheet.
You don't need a driving bridle with blinders to get started. A simple headstall with a well fitting bit is all you need.Well, I guess it's good, but I really expected fireworks. Or at least a challenge. We have messed around with the halter already, and I have had her harnessed and pulling poles. Just need a "real" bridle to get her used to the blinders and prevent her from putting her little head down and munching grass. There are some inexpensive ones out there it's just not in the budget for a bit.
We can hardly wait to see picturesI finally got a real teeter totter! It's definitely not the same as a pallet on a pole. It moves much more and it's narrow. Which is just perfect because it's always narrow at the shows. I can't wait to play on it.
