| I need some cotton combos 3'3-3'6 used is ok,I went to buy some yesterday but at $80 for a crappy kool koat I couldnt justify it.
And I need a performance halter/lead to fit a filly with a mediumish size head...Not to sure on size... _________________  http://cherrywoodminiatures.webs.com/ |

| Why dont you buy your combos from Minicraft? They are only $33.95

Aone from the forum here also makes performance halters I think... |

| Hey, Yeah I have some of those rugs but they are really only for the night before a show,I bought two just for paddock use and they had them shredded to bits within a week so need something a bit hardier. _________________  http://cherrywoodminiatures.webs.com/ |

| Your ponies must be tough on rugs then...
I've got some that I've been using 3 1/2 yeas (including on the stallions) & they are still perfect (althou faded)... No repairs yet...
I've got a couple of top quality double ripstop sets that you could have had (they are new), but they are too big for what you want. |

| I get all my ripstop combos made by Camelot Horse Rugs at Castlereagh and I won't buy anything else. He does Mini size combos for $35 (I haven't bought since last year so prices might have gone up buy a couple of dollars), and really you cannot go past the quality plus you know they are made in Australia and he can do them to order, so I usually get mine in Mini size rugs with a small pony/shetland size neck section, because you find with Minicraft/Weatherbeeta that the neck rug bit is often too short. As for performance halters, last year I bought a stack of rope performance halters in bulk from a MiniCraft supplier and was selling them on eBay. I sold most of the smaller ones, but I will look thru my stuff and see if I have any spares, coz I know I kept more than I will ever need lol.    _________________  |

| I was told it has to be 6ft long and without a snap/shackle. The western style rope ones are ideal.
I know you can't have the snap on them, but I am not sure if it HAS to be 6ft. _________________  |

| I just got some guidelines from the MH&PE and the lead length for trail is 6 feet minimum for jumping classes it is 8 feet minimum. _________________  http://cherrywoodminiatures.webs.com/ |

| Oh yeah Sharon is lovely to deal with, I get my fly masks from her coz stupid Roma don't make a size between Mini and Pony and most of my mares seem to fall in between the sizes. _________________  |
