    did the weld break or the rod itself? I use a 3/4 grade 8 bolt with the head welded on the inside after putting it through a 3/4 hole –

    great on the landing – and faster filing – they really dont cut when dull – best on bigger saws – you may want to put a bigger sprocket on – Scott Golden may want to chime in here –

    Wish I had the saw and energy to cut that much wood a day! 🙂

    Donn – Don’t take a chance on the wire – cut high and save yourself and the mill a lot of grief –

    I’ll chime in here – Shaft length depends on horse size – The width is also variable – Jim has nailed the connection – my phone is 207 890 7576 for those who want to talk about it as I find the internet difficult –

    I run pigeon wing and square no difference other than style – I do have a gelding that goes blinderless – he is a very steady horse and we have a strong trust – He likes to see what is going on and I’m comfortable letting him – I will say that a sudden change from seeing some to all may take getting used to –
    I had a mare rub her bridle and break it on a job a long way from home and the only spare in the trailer was a riding bridle – she went from blinders to none in ten minutes – It was interesting trying to keep her focused and relaxed – she could see it all and I think it was too much – after a day working with it she had a better understanding and realized that not everything was going to bite her –
