Eileen,

I use the large industrial strength Stewart 'Clipmaster' clippers. Pretty
hefty, but they do the job, horse, after horse. My record is 6 in one
day, just major pre-show trimming 2 weeks before the big day. To keep the
blades sharper longer, I clean them after each use with the air
compressor, and oil the blades before, during and after use. We also have
a little set of Wahl clippers that are rechargeable + are good for doing
finish work. I haven't body or trace clipped a horse in years, and i
don't miss it at all. What a chore...don't even get me started about
where 1/2 of all that clipped hair ends up either!

Good luck and give Jane a hug for me!

  Anyone on the list give their Fjords a trace or full body clip? My
  clippers, which have always worked fine on my Appys, just roll over
  and play dead with the thick Fjord pelt. Anyone have a recommendation
  for clippers that are built Fjord tough?
