PVC sounds interesting and the larger pipe can be cut with a slight angle then somehow attach to an old skate last -- the brain wheels are turning -- hope they go somewhere and don't stuck in a rut ...

A lot lighter and easier to cut and put together than real metal. But the hooves must be sturdy. Go check out how skates or skis are kept on one's feet and then the hooves themselves can be built up in layers from all sorts of material. What do they make soles out of these days anyway? (wood is heavy and breaks). Check your local flooring dept. Hell check all round Lowe's! Ask everyone in construction. You never know where the right stuff will pop up. Of course you don't have to do the original costumes. You could start from scratch and with the director and scene designer come up with a whole new and clever way to do it. **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
