I am an avid list lurker - today I spent all day at the barn with Henry, my 4
year old Fjord gelding. We did lots of stuff, ending with a nice ride in the
raspberry field. The garage sale balloons were a good experience, and the kid
on the bike - who warned me he was coming  - I just bought a stock trailer,
but feel it is height challenged - 6'5 - Henry is probably 15 hands, and
everyone is telling me he will bump his head.don't want that, so its for
sale, after I put a new floor, wiring, etc..but I don't want this post to
sound like a garage sale SO I'll just tell you about the Meadowbrook, as it is
a screaming deal:I have had it for a couple of years, and since I don't use
it...

  Genie,
  
  Thanks.  I will have my daughter Claire ask Marcy.  She is at Briar Hill
  now.   We will be going up there in a few weeks so I probably could  stop
in
  Bennington.  I have also asked Claire to have Marcy try my Passier on
Fjiona
  and see how the fit is.  If she thinks it can be reflocked I may try that.
  Claire told me it would not fit.  Yesterday I found out she hasn't tried it
  yet.  I am sure it is because Marcy has her very busy.

  Hi Lisa,
  We have several saddles that you can try when you come to pick up Fiona.
  We keep close to two dozen saddles (all purpose, dressage, close
  contact, trail, Western) as no two Fjords are exactly alike and Saddle
  fit/comfort is absolutely essential to the training of a horse. (we also
  train those brown horses with funny backs)
  Miss Fiona has an unusual Fjord back so don't rush out and but a 36 cm
  tree! She is not very wide for a Fjord and has prominent withers! Her
  back is not flat - table top like many Fjordies. Currently her back is
  not one that would be appropriate for a treeless saddle, in my opinion.
  I find the treeless can put pressure on the withers even with padding.
  (We have three different kinds you can check out while you are here).
  We currently have Fiona in a Wintec, all purpose, Cair panels, MW tree.
  I would anticipate as she is worked more, her back will develop more
  muscle and she will need a wider tree. Already her back has changed some.
  I like the Cair panels and the flexibility of the changeable gullet of
  the new Wintecs. Although the saddles don't fit everybody in the barn
  (doesn't work as well on a shorter backed horse) They are a nice saddle
  at a reasonable price. If you prefer leather, the Bates have the same
  panels and changeable gullets, but are pricier.
  I'll most certainly try your Passier. And if the Passier is a close fit,
  I can arrange for a saddle fitter to come before Fiona leaves, if you
  like. (We have a Combined Driving Clinic here this week end and yes,
  both Claire and I are pretty busy!). We don't like to send horses home
  with out being sure their equipment - saddles, bit, harness, cart, etc.
  are safe and comfortable.  We are committed to horses going home safe,
  comfortable and happy and happy owners, too. Of course, I hope you're
  planning on a couple of lessons before you head home, so that you are
  comfortable with how she has been trained.
  As for bits, Fiona is so far, most happy in a Myler comfort snaffle. (I
  may try several bits over the course of training a horse to find what
  they are most comfortable in, gives clear communication and the horse
  can stay soft) .

  Happy Fjording

Hi Michael,

well, I think you have your Karen's mixed up..but while  have you here, I
can direct you to a neat, economical cart that is NOT a M.B.

It is a version of a road cart, made by Kurt Barnes, KG Enterprises,
Fallon, Nv.

I had a modified one built for training andlowewr level CDE that I am
VERY happy with. Sturdy, attractive, easy to balance, and it cost just
under $1800. Course I picked it up as i live about an hour away, but
still, excellent value for your money.

I hate M.B.s for all the reasons folks talk about, but primarily the
awful balance, and weight of too much wood.

Please consider bailing out as a last resort, in danger of losing your 
life.  You and your horse will generally have a better outcome if you can 
stay in the carriage and provide guidance.




If you are real new to driving, I would start out with an easy entry cart.
They are much easier to bail out of if necessary.


That being said, I too prefer the easy entry style vehicle as opposed to a 
meadowbrook, but I'm not keen on the little pipe carts.  Just not sturdy 
enough in my book.  A Fjord put to a pipe cart is an awful lot of engine to 
a mighty lightweight vehicle.

This message is from: Krist Martinsen [EMAIL PROTECTED]

HI PAT, on refinishing your cart it is necessary to thoroughly sand before
applying your finish.  I assume cart is made of ash and oak and if you have
let it go bare in some spots the wood might be discolored and might need to be
bleached out to get rid of dark stains. It is nice to use a vibrator sander on
the large flat areas but will require a lot of hand work on spokes and other
small areas. there are high quality paper made by 3 M that i would recommend
as they cut faster and  last longer. Start with a 100 grit and finish with 150
to remove sanding scratches. Either a good marine varnish or exterior
polyurethane would be fine. This bit from an old wooden boat builder.  Good
luck-Krist

 What do people think of them

Meadowbrooks are a case of love them or hate them.  Personally, I
don't like them, because I am co-ordination challenged.  The driver
has to simultaneously hold up the passenger seat (which has to be
folded up out of the way), keep good contact with the horse's mouth
(because stepping onto the back step overbalances the cart to the
rear, lifting on the harness belly band, making the horse want to
move), meanwhile hoisting oneself up onto a moving object, with all
hands already occupied.  Then make the horse stand still while the
passenger does likewise.  Getting out fast and to the horse's head in
an emergency involves a risky flying leap over the fender and wheel.
I prefer something that's easy entry.

Most meadowbrooks seat the driver somewhat low to the ground.  This
improves stability, but you'd better like the looks of your horse's
rump and tail.  ;-)

 are there any areas of concern in looking at a used cart?

Look it over, to see if everything matches.  If not, it may have been
repaired after a wreck, in which case, have someone very experienced
go over the vehicle.  Wheels are always an area of concern---are they
tight, and are the axles straight (which can include a downward bend
at the end, if the wheels are designed to be dished).  On level
ground, the spokes that are directly under the hub should be perfectly
vertical.

 What size wheel is best for a 14h Fjord?

The seat of the vehicle needs to ride level, and the tip of the shaft
should be at the point of shoulder of the animal.  Obviously, the
exact construction of everything inbetween will affect what size the
wheels should be.

Hi List,
We are fairly new to driving, but we have a meadow brook cart that we just 
love.  The other carts we've had have been easy entry and also some kind of 
homemade one that definitely wasn't easy entry.  But our meadow brook has a 
spring box.  The shafts attach to a spring that connects to the back of the 
seat.  The seat itself sits on the springs that are just above the wheels. 
The front of the seat box connects to the bar that goes between the two 
shafts. It is like riding on a cloud.  Our pony loves it too, because the 
shafts don't bounce on her either.  It is the neatest cart we've ever ridden 
in.  It's too bad, Lisa, that you got such an uncomfortable one.  Has anyone 
else had that kind of experience with a Meadow Brook?

Utah Fall / Barn Raising / Fjord sz. Meadowbrook Cart !

1999-10-15 Thread Pedfjords
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED]



   Hi everyone !   Greetings from So. Utah and our wonderful fall we are 
enjoying !  Its 83 for a daily high, 28 low tonight. The Fjords are haired up 
like YAK's and are dirty pigs. My Belgian is not far behind. Supposed to cool 
off alot tonight and tomorrow, then warm by next week again. I guess last 
year for the deer hunting opener ( a huge event here, the kids even get off 
school, calling it  Harvest Day ) they had 12 inch's of snow, and alot of 
folks had to be rescued off the mountian from it. So, we have been lucky so 
far, as our barn is ALMOST all up here, and will be put together in another 
2-3 weeks or so. 

Ruthie, you asked about the barn.well, in California we had no need 
for one, and I happend to find this one for sale just before we moved. It is 
a long, wooden barn that we are splitting down the center and having a raised 
breezseway put over the existing top. It will turn a 6 stall type, into a 12 
stall. ( 10 for horses, and a wash room and storage for harness/ buggys / hay 
ect?

  We had to dismantle it, and move it ourselves. Taking it down was not too 
bad, except we had to cut off all the corner fittings, as they were burried 
so deep that even a jack-hammer didnt move them. Putting it up wont be too 
bad either,  VBG but moving it has been a beast. Every board, and each 
section has made it up so far, and most of the roof. The extra pieces will 
make it up in 2 more trips and then BARN RAISING TIME !

 I looked into financing a barn but they are 30,000 to 45,000 for a 10 
stall. We decided to go with white vinyl fencing for our perimiter and also 
inside paddocks and round pen, so there went any extra funds for a barn. I 
paid 4,000 for our used barn in Calif.  and that worked for us. At least its 
paid for !   We shall see how it shapes up soon enough.   Next year, we will 
try and add inside stalls ( yep its wide open ) and finish the exterior with 
new paint.  This winter it will have pipe corrals inside with outside runs , 
so they can get in and out of the wind and cold, if they want. Alot of my 
herd is from Minnesota, and Kaiser's from Canada, so they have experienced 
winter before except those born in Disneyland. ggg  The colt, Valjo, is 
haired up like a walking rugand seems to enjoy the cool mornings, running 
up and down his paddock with poor Kaiser, the  babysitter  trying to keep 
him contained. Kaiser is a gem, and like our Knute was, LOVES babys. Spends 
his day, herding around Valjo, and keeping him out of trouble.

Been out with friends here who ride, and their horses are used to our 
carts now...the BLM land near us is driving heaven, and I plan on having a 
very fit pair for next year. Soft, powdery trails, wide and a million diff. 
ways to go.deer, ect. makes it pretty nice !   I will miss the way that 
Norco, Ca. got my horses broke for street work though.pretty quiet here 
when you get off of the streets ! 


**

Wanted to remind anyone who has or hasnt contacted me about the Meadowbrook 
cart, that it is going to Martins Auction TOMORROW Sat. to be consigned. I 
have a pic. of it to send by E-Mail, and its priced right to sell. All the 
extras, FJORD SZ. E-Mail me or call tonight if at all interested.  I am 
keeping the reserve high tomorrow, and still may have it after the auction, 
depends on how many people want to fight over a cobb sz cart, and how many ( 
? ) Martins may bring out.  Thanks for all the interest !
