Okay HL, I'll bite lol; whatcha got for blankets? I know folks hate Tom Thumbs but I like 'em, don't know what the Western bit would be called that had the roller in the middle like a TT but didn't have the shanks, but I'd like one of those. I was collecting snaffles for a while until I realized how that break in the middle could hurt the roof of the horse's mouth, haven't used 'em since except for decoration lol

I need to know measurements of the horse and how heavy,, i have from sheets.. light quilted to heavy.. and most are waterproof... as for tom thumb.. well that is all i use especially for trails and nothing high performance.. the joint in the middle does put pressure on the roof of the mouth but in the right hands works no different than a d ring snaffle. except with shanks.. that is why loose reins with tom thumb and just a jiggle. of the reins tell horse to stop..
i have to look if i have a western with roller.. ...

The roller isn't as rude as the pointy of the simple snaffle though. And quite frankly, as odd as it may sound, Buster did better in a Tom Thumb and stopping was definitely not his problem! But turning was. In anything else I would literally lean over and pull on the head stall or use my foot as pressure on the side of his head but then there we'd go! Not surprisingly after riding daily and quieting my cues and simply waiting for him to turn without increasing the cue he got to where he'd turn by my shift in weight. I would aim with my belly button and that's the direction we'd go. Funny that, huh?
Anyway I'm using the TT on Ziggy because I'm afraid she might have a stopping problem... correction, I would have the problem of her not stopping when we take her out of the round pen. She has more go than any other horse I've ridden. Peaches was more into up and down than go lol

I checked my blankets and sheets. there are 78 and 82 and 84 and i do have full cheek snaffle that will solve the turning problem.. and curbs. and i also have leg wraps.. shipping boots. odd and end brushes and grooming supplies i can box up and sell for a dollar each.. plus shipping.. 10 items would be a nice amount to get in those. and if anyone wants some leather items.. by the pound.. head stalls. chin straps. reins. leathers for english saddles. a nice mixture pieces of bridles. i need to clean out tack rooms. of all the unnecessary items.

How about a box full i will put them together and take a photo and send it to you yes the snaffle is jointed in the middle ,,, give me an idea of sizes that you need.. and i will get photos up on here this week.. of different blankets i have.. there are so many... different weights and sizes .. to post them all..
soooo the easiest is to give me size and how heavy or light you need the blanket.

Blankets not lightweight medium-weight does that makes any sense the kind you don't fold over to have any of those and no smaller than 34 by 34

A picture of a boxful that sounds fine
I like those brushes that smaller ones that fit in your pocket in your hand so you don't have to stretch your fingers out so much
