Pics of Broom Horses

[Gilbert Vega]

A lady asked me to build her two "broom' horses for two up-coming newborns late this month. Here's is my rendition using Mesquite and Curly Maple finished with oil then waxed. Comments?

Well.....podnar......I'd say those look like some mighty fine cayuses! Well done Gilbert! Some kids are going to have fun with those! Very artistic!

Really nice. I will have to keep them in mind if my kids ever have grandchildren.

[Ralph Okonieski]

Very clever. The children will enjoy them I'm sure.

Those look great. How did you attach the mane?

[Wes Bischel]

Those look great! I made one a few years ago, but nothing like those. I'm sure all involved will be thrilled!

Thats for the compliments!!


How did you attach the mane?

I used Titebond III followed by 1 inch staples every inch or so until the glue dried.
