Making rope halters (20 characters)?

The polyester rope you need can be bought from yachting and /or climbing suppliers. It is quite expensive. Other rope really is no good. The knot used as a basis for the halter is the 'fiador knot', a bit fiddly but ok to do with a bit of practice! To seal the ends of the rope melt them with a cigarette lighter.

Good luck with your business venture!

Ha! Totally. I've always thought how ridiculous it is that people will pay $8 for something they could make for $2. Go to a hardware store and get some yards of rope. Just get a rope halter and use that as your guide- It's basically just knots! It's a great idea.

Hi. I make my own halters all the time. Do you see my display picture of the horse? He wears them but he wasn't then though. I do it out of rope if that's what you were wanting to do.

www.horseloversworld.weebly.com is my website if you would like to check it out. I'm still working on it so don't expect it to be the best.

I looked into doing this but was put off by the amount of rope I'd need and how much the rope costs.

You will need to be able to bulk buy the rope to make any profit and that means having a couple of hundred quid spare to buy it with.

Craig Cameron has a new book on knots, and making rope halters...Its a great book. It has lots of other knots used for multiple purposes..I found it fun and educational. Its available on his website.

you may desire to call the sheriff or somebody to return out and supply them somewhat awaken call and to return verify on them each each now and then to verify issues are going up hill. ask the owner in case you may groom the horses. shrink their manes. Detangle their tails. in case you incredibly need to bypass to a severe attempt to enhance money and bypass out and with the help of a few wormer, new halters, and doubtless even feed. verify they have sparkling sparkling water. yet incredibly... call somebody and get those horses help.
