She put me high… upon a Pedestal…

…so high that I could almost see eternity…. tra-lalala…. tra-lalala…

You probably need to be A Certain Age to remember that, but it seems appropriate to me!

I’ve been ~~nagging~~ asking the LSH for ages to make a Pedestal for me and my horsies to play with. Finally, it’s here.

Pedestal 1.0 as modelled by Cookie

I brought it up to The Farm on Thursday and introduced it to Aero. This was his reaction when he first saw it…

Oof. As you can see, he’s a real handful…

Anyhow, I set up the camera and we got to work. Here’s the result :

This will be ongoing…. I’m sure we can come up with loads of funky ways to use this and I’ll share the results with you.

If anyone is interested, I can post a few photos showing the construction of the pedestal. We are slightly worried that it will not hold a very big horse (think 700kg Friesan) so the LSH will probably reinforce it some more. I also need to tack on a rubber mat, as it is a bit slippery for shod horses.
