After being a member of the board for years, I finally decided that my dd was on her last leg and it was time to pick up another one. So I found this little gem on craigslist...







I just took some pics of the full stable, I just need them to load up to photobucket.

Oh I forgot to mention, Abby's a little bit broke...

The pistons on the clipers completely compress however, it seems like the pads are just too thick for the allotted space. We are going to take them apart tomorrow to try to figure out the issue. I'll post up more then....
