I was wondering if some of you DIY people could help me out. I have put a picture below of my little horsebox. I have not travelled my boy in it yet as it needs a few alterations and some tidying up. First off is the partition. Now its in the right place but I was wanting to make it a little higher as it only comes halfway up barons belly. I plan to keep the two pieces of horizontal wood where they are and just use some stronger bolts to fix it to the hinges. So what wood would be best to use for the partition - I plan just to take the big sheet of wood off and replace it. Also what sort of shape should I cut it? If you look at the picture Baron will travel on the other side of that partition and will always travel on his own as its only a 3.5t box and he is 16.2hh. So I dont really want anything to stop him popping his head over to the other side of the partition.
So my question is what wood is best to use? Also is it ok to use gloss paint inside the box as long as I let all the smell (fumes) out before travelling him in it?
