The equestrian new invention thread

A carwash type installation for muddy horses, just send them through it and they walk out the other side totally clean.

I love this idea..in fact I've wished the same so many times.. You could have it all set up with the brushes so that not only does it wash them it'll also brush them too. If it's set up with a conveyor belt with rotating brushes it'll also clean the feet out at the same time.. Device also closes in the the tail as horse steps away and the tails are also brushed. This is the type of thing people with muddy monsters with thick makes and tails fantasise about whilst grooming said muddy hairy monster.
 
A rug-ripper repellent spray to apply to rugs to stop the blinking geldings from constantly ripping my mares tail piece off her rug. I know she's irresistable in that region but hell my fingers are sore from all the resewing.
 
having reclipped yesterday... an all in one anti-hair sui with rubber/gel seal at the neck and wrists to stop any hair getting everywhere
a way of projecting any clip pattern on to the horse so that all the lines are symmetrical and possibly some sort of easy clean off marker pen to draw it on
 
I think you might be mining a rich seam here ....

- Rubber banks to match rubber stable flooring to save having to bank up shavings
- Non-stick / Teflon feed buckets
- Flexible but indestructible feed buckets/trugs
- Waterproof coveralls for winter riding - like an all weather onsie / boiler suit
- Automatic water feeders that don't freeze up
- Some kind of mud repellent for tails, manes, feathers which works but which isn't greasy or oily
- Re-usable / washable bedding

.... I'm sure I'll think or more ....

"Flexible but indestructible feed buckets/trugs" - I have these and they are fab:

"Some kind of mud repellent for tails, manes, feathers which works but which isn't greasy or oily" - I know it`s technically oily, but i use pig oil on the tips of the tails and the mud literally slides off ... and i love how soft my hands are after i`ve used it :)

did you try anti chew dog spray? Cheap enough, pets at home have some. It tastes horrible and seems to hang around for a long time!
