Location: PNW | Just kidding. Ok peeps, pull your faces out of the popcorn at the Mary and Latte show for a minute, I need help.
Can somebody post a link or directions or a link to directions for making a German Martingale. I've found a few leather ones at tack shops but the reins they come with are just so DANGED HEAVY. Help! Thanks much!! |

Well gosh, everybody's got their panties twisted one way or the other about it - I figured I'd take advantage of the spectacle and get help. Lol.
And it wasn't COMPLETE sneakiness, I put the ACTUAL topic in the title also. Lol

| To male your own you will need one snap to go to the cinch, and either 2 chain links or smaller snaps.
You will need approx 10 feet of rope, fold it in half, run the one snap for the cinch down to the bottom make sure both sides are even then tie a knot to keep the snap in place, this will be the bottom of the fork.
Attach either the chain link or snaps to the 2 ends of the rope, again make sure everything is even. Now the fork is made.
For reins, if you have nylon braided put the fork on your horse run the martingale through and up the reins. Find the spot you want you can put the chain link through the braid to secure into place or the snap.
Hope you can understand this |

I have some similar to this but they are leather and they have snaps on the ends so you run them through the bit and snap them through my braided reins. |
