URGENT HELP ON \"HIPPOSANDALS!\" - 05corbca - 04-17-2012
Hi everyone out there!!
I need as MUCH help as I can get URGENTLY (for TOMORROW!!) about hippo sandals.
A blacksmith is reconstructing these hipposandals with me tomorrow but I need to get as much information as possible about making them and putting them on.
I NEED SOME GOOD PICTURES OF HIPPO SANDALS BEING ATTACHED TO A HORSE'S HOOF.
Has anyone out there reconstructed a hippo sandal before? and has any pictures?
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Many, many thanks,
Catherine
P.S if anyone does have any pictues please send them to my email address [email protected]

Moira, in the end I went down to Devon and Dave Budd, originally an archaeologist who is now a blacksmith and makes many things including knives and tools, reconstructed the hipposandal for me. It worked so well and I will email you some pictures of the end product! Thanks for your help again! Catherine

Catherine, would you mind sending me those pictures, too. I'm very interested in them.
Many thanks in advance.
