We would like to show you a horse box that we have been looking after for 14 years. The box itself is constructed of oak and mahogany, and the original when built was on a Bedford TK. We moved the box onto a Ford around 8 years ago.
Since then the box has come back to us at regular intervals for rework.
Each rework requires us to totally rub down by hand, and re-varnish again by hand (we don’t believe in spraying varnish because it will peel off).
All the white decal lines are painted by hand, (painstakingly) but enjoyable, this is then over-varnished to give a slightly gold appearance on the lines. Let the varnish do its job.
This time when it came in the new customer, (yes it has now been sold) and gone to a new home, on the Yorkshire moors. It now carries a very nice Clydesdale called Ernie hence the new name on the front.

This last photo shows where we applied a first wash coat of varnish left alone for 8 hours to see how it would indeed pull in to the open timber.
