A friend's father had a cutter, yup, a one horse open sleigh, up in the rafters in a shed.
I should ask my friend if he still has that. I doubt if the building is still standing.

Dashing through the snow, in a one horse open sleigh.............never saw one here, as it just doesn't snow enough for people to have had them.

Always thought it would cool to take a ride in the snow on one.

to Grandma's house across the river?

My mother's father had sleigh bells. They just disappeared.

I made this one.I copied the design from an old sleigh the neighbor had.His grandparents used it to go to town in the winter.



Here is one I fashioned out of a two wheeled cart.

I have seen sleigh bells.

They were on a leather strap about a foot and a half long...

For such small bells, they could sure create some racket when you shook them...

We put them on the harness of our draft teams at Chirstmas, took the townie's for hay rides, alway's good time. Rio7

Merry Christmas to all from the Mautino family.

That is one heck of a Christmas Card !

Merry Christmas Saddlesore.

Doesn't get any better than that!

That is beyond cool. I need to rebuilt a few things here. A seed corn grader for one.

Best use of an old pair of ski's I can think of.
