Vent: I tried a new hoof stand versus my old one on a tough draft horse yesterday

My old stand kept tipping with this big Belgian, but the new one with the wider base and rubber feet held solid the whole time. It made trimming his back feet way faster and safer. Anyone have a favorite stand for really heavy horses?

That wider base is a total game changer for drafts. My old stand was a nightmare on my Percheron mare until I switched to one with a heavy steel plate underneath. The extra weight and those non slip feet make all the difference when they decide to lean. What brand did you end up going with?

Actually, I've found them to be a total trip hazard.
