Did you read the whole thread in one go? 
I would reccomend only 2 or 3 posts a day

  sounds a bit long winded doesnt it? Im sure there must be an easier way using the puter

Well, I think that paper approach is flawed for many reasons...but as a CAD designer (at least my colleagues think I am ) I know that drawing a 3D horse is difficult as h*ll, and I gave up

If only I could get my hands on a horse sculpture or mannequin I could attach force sensors to each hoof and measure the CG...shame Christmas is so far away I have the force sensors in my drawer Or, if I had any artistic skills whatsoever I could make one in silly putty, that way it's easy to form into SI etc

But no, I have no artistic talent, either Only force sensors

We have a Barbie horse  mind you I've not worked on his SI for some time

And can you bend his knees completely backwards like I used to do with my Barbie dolls?

Olav, could you pretend to be a horse and attach force sensors to you hands and knees?
