Re: RC: New Horseshoe Pad?

[Truman Prevatt <tprevatt@mindspring.com>]

This concept has been around for a long time. I have used a pad which you
soaked in hot water for a period then shaped to the foot. They worked okay but
they were softer than other pads and would eventually tear. I remember they
had "hydro-" in their names.
