Farrier hoof cradle and tool caddy kit

A farrier hoof cradle and tool caddy kit comprising:

• a first base having a top side and a bottom side;
• an inverted bell-shaped vertical first support member centrally disposed on the first base top side;
• a hollow vertical first rod having an open top end and a bottom end, the bottom end being centrally disposed on the vertical first support member;
• wherein the first base has a width to permit a farrier to step onto the top side between the bottom end and an outer perimeter of the first base during use to assist in stabilizing the first base;
• an aperture disposed through the first rod proximal the top end;
• a height-adjustable first pole and a height-adjustable second pole alternately engageable with the first rod, each of the first pole and the second pole having a plurality of openings vertically aligned therethrough;
• an L-shaped adjustment pin engageable through the aperture and one of the openings when one of the first pole and the second pole engages the first rod, the adjustment pin having a hole therethrough proximal an insertion end thereof;
• a fastener engagable with the hole;
• a hoof cradle centrally disposed atop the first pole, the hoof cradle comprising:
• a central portion perpendicular to the first pole;
• a sidewall vertically disposed on each of a right side and a left side of the central portion in a position perpendicular to the central portion, each of the sidewalls having an outwardly bent top edge in a position substantially parallel to the central portion;
• wherein the central portion has a width and a length and the sidewalls have a height configured to receive and stabilize an equine's hoof within the hoof cradle;
• a finishing stand disposed atop the second pole, the finishing stand comprising:
• a disc disposed atop the second pole;
• wherein the disc is sized to support the equine's hoof atop thereon;
• wherein the disc is configured to support the equine's hoof for finishing;
• a pedestal having an upper side and a lower side, the pedestal having at least a pair of wheel assemblies disposed on a same side of the pedestal;
• a tapered vertical second rod centrally disposed on the pedestal upper side, the second rod having an upper end and a lower end, wherein the lower end has a width wider than a width of the upper end, the upper end comprising:
• a grooved handgrip comprising a plurality of continuous horizontal grooves circumferentially disposed on the second rod proximal the upper end and a protrusion disposed between each of the grooves;
• and
• a plurality of trays comprising:
• a first tray having a pair of handles and a pair of longitudinally aligned dividers centrally disposed in the tray, wherein the dividers are disposed on opposite sides of a central orifice of the first tray from a right side to a left side of the first tray, wherein each divider forms a pair of compartments;
• a second tray having a pair of handles and a pair of spaced apart internal walls continuously disposed in a parallel position to each other across the second tray from a right end to a left end thereof, wherein the internal walls define a triad of tray sections, each of the tray sections having an open bottom side;
• a middle section of the tray sections comprising a brace surrounding a central orifice of the second tray, the brace dividing the bottom side of the middle section into half portions;
• a third tray being the uppermost tray of the trays, the third tray having a lid, a fastening configured to secure the lid to the third tray, and a central orifice, wherein the lid has a center opening disposed therein, wherein the fastening is a pair of clasps;
• wherein the first tray has a length and a width greater than a length and a width of the second tray;
• wherein the length and the width of the second tray are greater than a length and a width of the third tray;
• wherein the central orifice of each of the first and third trays is disposed in a closed bottom wall thereof, wherein the second rod engages the central orifice of each tray in a mounted condition,
• wherein the first tray is configured to slidingly engage the second rod in vertical position lower thereon than a vertical position of the second tray when the second rod is in an upright position;
• and
• wherein the third tray is configured to slidingly engage the second rod in a vertical position above a vertical position of the second tray and proximal a lowermost groove of the grooves when the second rod is in an upright position;
• wherein the lid center opening has a diameter smaller than a diameter of the second rod at a point along the second rod proximal a lowermost groove of the grooves;
• and
• wherein in the mounted condition, each tray is removably disposed on the second rod in a position parallel to the pedestal and the trays are in a stacked configuration with the third tray disposed proximal the lowermost groove.
