Feb 23, 2008 by Chuck Diesel | Posted in Hair
Man i have tried and tried again to get my clippers to edge the hairline like my barbers. adjustment is either to close and cuts or to low to define the hairline... HELP!!!!
you need a special screwdriver to take it apart and re-align (i'm the world's worst speller. sorry) the blade.

How quickly do clipper blades dull?
Jul 07, 2008 by Skittles | Posted in Horses
Im looking at these clippers

How many trimmings do you think they last(the blades that is)? Like doing legs and bridle path on an appaloosa
Do you think these are good clippers? Could they maybe handle body clipping?
No, in my opinion, these clippers are not made for body clipping....maybe bridle paths, muzzles, some facial hair, that's it....it takes a heavy duty pair of clippers to body clip. I use the large Sunbeam clippers, I even use them when a bridle path is rather thick and course....there is just so much those little, light clippers can handle, and body clipping isn't one of them.

Those are "okay" clippers, I'd stick with big old "Sunbeams" for body clippers. You can buy them fairly cheaply on ebay. AND for touch ups, those Andis might work, I've ALWAYS used Osters and still have my original pair from '76 and they've worked GREAT (Noisy, but they still run and clip)! I've had my old Sunbeams since '80 and if you care for your blades, make sure the horses you clip are clean and dry, blades normally will keep cutting for a couple of years if you're working them a couple of times a month.

those would probably fine for just points like bridle path, nose, etc.
they're definitely not good enough for body clipping. they'd do a shotty job and the blade wouldn't last very long. for bodies you need a larger, more heavy duty Oster or something.

I am not sure how quickly blades will dull, I never have paid attention. I have had mine for years (I have Oster clippers). Just remember when you use clippers keep them cleaned and oiled and the blades will last a long time!!
Usually clippers will come with the oil, so when you buy them, buy some blade wash with them and follow the directions.
It is amazing how much better they work when you take care of them properly.

It depends on the horse.
Some, especially ponies, have hair like wire. I had one pony I couldn't even clip a bridlebath on; had to use scissors every time. Body clipping her took at least two sets of blades, sometimes three, inspite of cleaning and oiling properly.
If your horse is a typical appy with thin mane hair, I'd think they'd last quite a while. Legs and such aren't as hard on the blades as the bridle path is.
Those look like decent clippers for bridlepaths and so on, but I don't think they'd stand up to body clipping. Never used them, just my experience with similar ones.

How do I adjust my hair clipper blades for a sharp cut,Andis T outliners is the name of the clippers?

What you have to do is take them apart,and make sure that no hair is stuck in between the blades.Clear that out.Than when you reassemble,make sure that you notice how they go back in,allign the blades so that the blades are in between each other.So that they aren't perfectly matched up.Every other tooth.Than always oil your clippers while they are turned on,that allows the little hairs to come out,and it cleans them up.Wipe off excess oil.I used to clean out my co-workers clippers all the time, and you would be amazed at how well they cut after.Good luck.
