Please note:the Jump Cups featured on this page are for 1:9 scale Model Horses, they are not full sized.

Model Horse Jump Cups

Scale miniature jump cups are made of resin and feature a chain with attached cotter pin so the pins won't get lost. Sized to easily slip on 3/8" square dowels and are suitable for Traditional scale jumps. Comes in unpainted resin, some assembly required.

Shown here painted in silver color, with chains attached. Center "loop" for the chain will allow the cotter pin to be used from either side of the jump standard.

The chain prevents you from losing the cotter pin, so they're always with the jump cup.

Jump Cups
	JC138 — Jump Cups fits 3/8" square dowels includes rings, chain and pins $4.50/pair.

It's easy to paint these jump cups with most any spray paint and in any color. Shown here is silver metallic in the back, Rustoleum Hammercoat Copper (lower left) , unpainted (center) and Testors black and Metallic Sapphire blue (lower right).

The black paint was clogged and spattered, so it was covered with the blue which ended up looking an awful lot like a powder-coated finish...

And they look great on a jump!

To prep your dowels to turn them into standards:

• Cut two dowels and tape them together so they line up. Trim the ends if they are not the same length.
  
• Mark holes to be drilled with a pencil every 1/4, 3/8 or 1/2 inch for adjustments
  
• A drill press is recommended to keep the holes straight. A 1/16" drill bit is recommended.
  
• With the dowels stacked one atop the other, carefully drill down through both pieces to create the hole. You can turn it over and drill through the holes from the back side to clear them.
  
• Lightly sand the holes off smooth, wipe off any wood dust and prepare to paint them with the paint and color of your choice. Spray paint works great.
  
• Loose Pins? Push some Tacky Wax in the holes with a toothpick to snug them up and add "grip:
• Rails falling off the cups? Use a Removable Glue Dot on the bottom side of each end of the rail, and press the glue dot area into the cup. Now your rails will stay put until you are ready to disassemble the jump.
