Re: clipper advice please
i use the oster a5's they're the most popular, but they can be buggers for overheating if you have a lot to do.
the andis agc clippers are becoming popular (cheaper too!) these in my opinion are the best on the market. oster and andis blades are compatible on both machines. theese are both mains clippers, so they're difficult for using on tops. if u want a set to do tops with, i use the oster trimmer but are no longer available, look at top cut clipper for top lines.

…
I have a pair of Andis AGC clippers, not only are they good for udders, but also ears and legs. They are so quiet, and they don't vibrate much. Also cost effective. I use them for toplines, but they are not as nice as the small cordless sets.

Re: clipper advice please
I use a wahl 2 speed clipper with different plate i use 15 for the head and legs 50 for the udder and i also use a moser cordless clippers for finishing touch on the legs.The adjusting blades are not sharp enough to clip the udder. for the toplines I use a oster clipper.

Re: clipper advice please
For udders and ears I recommend the Andis AGC 2 speeds with either a set of 40's or 50's depending on the cow and you skill level. For tops a tight set of 84's with a 23 top is best for cutting them out then use topline clippers like the old red oster model or panasonic for fine tuning.
