7thhorsesoldier Report post Posted January 5, 2012 Hey all! I'm pretty new to leather working so please forgive all my dumb questions LOL! Anyway I'm in the process of building my own saddle. Everything's coming along beautifully but where do you all get the steel heavy duty D-rings and buckles? You know, like the large rigging rings and smaller D rings. Is there an internet supplier or do I check out the local Hardware store? Thank's for the help! Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
