Thank you Gents for the replies. I really appreciate it. 8/9 it is to be on the safe side. Gives me the option of tooling or not. I will take advantage of the Tandy double shoulder option....too good to pass up! Regards, Squid

Greetings! Will be whipping up a rigid mounted saddle for my chopper, but before I dole out the dollars for leather I need some expert advice: The platform will be 5-6 oz., but wondering what would be best for the gusset? It will be laced to the platform and molded around the foam and riveted to the pan. Would it be best to go lighter on the gusset, say 3-4 oz., since it will be wet molded? How 'bout 4-5 oz.? Would greatly appreciate any input. Regards Squid
