Hello all I'm new to this site. I was directed here from another site with hopes you can help me. I have working leather since I was 14, 34 now and have finally moved from the just getting by to have a decent set of tools. Recently I was approached by a person I work with about recovering the vinyl seat on motorcycle seat and replacing with leather. What do I do for a pattern short of cutting apart his?

Hello all I just joined this group and came across the saddlemarker discussion. I have made McCellan saddles, but with only six pieces of leather for the 1859 model it's a simple build. As a civil war reenactor with 12 years exp. I have made my own halters, bridles, and saddlebags. But I also do not consider myself a saddlemarker, although a buddy in the unit calls me the company saddler.
