That says it . What would we be without the horse ? fj

Nice. Making up a headstall with design flow and function is a tougher project than most fj

JW Your rigs always look like they are made by a fellow who knows what its like to use the business end of a saddle. Thanks for postin pictures. FJ

Really like your style of in-skirt.The floral/rough-out combination is classy. Thanks for the inspiration !

Looks good ! Rope tracks on the horn wrap will make it look prettier yet. FJ

I am pleased with the Laporte tree rig I have.Used 10 oz skirting and it weighs just over 30 lbs. Rode it for a while as a bare bones,with the right amount of pad it worked well. Fenders are a must or leg pinch was a S.O.B. FJ

Jake Nice lookin usin rig. Wish my 1st was as pretty.Sturdy I got, pretty not so good. If I started a shop I could call it " Leather Butcher's Saddlery" I bet that name ain't taken yet ! FJ

I used one on a saddle I made and have been using daily. Works good for me. got it from:Double H 970-482-6229

I feel your pain on the bobbles,workin on #2 myself. A good lookin,good sittin work rig. FJ

JW Thanks, your answer explains it well. FJ

J.W. Nice work ! Makes the ones I tie look vanilla plain. How are the different colored main strands spliced in ? FJ

Tandy 50 bucks each,on sale now. I couldn't find them much cheaper used. FJ

Steve I have bought a tree a few months back { cable rigged}.Hung stirrup leathers on it and have been using it so I would have a better idea Of what I am working with.Bars are a bit on the short side when compared to a standard tree,but seems to fit a horse O.K. when I pad it correctly.Will get it finished in the next month or so and really start using it. Frank P.S. Photos of your saddles are an inspiration
