nothing?

I am new here so forgive me if this is the wrong place or I dont know what I'm talking about (I dont). I am a cyclist and I like to build things. I love build bikes from the ground up, I build wheels and I will soon start work on building my own frame. I am a big fan of leather saddles like this. I know where I can get the frame and rivits and the tentioning parts. I have repaired rivits in saddles like the one pictured so I understand that part. Now I would like to build my own but I dont know where to begin with the leather. I know I need a thick piece of leather and I need to form it some how. But out side of that I have no idea. Please give me any advice or feel free to tell me I'm barking up the wrong tree. Thanks in advance
