Pretty sure you wont be able to beat Barry King as far as quality for price. Check out his website

Anyone know where I can get some wool felt to use on the fantastic edge burnisher?

Thanks Pink the two sides I ordered arrived yesterday and they wee excellent

Ive got a project in the works, and was wondering if there was a tutorial somewhere that could show me how to do the braid that is used on the rear jockeys, the one that youd use to butt joint two flat pieces of leather together

Dont know how limited a budget your on but Barry King has some nice background stamps in both fine and medium.Definately worth the price difference, these are handmade quality stamps, not the chrome drenched stuff that Tandy sells. @25$. Check them out at www.barrykingtools.com

Anyone have any experience with the Thouroughbred sides from Hidecrafter?

My vote is for Bob Douglas also, although you can save a bit by using Bobs awl in a Barry King haft, about 1/2 the price

Thanks Jo Thanks King

Could someone give me a working email address for Chuck Smith, or if possible post a copy of his tool list

Hey Billio, my recomendation as far as Motorcycle saddles would be to steer clear of the Eco Flo Line, I wouldnt consider using anything but spirit based dyes like Fiebings or Angelus.

Thanks everyone

One I did this weekend for Hell Bent Customs in Trenton Tenn, and one for an Exile Cycles trike

Weaver Leather sells a full size horse

Awesome Roo, lacing looks great

Can Acetone be used in place of deglazer? I think someone told me that once.

Thanks Frank, Ive got some deglazer

Sorry to Bump this back up but reallu hoping for a suggestion as this seat is supposed to ship this weekend

I dyed a seat with Feibings black, then put a coat of Leather Balm w/ Atom wax, after buffing noticed one area on the seat really needs some more dye, coming through with a purplish tint, can I shoot this with some more dye? Do I have to do something to strip the wax off first? Or if this wont work what about using vinagroon over dye? Any help will be greatly appreciated, sure dont wanna break this seat down. Rick

Anyone have any experience with Tandy Royal Meadow leather, how it tool and dye?

Thanks

Thanks Cuda for the kind words, I just used a wider beveler, a hackbarth brand, and cut a little deeper since this was some pretty thick hide, 8 oz.

Thanks Bro

Thanks again for checking it out
