  1. Greatly appreciate the links.
  2. I have been asked to build a belt for a friend of mine's unborn child. She wants the Horseshoe concho on the buckle, and I was hoping to match it with the Horseshoe Stamp from Tandy. The only catch is that none of the stores around Houston have it in stock. If anybody would be willing to let me borrow the stamp, I'll mail it back with whatever it cost you to send it to me, or if someone had an extra, I'll buy it from you. Thanks, Gilligan
  3. Thanks. I've been working my arse off the last couple weeks and haven't had time to jump on the forum. Will check him out.
  4. Looking for a Skull and crossed axes, much like the skull and cross bones. Building for a bike club and they're very specific in needs. Ohio Handbags didn't have anything and couldn't find conchos on Weaver's Page. If anybody could help it'd be greatly appreciated.
  5. I could very easily be over-looking it, but is there a way to change my display name? I'm no longer associated with the group or being "The Kid"... Any help would be appreciated.

  6. If you want to start with something basic, Tandy has a roller embosser with a celtic knot pattern on it. The Kid
  7. Got to thinking about this last nigth and remembered something a friend of mine asked me to do. He said that when after the burial, he wanted a bottle of Jack Black poured on his grave. I asked if it'd be ok if i filtered it through my kidneys first.
  8. She has multiple horses, so we will hope that at least one of them will put up with it, I don't know if anyone around here's got one to try on. Thanks for the pointer. What she wants is going to be leather strapping similar to the one in the picture; she drew up exactly what she wants it to be, I may scan and post it later. Thanks for the help. The Kid
  9. A frined of mine has asked me to build her a set of Warhorse Barding. If anyone's ever built somehting like this and has any suggestions or tips of what to do or not to do, they'd me very appreciated. thanks, The Kid
  10. I would be sure to skive it down like it says in the pattern to get a smooth transition, and not a rough spot to wear a hole in your horse's cheek. The Kid
  11. Garth Brooks sings a song called "Cowgirl's Saddle" (http://www.imeem.com/janeyboop/music/sS3VRNBj/garth-brooks-cowgirls-saddle/) I'm in agreeance with the song. This old cowboy sure knew it too. The Kid
  12. I was looking at the zippers at Tandy the other day and noticed that the ?bottom? (I think) stops looked like what you have in the pic, may've been top stops though... The Kid
  13. My uncle purchased this a couple years back at an antique auction. We've found simliar designs back to 1856.
  14. Been playing violin and fiddle for 7 years, started in 6th grade. recently purchased a mandolin for amusement. It's...Fun The Kid
  15. Johanna, this site is pretty thorough on details>> http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancest...HorseSense.html Hope it helps The Kid
  16. are you talking about something like this? http://www.smartpakequine.com/productclass...uctClassid=2084 The Kid
  17. you may can ask your local deer processor if he's got any in stock. then take it to a taxidermist and they can probably have it made into rawhide for a price. The Kid
  18. Don't know about rules at shows, but I've always dealt with bridles that had these type of ends. a.bmp The Kid a.bmp
  19. I have the Tack Accessory Pattern set from Tandy, it has a pattern for them. Never built any though.... The Kid
  20. I've seen some strain on them without breaking before. don't know of any disadvantages other than a little difficult to work with at times.
  21. if it's strictly for in home protection, there's no true need for more than three maybe four rounds, at that point the thieves should be gone or dead. I have a Beretta bobcat in .22 easy to conceal, has a capacity of 8+1 if i remeber correctly. barrel has break action like a shotgun for loading silently if she doesn't want to keep it loaded. The Kid
  22. if you're looking for somethign full sized, i'd used a real shoe, for smaller prints ~3-4 inch you could use a miniature's shoe. I branded a wallet with a real brand one time, but that's about it. The Kid
  23. I know that Hobby Lobby and I'm sure some other craft stores carry some rivets and spots, but don't know about full-line sales. The Kid
  24. Chances are that it was made by Mossy Oak. I know there are some guys on here that work at that level and hopefully they'll chime in, but I'd bet contacting Mossy Oak would be your best bet. The Kid
