Mulesaw Report post Posted September 4, 2022 Looking really good Thanks for taking the time to post clear pictures like this to show the progress and in what sequence the tooling is done. I alwyas get too carried away, so even with my best intentions, I rarely manage to take other than a start and a finsihed picture. I am anxious to se what the yokes will look like completed. Hope you manage to find out how to upload the remaining pictures. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You need to reduce file sizes. 1280 x 768 pixels or there abouts is adequate for photos as the screen resolution on most computers is typically less than 100 dpi. See this post for helps and suggestions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe something on your end with your browser or your ISP? Sorry I can't test as there is no limit on the size of moderators' uploads. If you have more to post and can't get through, message me and I'll give you an address to email them to, and I will post them for you with your comments.

Mulesaw Report post Posted December 6 @FrenchMich A bit late, but the yokes and chaps look absolutely gorgeous. Attaching the back belt with those "conchos" really look good. Not that I am opposed to attaching them with braiding, but it just looks so elegant with the silver buttons. There is a potential western chap build in my future to a friend of my oldest son, so I am tempted in trying to do just a little bit of carving thanks to your excellent tutorial. Thanks for taking the time to take the pictures and explain the process. Brgds Jonas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
