Members TrooperChuck Posted March 15, 2009 Members Report Posted March 15, 2009 I've sometimes wondered what will happen to my tools (and everything else) when I pass away. My wife and I had three children, but they died, and none of our nieces and nephews seem seriously interested in leatherwork or saddle making. I'm only 49 years old, so unless God has other plans for me, I hope to have quite a few more years left for pondering this question. Quote "Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway."

Russ Posted March 16, 2009 Report Posted March 16, 2009 My saddle teacher had the incredibly good luck to buy the first saddle that his dad made, under the tutelage of his grandfather. You can see where his dad was practicing his carving, since every fender, jockey, and skirt had a different flower on it! It's sitting on display in his shop, and it's certainly a conversation piece.
