Members Tkleather1 Posted April 10, 2009 Members Report Posted April 10, 2009 Well Bob I hate to cut a guy down but I see a major flaw. In the top right picture the breastcollar on the right the little Dee ring is not pointed in the same direction as the others, it is flipped up while all the others are flipped down. boy you really need to work on this. I am Joking I promise!! All joking aside those are the most beautiful breast collars I have seen Once again you killed it. I too would like some sort of a tutorial on your finger cuts if you ever get around too it. I know you are a busy man but you really do inspire me and that is one of the many things that I would love to figure out how to lay them out. Bottom Line GREAT JOB.

Members TroyWest Posted April 12, 2009 Members Report Posted April 12, 2009 Very nice stuff Bob. I've never heard of giving flank cinches for awards. They look great. Troy Quote
Members Deb59 Posted April 12, 2009 Members Report Posted April 12, 2009 That is beautiful work!! The folks who win them will be proud to have them on their horses!! Very inspiring!! - I would also be interested in a tutorial on how you do some of your fingercuts. - Deb Quote
hidepounder Posted April 12, 2009 Author Report Posted April 12, 2009 Very nice stuff Bob. I've never heard of giving flank cinches for awards.They look great. Troy Thanks Troy! Those ar given away fairly frequently out here...of course, no one cares abouot the cinches...they just like the big fancy buckles. Quote
ArtS Posted April 12, 2009 Report Posted April 12, 2009 I have a critique Bob - it's too dang good!!! Beautiful work. Art Quote Art Schwab "You cannot teach a man anything. You can only help him discover it within himself." – Galileo Galilei
hidepounder Posted April 12, 2009 Author Report Posted April 12, 2009 Bob,Great looking gear - as always! How many years as a repeat order? Regards, Ben Thanks Ben! I've been doing the breast collars off and on for several years, for the Verde Vaqueros and a coouple of other roping organizations out here. Absolutely fantastic! I just have to ask- do you trace the fingercuts,just start freehand, what? And where do you start. I KNOW that there are literally HUNDREDS here that would LOVE a 2,3,4 or more panel tutorial on the fingercuts. Maybe if you showed a small scrap, where you begin, the next couple of cuts, etc BRAVO!!! pete Thanks Pete! When I do finger cutting I draw a pattern to fit the space I'm going to fill...but I only draw the main cuts...the rest are just fill in. Quote
hidepounder Posted April 12, 2009 Author Report Posted April 12, 2009 Thank you everyone, I am flattered by your comments! And if I can ever get caught up, I will try to do something on finger cutting...I appreciate your asking! Bob Quote
