jwwright Report post Posted July 9, 2009 I finished this one up yesterday. It is a spec saddle that I built between orders, and is for sale. Olin Young 13" swells, 15 3/4" finished seat. Swells, rear housing and stirrup leathers stamped in a geo pattern, the balance is rough out. Many Thanks, JW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jwwright Report post Posted July 10, 2009 Thanks for the comments. The rough out rigging along with rough out skirts is a pretty common and favored combination here in the southern plains / Tejas. Quite a bit different taste than the northern or buckaroo ways. Thanks again, JW. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cincolittles Report post Posted July 16, 2009 That's a really good looking saddle. I happened upon your website before I found this forum, several months back, I was impressed with the quality. I am thinking about repairing an old saddle that I've had since I was in junior high. It has no markings on it, but I believe it to be an old Shirley Brown saddle, this is according to my brother-in-law who had the saddle before me. It's not in real terrible shape, but it does have a cracked tree (they used to rope bulls in it), there is no leather left on the horn, and the sweat-leathers need replacing, the rest of it just needs a good cleaning and some minor repairs. I may have to pick your brain sometime, I have done a little bit of leather work since I was a kid, from braiding and platting to rawhide knife sheaths with braided edge lacing, and some carving and stamping, and am pretty good about being able to put something back together after I've taken it apart. But this will be my first real big leather project, and figured it was a good place to start with my old saddle. Anyways, I've probably rambled enough here, just wanted to say great work!
