Johanna Report post Posted January 6, 2010 Pete asked me to say hello to everyone and let you know what he's been up to. These are his Hawaiian Saddles: The Christmas newsletter explains what he is doing in Hawaii (being warm!) I love the carving at the top that he did. Pete is a friend, and a respected saddlemaker and author. If you are interested in getting any of his books, click here for details.

wood Report post Posted January 6, 2010 Very impressive. The front rigging on those are interesting, I guess there is always something new to learn even when you been at it as long as Mr. Gorrell. Thanks for the post. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mauifarrier Report post Posted June 11, 2010 Aloha from Maui, I got a chance to meet Pete last september in Waimea for the hawaiian saddle conference. At that point, I had practiced the rigging, but hadn't completed my first hawaiian saddle yet. Pete sure did a nice tribute to hawaiian saddles. Thanks for sharing those photos. I am really glad to get my hands on anything Pete writes. His saddle fit book is great, and he has a lot of wisdom to share in other articles like how to price your work (in shoptalk 2009). There is very little out there on the internet about hawaiian saddles. I hope to help change that, and I'm glad to see Pete sharing and contributing too.
