pete Report post Posted August 7, 2010 Steve- Beauty work as usual! What do you use for the parallel lines on the seat? I have a single crease and the lousy one(adjustable) that Tandy sells. It has a screw on the side but the edges are different thicknesses and is sort of made for an edge crease if anything. Do you have a double creaser, who makes it and do you have to go back and bevel each side/does it cut or just scribe the lines? thanks pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BondoBobCustomSaddles Report post Posted August 8, 2010 As always, nice work Steve. Yea, we know about the economy hitting hard. Up here in Michigan, as nice as that saddle is, and with all the work you have in it, it still would only bring about $3,000 up here. People are just trying to survive, and horse gear like everything else has suffered, It's crazy, but; it is what it is. Here's hoping the country get's back on track.
