I really like that saddle. Your lines are perfect, and its amazing to me that you can have that much untooled leather without a scratch or blemish on it. Your experience shows, and that should make somebody a hell of a nice rig.

Saddle looks great Steve! Loopinluke is right....you did a great job of keeping everything looking clean. What did you use for oil and what kind of finish did you use? Bobby

Great work! Again!!!!

Tell me please- HOW do you make your double creases?!!! What tool do you use . I have an adjustable creaser(cheap Tandy with a screw adjustment) . Do you have to bevel each side?

Pete ,I cut the border with a swivel knife and then crease it with a Beader.On this saddle I beveled the crease with a cheakered beveler.

Hi Steve,

Missed this post until tonight.

I like it alot! If you do not mind me asking, what is the difference between a 3b and a Weatherly - I look at both and to me they look the same.

Thanks Billy
