Members loopinluke Posted August 12, 2010 Members Report Posted August 12, 2010 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. Quote
hidepounder Posted August 12, 2010 Report Posted August 12, 2010 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 Quote

Members Billy H Posted September 3, 2010 Members Report Posted September 3, 2010 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 Quote
