HorsehairBraider Report post Posted May 2, 2008 Making a saddle is a pretty complicated thing to do and would require a book... and there are some pretty good books about how to make a saddle. But for just the stirrups, usually, the stirrup leather goes up around the tree in a special groove made for it. It goes up between the seat and the tree, and then comes back out between the tree and bottom skirt. Have you got a saddle? You could just take a look at it real close and probably see this. If you don't have a saddle, do you have a friend that would let you look at their saddle? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
