Ground Seat Tin Strainer Build Up

Recommended Posts

Hello there. I have just got this seet in. Woundering if anyone would have some good ideas to make it better. Where my sturup leathers goo threw I use a peice of leather that is about 13 to 14oz . The tin strainer was pounded out on a anvil. it is 22gaug tin. After the tin is in I add a peice that is a big triange. Then the last peice covers the whole seat. I skive and shape every peice that goes in. To try to keep the riders but close to the tree and keep the saddle narrow where your legs would go. After I have finished all of my skiving. I cutt my hand hole, and then fold my tin leather threw the hand hole and glue down. I also skive the leather that was pulled threw the hand hole down so there is a smoth transition in to the seet.

I will post a picture of my fiished ground seat.

Well that is all for right now.

Thanks

Lonnie Chambers
