Casey Jordan Report post Posted October 7, 2011 I have been asked to do a very important historical saddle in miniature. The Mexican saddle has silver threaded patterns around the skirts and other parts. This is done like the cactus thread used on many Mexican made items. Can anyone here do this or know someone who can? I would like to find someone who knows how to do this. I think I would rather hire someone to do this that has experience rather than try to do this with no experience. Any help with this would be appreciated! Thanks, Casey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
