Tinneal Report post Posted November 29, 2011 Very nice! Looks a lot like the first bridle I ever made. What kind of leather did you use? Did you dye it yourself or did you buy it that colour? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
indypbear Report post Posted November 30, 2011 Nice job on the bridle. Keep up the good work. When you are in need of conchos for sale or future projects contact me-the marines is one of ours. I have them available for several different special organizations Masons, Military etc. I don't sell retail, so I'm not in competition with your market if you're a retailer/maker. We are making one now that you can adapt to any emblem that is maximum of 25mm diameter ie. lapel/hat pins or "bling". We also do maker's stamps for the craft. I can be contacted at www.front-lineproducts.com or johnk@front-lineproducts.com. John aka Indy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's the fiebings oil red and then I used saddle tan antique over that. 1322668675[/url]' post='222291']Nice job on the bridle. Keep up the good work.

I didn't know you could get oil dyes in any other colour than the browns and black. I'll have to watch for that at my local Tandy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
