AdamTill Report post Posted June 15, 2012 (edited) Hi folks, Since I know there aren't many resources in this area, I thought I'd offer this link to a downloadable book on making English saddles: Dead Link removed, scroll down to find file attached to this thread. It's an older style of construction, but the concepts still seem to be largely the same. Cheers, Adam Edited September 16 by Northmount Dead link, file attached, scroll down Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gmace99 Report post Posted November 23, 2017 (edited) The shields book is a bit old. Things like a set seat we no longer do. I’m old enough to remember doing them. It is still not bad for some things and worth downloading i have some old videos of me doing parts of the seat. On you tube. That might help Type in uksaddlery Edited November 23, 2017 by gmace99 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
