lottarope Report post Posted March 11, 2013 Good work keep it up. If it was easy anyone could do it. As far as the wraps on the Nevada twist it'll be probably a 2x knot or better and use kangaroo if you bust a Latino lace when your finishing up the knot you will be more than displeased the kangaroo will also be the right weight and not require a splitter. The knot should be the same length as your wrapping to look right and I wouldn't mouse under it for fear of making a lump under my shin. My notes say the thong used is 51x 3/8. Ild probably plan on making a few neck rag slides before I tried tackling this project. If you do Facebook friend me at Coyote Saddlery I have pictures posted there of a couple of saddles with it done to them:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
