[Aurelie]

and the last one will follow asap

Have fun guys!

[Hi Im Joe]

Awesome work!

[Aurelie]

And the very last one

In-skirt rigging with a "wade" tree custom made

Thx Joe by the way

[Denise]

Aurelie, Glad you put "Wade" in quotation marks... Neat work. Original patterning. Keep at it!!

[Aurelie]

Thanks Denise

I should have specified "wade SHAPE"

To me "Wade" is just a fork SHAPE among others...... being used on a ranch saddle or not, using in-skirt rigging or flat plates

but about what's a wade or not.......i am not going to poke the "sore paw grizzly" with a 10 feet pole 3:)

Hello guys!

Been a busy summer !

workload + a flood in the house + charlotte starting her 1st year at school ......wew

but here are they !

the last 2 saddles i have done

N°12 => custom made tree for a trotteur x draft horse

[Aurelie]

and N°13 is a project i had in mine since last december i started it but had to let it aside for other orders and got back working on it in June

It is a wade tree with flate plates - QH size

it was one for my stock originally .... i slightly modified it since a guy walker in my work shop and wanted to buy it before finished.....so I modified some stuff to match his wants (originally planned with a inlaid seat and bucking rolls )

i will put the drawing about my ideas in december (do not mind : i am an awful drawer but helps me to get a better idea ) and the the final saddle :D

this one i am particularly proud of my stamping work and my binding ...it was just "hellish" to do but turned well :D
