Blackie Report post Posted December 19, 2013 Very very nice mike! How do you calculate your measurements for the pieces? The seat I just finished came out a little wrinkly at the end of lacing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

immiketoo Report post Posted December 20, 2013 Blackie, I added enough length to the original pattern to accommodate the thickness of the leather, in this case, about 1/8 bigger circumference. Then, measure around the circle to get the length of your side piece. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blackie Report post Posted December 20, 2013 Wouldn't you want your top piece smaller? I tried in another post to get answers on this and a couple of people said my top piece was too big, and I should subtract the thickness of the leather from the original circumference.

immiketoo Report post Posted December 21, 2013 Blackie, if you get the sept/oct issue of the leather workers and saddle makers journal, a full explanation of how I make these is in there. I make them bigger, but you have to go with what works for you. http://www.leathercraftersjournal.com/product.cfm?product=368 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
