I haven't posted much here in a while. Been super busy with orders like this one. Taylor Guitars request I make this for their visitor's center in California.

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.

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.

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.

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
