Latest Saddle Off The Bench

[BondoBobCustomSaddles]

Thank You to all for the kind comments! To answer the questions, it actually took about 4 mos to make, once the tree was here, and we actually started. Tom, the actual color is black background and the detail is dark brown (feiblings pro oil die) all done on Wicket & Craig leather and yes it is real sheep skin.

Once again, thanks to those who took the time to comment.

Thanks again for the kind comments. I was particularly pleased with how the tooling turned out, since I used a lot of the tips I got from Bob Park's book, and also I used a specific flower that he uses and didn't want to "bugger it up". It was mentioned that it was hard to see the tooling because of the color and the overall pics. Here are some better pics, still trying to get this picture taking thing down.

Thanks Again for looking!

MAGNIFICENT! That is what I call high end leather furniture. Can't imagine what your customer will feel like trotting around on that... probably like the queen of all she surveys. Holy mackrel! Great job, Bob.

Thanks again for the kind words. Paul you mentioned about the girl that I made the saddle for. Attached is a pic of the young lady and the horse that the saddle was built for. Can't wait to see them in a show this year, if it will ever warm up!
