Hello All,

I have been working on my first saddle forever, and am not getting very far very fast - but does anyone know or can sell me a pattern for a miniature western saddle? I am looking for something decorative - not the tandy mini saddle - but something that is just about 1/8" scale or so from an original.

Since I haven't been successful making a large saddle, I was at least hoping maybe I could find a pattern or kit for a miniature model

thanks for any input or information that you migth have

Check www.riorondo.com for miniature saddle kits. They are 1:9 and 1:12 scale.

I have the patterns for a complete small saddle. The trees and stirrups are available from "Ralide" aprox $30.00 or some treemakers have wood covered with rawhide for aprox $160.00

The patterns are for the saddle parts not tooling patterns. I think that is what you are asking for? (they have very good instructions too.)

Let me know, I can have them copied and send to you

Hi Rick

That is EXACTLY what I am looking for, I can pay you for your time, materials, shipping, etc - but that is so exciting! I have been looking for something like this for a long time - please let me know what you need and I can get it to you -

Equiss,

I have found the patterns and instructions for the "half pint" saddle. I can copy the instruction pages on a regular copier but the patterns are on a large sheet. I will check our local office supply to see if they have a large bed copier.

I have had mine under construction for to long. I should finish it up. Never enough time!

I'll get them to you a.s.a.p. :Holysheep:

Oh my Gosh! That is so cute! That is exactly what I have been looking for - if needed, there is also an option of taking them to a "blueprint" printer - I will pay your costs - so please let me know what your time and effort are worth - this is going to be so fun! Can't wait

I got the patterns copied at Staples (blue print copier!) I will copy the instruction manual tomorrow ( it is small ) and get it all in the mail. P.M. me the address you would like it sent to.

The large copy was $2.71 and I am not sure about mail yet. We can settle up later for mail cost. Should be only a couple dollars.

Hi Rick - did you get my home mail address? I didn't want to put it on the board, but I did email it to you, please let me know if you got it - I CAN'T WAIT! I have to put in a tandy order, anything stand out that I need (probably a lot of things) - guess I can also be patient too, but it isn't my strong suit! Thanks s much

I bought several of these trees a while back off ebay.

I want to use one to make and mount a saddle on my mailbox.
