emma Report post Posted November 12, 2008 Thought i should say something about myself as i have finally worked out how to post some pictures! I am a saddler working and living in england. Working mainly on english saddles restoring side saddles (english) and all kind of general saddle work and english bridlework. Also with some help trying to learn how to make western saddles. I have hopefully attached a picture of my first western saddle! in a previous post. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have hopefully attached a picture of my first western saddle! in a previous post. Emma, Welcome to the forum!! I work in a saddle shop in Wickenburg Az. I do repairs and tooling and have began doing some of the assembly of custom order saddles. I build saddles on my own at home. We see a lot of folks from England and Germany that stay at the guest ranches in our town. They love the western stuff! They stop in when they first get to town and by the end of the week they have purchased cowboy hats, boots, and western belt and buckle from us! Some have even bought saddles and have them shipped home!! Any help with materials, books, or information I can help with, just ask. I will see how to get it to you. Rick J.

Go2Tex Report post Posted November 28, 2008 Great to have you aboard! Your knowledge of English saddlery will be a very nice addition to the group. I'm quite interested in the construction myself. It seems much harder to find good info on the subject than Western saddlery. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
