Members gottaknow Posted May 6, 2017 Members Report Posted May 6, 2017 I had the pleasure of completely retiming one of those that had been taken apart by a novice. Not the funniest thing I've ever done. Quote

Members Big Sioux Saddlery Posted May 6, 2017 Members Report Posted May 6, 2017 3 hours ago, Constabulary said: what leather products have a thickness of 1" - just wondering - I have no idea.... There are harness parts that can hit the one inch mark pretty easily if one doesn't actively try NOT to. Tug ends and Breeching ends primarily. Although I've never made a bareback rigging, used on bucking horses in rodeos, I've been told they'll hit an inch also. Cantle bindings on a handmade saddle will definitely hit an inch, although we hand sew those. Quote
Members T Moore Medicine Hat Saddlery Posted May 7, 2017 Author Members Report Posted May 7, 2017 I would prefer not to get one of the 441 clones if possible. I had a ferdco 2000 that never worked right even though it was worked on twice by ferdco and was traded off for a adler 205. Just looking for other available options without having to go with a 441 if possible Quote
