Steph Report post Posted July 26, 2006 Hi all, I'm Steph. I live in Australia. I am about to begin making my first saddle as part of a course I am doing. I am understandably very excited about this. I have so many ideas about what I would like to have. Now all I have to do is make it all happen. I can hardly wait to start, first class is this Sunday, 3 days away. My teacher is a man named David Morris and his saddles are just wonderful. But I always like to get morthan one view on things so I hope to be able to ask those with more experience than I have. So please stay with me and forgive all silly questions. thanks in advance Steph Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bruce johnson Report post Posted August 1, 2006 Steph, David Morris was in Sheridan for Saddle Week this year. I really enjoyed the 4 days spent with him as a fellow student. He is very willing to share what he knows, and that is a LOT!! He can talk about trees, mechanics of fitting trees, and mechanics of putting a saddle together. You will learn a lot. He is a great guy. Bruce Johnson Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Johanna Report post Posted August 10, 2006 Well, Steph, how did it go? Are there other students in your class or are you being taught one-on-one? How many hours go into a saddle class? Did you get a course outline? I wonder where one would even start with such a complicated project as a saddle? Let us know how you like the work and the class, as you can see, I have a million questions. Johanna Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
