thenrie Report post Posted February 4, 2018 Hey folks, I am repairing an old saddle a fellow had it in his garage and let a dog chew on it. So, I am replacing a the seat and the right front jockey and I am hoping to duplicate the stamping. It's not too complicated, but I need a veiner that measures 1.25" X .25" (1-1/4" X 1/4"). I also needed a border stamp that I can't find, but I was able to make a passable stamp to duplicate it. I have attached a photo of the stamping I'm trying to duplicate. The flower petals are made using a veiner. I would also like to find the flower center used in this stamping, as well as the rose stamp used on the pattern corners.

bikermutt07 Report post Posted February 4, 2018 I wouldn't want to get your hopes up, but I may have that veiner. I will look when I get home tonight. I have a couple of big ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sheilajeanne Report post Posted February 4, 2018 (edited) Here are some Tandy flower stamps that are pretty close to the one in the center of the flower: The J820, which is still available, likely comes the closest. https://www.google.ca/search?q=tandy+flower+stamps&rlz=1C1GGGE_enCA377&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjVp8TGtozZAhVGs1kKHSPcAX0QsAQIMA&biw=1236&bih=611#imgrc=FafGprwiJHtKWM: Edited February 4, 2018 by Sheilajeanne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

alpha2 Report post Posted February 4, 2018 (edited) Actually at that first link, there is a link among the pictures that is a match as far as I can tell. It's apparently a Tandy J787, but it says it's 5/8", is that too large? Edited February 4, 2018 by alpha2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TSes Report post Posted February 4, 2018 The Tandy V955 looks pretty close to the veiner you need. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thenrie Report post Posted May 24, 2018 (edited) Sorry I didn't keep up with this thread. I forgot I even started it. Anyway, I found most of the stamps I needed at Tandy, or close approximations. I bought a set of Chinese-made veiners, but wasn't real happy with them. I made the one stamp I could not find and it actually worked pretty well. I can't seem to get photos to upload to this site, so here's a link where I wrote the saddle repairs up on my blog: https://westerntrailrider.com/wordpress/blog/finished-my-repairs-on-another-old-saddle/ Edited May 24, 2018 by thenrie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
