    You have my attention. I'm dead on the water on mine 12 builds due to the fact that the local yahoos can't bring any 2 inch Sugar Pine in.

    Thanks Duke. This time I'm somewhat copying an old saddle I picked up. I'll post a pic of it tomorrow, an interesting old piece

    I haven't, I'll have to go look. It's been 30 years since I built any, I dont care for the ones for sale today, so I had Randy, at Timberline, make me some trees. I want the tree to fit as good as the saddle I'm riding, easier on my horses I think, Randy made them with rocker and a twist, just like any good riding saddle
