Finished!!
We are no longer building saddle trees, but we have two videos about how Western saddles fit horses available on our westernsaddlefit.com website.
Well, a combination of being embarrassed that I hadn't finished this job I started in October, and a long phone call with someone who didn't mind (or didn't say they minded) the noise of whamming with a chisel and mallet in the background resulted in me finally finishing getting the thick layers of varnish off the table this afternoon. No, it isn't perfect, but a tree isn't going to try to slide off the mountain onto the floor again, and that was the whole point!
