Just because it's PUURRRDDYYY!
We are no longer building saddle trees, but we have two videos about how Western saddles fit horses available on our westernsaddlefit.com website.
Here is a picture of the tree we mentioned in a blog post a while ago - in all its glory...
The horn is an exposed, polished bronze # 1 horn made by Herb Bork of Bork Saddlery Hardware.
Very showy horn!
The tree is a Visalia 3B – 3 ½” stock thickness on an 8” slick fork. It has a 5” tall, 12 ½” wide, 40 degree Taylor cantle.
So shiny, you can see your face in it!!
Just something else a little different...
It is SO pretty (thank you, Rod) and I want to ride in it so badly right NOW, but the saddle and tooling must do justice to the horn, so it will take longer, and I can't even start it until I get two almost-finished custom saddles out the door, so it sits on my worktable (with a weight on it) looking beautiful and taunting me daily. Aaaarrrgggghhhhh!!!
