Bruce, beautiful restoration. Should be good another 27 years. I would REALLY like to see a video on replacing the padded seat and fleece. Thanks for your videos.
It’s always interesting to see how you accomplish various details like this. I still have a hard time imagining all the work that goes into a complete saddle. Thanks.
Clever approach to use the maul underneath the striking surface (around 05:59). It's an honor and privledge to see how these are made and finished, very many thanks for sharing these.
Thank You to my older TH-cam subscribers as well my new subscribers please be sure to comment and check in with me. Thank You! Thank You! Bruce Cheaney
Always enjoy watching you explain the ins and outs of Saddle work, Bruce. And your free-hand carving always amazes me, I durn near need a pattern to tie my shoes! 😊 More important, I've LEARNED THINGS watching your videos, so thank you!
The wood part is the saddle tree and it stays in and that is where the strength of the saddle comes from. Many kinds of woods are used for saddle tree making most common is Poplar and the covering is either rawhide or fiberglass / Kevlar. Thank You for asking!

@@JohnTBlock Awesome thank you so much!
Hey Bruce, does the wood part of the saddle apart of the leather? Or does it get separated once it's done?
