Saddle Update--second try






I was not happy with the first saddle tree and dumped it. I think the saddle bars were too far apart, and the fork looked strange. The first photo is before the saddle tree's first firing in the toaster oven.



The second photo was taken after the horn was added but before the second firing. This saddle tree is much prettier than the first one. Baked twice, it miraculously fits the horse. Now to sew some leather on top of it.




Still can't decide which leather to use, so I will have to see which hangs better over the saddle tree and which leather wil fit later.


The last photo shows the saddle tree as it now fits the horse. Much prettier than the first saddle tree made I think.
