I’d bet it smells incredible in that shop with all that leather

If I wasn’t 54 years old I’d love to learn to do this kind of work. Just amazing to watch.

Haha. The intro with the pissed off dog was awesome

Hi all. Mr. D. This saddle is so very crisp. 👍🏽

I would say whom ever you made that saddle for he or she are very happy people.... I love your beautiful designs the color you choose, and your amazing skills....

Nothing like a pro and his craft

Okay, there's drool running out of the corner of my mouth. 😲 That's masterclass stuff right there. I am humbled and honoured to see this. Thank you Stay safe

Denny you are an unbelievable artist! Best regards, Richard….

Mr.Lowe, most people would call a saddle maker a craftsman....you sir, are an artist! Beautiful work!

Hello, Sir. I have been doing the same thing, but I do mostly Bike work. But we all know that Bikes and Hot Rods go hand-in-hand. It's amazing how similar the crafts are, and one can bleed-over into several other fields. Weather it's seats, saddles, dashboards, or belts and bags, the leather tooling industry is very well diverse. Once we learn the craft and art of it, we can usually find a customer in any walk of life. I love watching Masters of their craft, and usually compare them to my own way of doing things. It's weird how different styles are, when you compare a self-taught to professionally taught craftsman. This is how I learn different ways of doing things. I was really happy to have noticed your comment here. It shows me that I am not alone. Good day, Sir, and good luck!

I was a Wheelwright Apprentice 50 years ago, there a beautiful Saddle Shop in the same company. Every once in a while I get a chance to go over there and watch those Saddle makers. I always thought it was some kind of magic how those ‘Ol boys moved that Leather around like they did. I’m still convinced watching this that you Sir have been given that same magic.

A beauty! Thanks for let me watch! Incredible artist.

wow wow and wow amazing to see this process mind blowing

Listen guys the show was fantastic! Denny's art is incrediblly beautiful. And the Metro Lion version that that wild beast meanly growling... is way and above of all Hollywood presentations. What is the name of that fantastic version of Leo. His name should be written in pure gold.

The craftsmanship is absolutely stunning. I may have to buy a saddle before buying a horse. Simply beautiful!

If anyone ever questions the cost of a handmade saddle, just have them watch this video. Great work, Sir!!!

I’m planning on making one my self when I have everything I need

Mr. Lowe, I’ve never been so impressed in my lifetime, and I’m 63, by artistry of any genre, than by your artistry and the making of this saddle!!! It is absolutely beautiful and brings me to tears the sheer beauty of it!

OMG, Never thought I'd see such beautiful saddle making again. For seven years before I was drafted I tooled and made saddles under the watchful eye of a saddle maker named Wade Warren. He designed the Warren Roper, a slick fork tree much lick the one you show here, and the tooling design was a wield rose with a hummingbird. I've never seen better saddlery . Thanks for sharing.

Это какая должна быть лошадь чтобы носить такое седло . Просто супер !

If Denny were in Japan he would be considered a national treasure. Unbelievable skills.

Wow. To me, the highest order of leather work.

I don't even ride and I want to now - just to see the saddles. Excellent work!!!

Excellent craftsmanship! Well made video!

Only one word discribes his work. OUSTANDING !!!!!!

WOW!! Such beauty and amazing skill.

That is a nice saddle. All the time I was watching I was thinking about my Dad who repaired boots shoes and saddles and tac. As well as I worked for a short time pushing a broom for a saddle company but I never saw a saddle assembled from start to finish. Good job 👏

True craftsmanship. Master of his craft. Amazing work sir.

Master craftsman. Wow!

That was superbly done. I want to make a saddle. Believe me you make it look so easy. I used to make custom radius staircases, from walnut. Double bull nose with fancy custom handrails. I just want to make a rough out leather western saddle. I still ride I am 76. Great job DENNY good hands that create with care. I know how that is when the wood got silky-smooth as I shaped it.

When you gain a customer because of price, you will lose them for the same reason..... BUT... when you gain a customer because of service, you have them forever.

Thanks for sharing amazing workmanship. Happy Trails

@SpringfieldLeather

6 жыл бұрын

Hi, Thomas! Thanks for your question. I spoke to Denny Lowe about your question, and he is guessing that your saddle is a little too short. Based on how a saddle is constructed, the fenders must be placed a certain distance up on the saddle to attach to the stirrups. If the saddle is too short, the fenders may seem to sit too far back for the rider.
