You are not charging near enough. The quality of your work is very good. I was surprised at how good the video was to.
What I’ve done is epoxy and rivet a wooden filler piece to the top of the metal horn and that way I have something I can nail the leather too before putting my top piece on
You did a beautiful job.
Great content, thanks for sharing.
Lots of cool techniques in this one! Subscribed!
If you're like me, that little dot was the first mistake you ever made & you're still waiting to make you 2nd. LOL. Easy fix for it as you showed everyone. You need to charge more as you are not paying yourself enough for these days & times.
You are working to cheap in my estimation. May I ask what head knife youvare using? Thanks for the video!!!

Head knife is Knipschield Leather Tools
That was great.
I appreciate these videos. Would love to see a cantle binding on a seat replacement. I took off the cantle binding & it tore. I’ve got to make a new one 😢
Hi Sr, I would like that you recommend me a nice set of tools to buy for my fathers birthday he is a craftman too and he lives in Cuba and those kind of tools dont exist there, and I like to buy a good decent set of draw tools to give him as gift,thank you in advance.
Excelente👍👍👍
I would like to know where your from. I have two saddles that needs the horn done on them. You done amazing job
Fantastic job! How can you instead recover/rebuild the braided rawhide cover?
Love the work and video one question what is the pattern you used to cu😅t the three pieces to build the horn cover
La dirección trabaja muy bien Amigo
I can't find that hook/stitching awl from Weaver. Do you have a link?
your awl from leather wranglers... what are the size and blade length that you think works best?

1.75" is the length of my awl. The width is the same no matter what length you order from Leather Wrangler
I'm having a really hard time finding a saddle with a short enough horn ... Is there a way to shorten them if they aren't metal?

Matt said, "No. You need to talk to the tree maker to get a tree built with your specs on horn measurements."
I think you work too cheap.
Man, talk about distracting! Soooo many guys im seeing lately in hats that look like they're wearing them BACKWARDS, DUDE!!! WTH!
