Your but looks way better than rio rondos!!
Wow, you really inspire me. If I ever feel lazy, I just come here, and you inspire me to keep going. I’m pretty sure you laugh at my work, but hey, I try.
I might try to make a costume for my peter stone. Yours look lovely.
If you have any other tips please let me know!

Where do you get the hardware! I live in Michigan and it’s so boring here 😦 And cold. We don’t have very many stores that even have the basic schleich. sometimes I’m allowed to by online tho so that’s how I get the un-available schlich. we don’t get any of the schleich tack and accessories tho.

  Most of my hardware comes from Rio Rondo or The World of Model Horse Collecting on ebay 🙂

It’s really good! What type of leather do you recommend for making English saddles?

  This was made from tooling and skiver leather. Both can be found for sale at riorondo.com 🙂

Hey! I was wondering if you could make a YouTube channel (if you don’t already have one) and make tutorials on this stuff. Thanks! 🙂

Amazing work! I have a question, how the heck do you use Tacky Wax!?!? I got some,but every time I try to use it nothing sticks to it,and then it makes all my stuff all greasy and gross,it’s really frustrating. So anyways could you give me a few tips on how you get it to work? Thanks.

  I actually use dental wax! It’s not as sticky as Tacky Wax (which is both a good and bad thing) but it can be just as frustrating to use. Sometimes I’ll use more than I need and then scrape off the excess with a toothpick.
