Full floral wade

This saddle is going to a good friend, Kade Martin, in Wyoming.  This is my first fully tooled saddle.  Want to say thanks to both Cary Schwarz and Bob Park for putting out such great products to help those of us that aren't as artistically gifted.  This saddle is built on a Keith Gertsch tree.  Dimensions: 16 1/2" seat, 6 3/8" x 5 5/8" horn, 91.5* bars, 5" shovel cantle.  This turned out to be about all I could handle while attending vet school. I finished it just in time for finals and I know my wife is happy it's done cause now she gets her husband back in the evenings and on the weekends.  

Dean Oliver with a wood horn going to Montana

This saddle is going to Jacob Rose in Montana.  It's on a Bill Bean tree with a Dean Oliver front end, 16" seat, 4.5" round cantle, 3" by 3" post horn.  It has an inskirt rigging set a little ahead of 7/8 and 5" morans from Trina Weber.  You'll have to excuse the messy garage in the background, but we are finally getting a little rain here in Oklahoma and it kept me inside to take some pictures.  I want to thank Jacob for his business and loyalty.  This is the second saddle he's gotten from me and my dad. 

Christmas gifts

Here are two belts I made for my wife Micah and daughter Jonnie.

 

Rough Out Wade

This saddle is going to Chad Goins in Dillon, Montana.  Rough out wade on Bill Bean tree.  16" seat, 4.5" cantle, 3.75" x 3" horn, on 91.5* bars.  It's got an inskirt rigging set just ahead of 7/8 and 5" morans from Trina Weber.  As you can see the small amount of snow we got yesterday didn't stick around too long.  Typical Oklahoma winter since we've been here.

Quarter breed floral TM roper

Here's my latest saddle finished up a couple days ago.  I've been working on it through out this fall semester of my second year of vet school as time permitted.  This saddle is going to Ted Walker in Idaho.  Many thanks to Ted for his business.
It's a TM roper with a small post horn on a Bill Bean tree.  Quarter breed floral with an inskirt rigging set slightly ahead of 7/8.  16" seat, 4" x 12" round cantle with 1 1/4" cheyenne roll, and Trina Weber stirrups. Hope you enjoy this Christmas season and more especially remember the true meaning of it by making Christ the center of it.        

Last saddle of the summer.

Here's a youth saddle that I made for a lady in Utah about this time last summer.  I got a call from her this April saying that the saddle was stolen while she had her trailer in getting it cleaned up after the winter months.  She never did recover the saddle and asked if there was any way I could make her another one just the same.  Fortunately I did have the time this summer to build her another one.

She did give me permission however to make some minor changes if I felt inclined to do so.  So here is this year's version of the same saddle.  It's on a Bill Bean tree.  TM roper swells at 11.5", 13" seat, 3.5" X 11" cantle, and a #6 horn.  The original had a #4 horn but I felt a #6 would look better on such a small saddle.  I also changed up my floral patterns a bit.  The stirrups are a youth sized 2.5" visalia made by Trina Weber and the saddle has 6 1.5" conchos and two fork screws made by Rob Shaezlein.  

Here's a couple belts I've made in the last little while.

I don't make a lot of belts but I do find myself making a few here and there.  Here are some pictures of the last two I've made here recently.  If you're interested in a belt, let me know and I'll give you a quote.  I'll get my price list updated here shortly but are the prices I'm planning on charging.
Fully flowered, no stitch line, no lining: $185
Fully flowered, with stitch line and lining: $200
Full basket or crazy stamp, no stitch, no lining: $125
Full basket or crazy stamp, with stitch and lining: $140

I've also gotten a bunch of orders for a one side doctoring bag here in Montana so I'll going to go ahead and try and keep a couple on hand if you're interested in ordering one.  I'm charging $100 for a plain smooth out or rough out bag.  It comes with two divisions.  You can fit a 500 mL bottle of LA in one side, some syringes and chalk in the middle and another good sized bottle in the other side.

I also have made a few small wallets.  You'll just have to call me and I'll give you a quote based on what you want done but here's one that I did recently.
