The books are now open again!
After a huge influx of orders last year, I stopped taking orders. I hate having a huge wait time!
But those orders are now fulfilled and I'm ready to take your order. A hard wearing work fender, or a wade for the western horsemanship riders. From standard trees, through to the fully custom route for those hard to fit horses and mules. Message or call to discuss your needs

A gorgeous full bridle package from November that I can now share. Didn't want to spoil the Christmas surprise!
Hermann oak leather, turquoise accented buckles and conchos, and weighted, flat-grip reins in turquoise appaloosa. A nice little copper and stainless steel snaffle to finish it off.

Two custom wades off the bench today. A big thank you to Libby N Norman of Wattus-Cormick trees for making these full custom fit trees possible - including a 15" seat on 21" bars. You guys are legends!

Who doesn't love chocolate?
A lovely inlaid padded-seat fender ready to package up for posting. Bling conchos, some stamped details here and there, and a removable "monkey grip" to customer specs. I'm pretty happy with this one!
