    Gary,

    Great saddle even if you did try to hide it with a fuzzy picture!

    Look forward to that build Gary. Is that the horse drawn Hurst your brother wants I have looked at some but chickened out of building one as I already have too many build to finish or start at the moment.

    The saddle looks good but if you find time would appreciate a better photo.

    G'Day Gary, No complaints from this end as I just appreciate the photos because they show & tell me what and how things have been made and put together.
    Just keep it all coming sir.... Cheers, crowie

    We always appreciate whatever photo's you put up Gary, I hope it was not me when I asked for another one.

    A little thing I do when I want to take a photo of something small is to stand back then zoom in to the item rather than get close and take one, hope this helps.

    This is where I preferred the old type camera's that had manual controls you could always get a descent photo (Just can't get a grip with these digital ones).

    thanks men for your re: that is a good thought i'll try that zooming in i like that i should have read this before i took these photos lol hope this comes out ok or better i took 5 shots and this one is the one i chose i've steel got some work on this but for my frist try i'm ok with it but the next one will come out better i'm sure in this scale it's hard to cut the lather and to fit it on tight but all the right parts is in the right place i think i could make a real one with out the trouble i've had on this miniature one the tree was the hard part and that's what i'll do better thin just think thin in the bars, thats the part that sets on the horse i made them a bit thick it looked good tell i started the lather then they got in the way so the little file came in handy well here it is...
