Hello from Missouri

I did leathercraft as a kid in the 1960s and 1970s - mostly kits and carving Craftaid patterns - and I returned to leatherwork a few years ago. I am interested in English saddles and tack, general construction methods with leather, and the use and maintenance of leathercraft tools. Most of the books on saddlery and bridlework that I've been reading are out of print and becoming rare. I hope to connect with other leatherworkers who are keeping these arts alive. I'll post a few things I've made.
