Rebuilding a Saddle

This saddle had been sitting in a barn for 20 years with no attention. It came to Circle E Ranch in very poor shape
with missing conchas, rotted stirrup leathers and moth-eaten sheepskin. The saddle was taken apart completely
cleaned, oiled and rebuilt to the delight of our customer, Ron Chapman, a popular Dallas radio personality.
