      Dope… Are you getting nickel ones made as well, or only brass?

        50% will be nickel coated once I have approved the design.

          I am always on the nickel-side of hardware, but when I see those buckles I dont care about the color.

                  OK, G! If so I'm going to add a set to my next order. Those are the best looking buckles I've seen.

                          Very nice, and +1 on the technical drawings.

                              Probably too early but…any idea on price if you could do horse engineers? Under 1000?

                                  Update on the buckle.  The prong (or tongue) is too large a gauge.  The frame is fanfeckintastic, so we are proceeding with the stamping, but we will put a finer wire prong on the production version.

                                      Not Shell.  We will use the area between the shells and the fronts - it is called the "Strip".  This allows us to get nice thick horse, the fronts (FQHH) do not yield thick enough leather for booting.

                                      I have heard this called the "butt" as well as the "strip."

                                      Think it, be it.

                                        Somebody I know has a pair of these coming in shortly. Amongst other things. 😉

                                        One configuration I've never seen is a Jobmaster lacetoe upper in conjunction with either the narrow or MP last. Potentially because it can't be done?
