When placing an order, be sure to ask questions and please tell me about what you want in the saddle, as to the use intended. Please provide a telephone number so that I may call you and we can then discuss your order. Once you are ready to place the order, a deposit of $750.00 is required, for once the tree and materials have been ordered, this deposit is non-refundable. If you are requesting a special made tree, please allow at least 10 weeks for the tree to be made. In many cases, an in stock tree will be good and acceptable choice, and can often be had within a few weeks.

I invite all saddle customers, if they can, to come to the shop, where you can see your saddle in the stages of building, and can, when the groundseat is being installed, actually sit on the tree and check the seat being built, for comfort to you. During such 'sittings', minor adjustments to the groundseat can be made by using special knives, which can give greater comfort to you, the rider.
