Re: [RC] [RC] Custom made tack? - Nancy Mitts
I think there are several of us on the list who do this type of work.
I have actually made a couple similar to what you described. I used 2" black
beta for the chest piece (I only have that in black), and used the brown for
the other straps.

BlankDoes anyone know where I can have a custom tack item made? My husband
uses a racing-style breastplate on a Sharon Saare saddle. It is neither
English nor western; has one simple band across the chest, attaches to the
saddle with straps that buckle into the D-rings (I would add snaps for
quick convenience), and has a thinner strap that goes over the neck at the
withers, holding the breast part up into position. Complicated description
for a simple item. I would like it made in brown beta biothane, and have
the breast part made of something without harsh edges, rather like the
Wintec English leathers. Actually, on of those would be just about right
for the breast strap...about the right width and without cut edges. They
become shiny with use, however. Who of all the tack suppliers makes custom
items?
