Merryben - Regarding your post "old western
saddles he wants to have restored and repaired"
He should be able to find a saddle maker close by. Check with the feed
stores in the area they should be able to point him/you in the right
direction. If not and he finds himself close to LA he might check out
Broken Horn Saddelry
A very large Tack Store the size of a warehouse catering to many
equine disciplines. There are hundreds of saddles (new and used) in the store.
They also have several shops within and adjacent to the main store where
they do repairs/restoration and or can make almost anything you can
think/dream of for the horse on-site.
Having many craftsmen under one roof it's interesting to go
here just to watch these people at work.
Located in the urban sprawl of Los Angeles, they list
their store location as being in Baldwin Park. In LA it's
hard to tell when you've left one town and entered into another. Broken
Horn is one block East of where Freeways 605
/I-10 Intersect in Los Angeles.
