Sorry, trying to kill two buzzards with one shot here.

1st question: Does anyone know out of all the books on saddlemaking, does any of them show on how to make the saddletree itself?  I'm eventually wanting to make saddles(starting with minature and half size) and not too many options for saddle trees.

2nd question: I've been trying to get this question answered for a while(not here but on other sites).  Does anyone know where I can find the information on making and attaching metal tips/throats to knife sheaths?  Ive tried on other forums/web searches, but have never been able to track down the information.

Sorry to ramble here.  As my brother,Troublesome River, posted over on Darksiders Den,  we just had our grandmother pass on, the funeral was last Saturday.  Between that and just starting a new job(went from 22 hours a week during the day to 40 hours a week overnight)  I'm still a little wiped out.
I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people, and I require the same of them--John Wayne, The Shootist.
