Bill outstanding job. Couldnt ask for anything more. KT

[TwoWalks Baldridge]

Bill seeing your work and others on this board are like having my own personal time machine sitting on the desk.  Beautiful work, it always sets a high bar for me to work toward, thanks.

[Wolf Tracker]

Bill nice work. That captures the one in the book nicely but still has your own style.

[Wolf Tracker]

John  that is excellent work on those grips. They look real nice on that USFA.

Dave  nice work on the knife. The two look great together.

Hey guys, I have next to zero experience with the other forums on this site. Maybe someone could tell me which forum I would want to use to talk about boots; specifically B Western boots.

Due to foot problems I can no longer wear traditional western boots. I need a taller toe box than most "cowboy " boots provide, but I need boots that will pass muster in the B Western SASS category.

Several people have suggested the Ariat brand  but I need a 13 Extra wide, and I haven't found any that size to try on. The other problem with them is the style that looks like it might work has a "sort of" lug sole that is not allow.ed

Others have suggested custom boots, but we're talking $750 just to begin a conversation. So, please point me toward the proper thread to discuss my options.  

Thanks, JD

JD, have you thought about some knee high moccasins, something like a plains boot,not sure but I think allowable and very comfortable.Dave

[JD Alan]

Hi Dave, Skip asked me the same thing, but I'm sure they won't work for B Western. I've got boots that work for the "normal" ranch hand look I go for, and for the Wild Bunch clothing, but I'm working on B Western as well.

Thanks for the shout out

Bill, thats a beautiful holster, I like that modell..
I´ve just made my first Cattleman out of the Will Ghormley pattern, I think its
a nice holster. Its dyed with Light brown, and a cote EVOO and Tan-kote.

Howdy Bill Logan & Boothill,

That's some great looking work you Gents have posted. Many thanks for sharing it with us.

[TwoWalks Baldridge]

Boothill, very nice.  I love the color and design of the holster and cuffs.  All you folks post some great pictures.  I have to get my camera fixed or get a new one.

Those look really good, Dalton. Very nice work. I wouldn't have thought of Corian, but that's a great idea. Can you drill them to take a screw-back concho? Here's a rig I made for my wife and matched the one-piece faux ivory grips with conchos (glued in with JB Weld) to carry a theme throughout. I made this rig before I learned about vinegaroon but it's still OK.

[Marshal Will Wingam]

Rossmaker, those holsters are really good. Good coloring and great patterns. Nice work.

Great scout rig, BH. The contrasting colors look nice. Also, I really like your Cattleman. Nice, rich color with those spots. It really looks good. Good job on both.

Beautiful Heilig copy, Bill. You really nailed that one. Very well done.

[Rossmaker]

Bill, great west texas reproduction looks amazing!!I just finished a west texas holster and money belt combo myself I have to get some pics on here though.

Bob, as always beautiful work! You really do great work always A+!!
