This is a close-up of a set of roping cuffs I created for a good friend in Michigan. He told a story about when he was a young child, his father bought a dump truck from out west somewhere and drove it home. Behind the seat of the dump truck, he found a set of roping cuffs and cowboy boots.

He ended up trading the roping cuffs to a friend, but always regretted it. So I made him a set with Oregon Lace stampwork, and conchos out of 13 oz. saddle skirting (just to see if I could do it). Nowhere near practical, but lots of fun to do.

Don't recommend 13 oz to work in such a rounded form for cuffs, but the cuffs themselves are surprisingly comfortable.

Enjoy!

I appreciate the feature. I really do!

However you do realize these roping cuffs are worn on the arms, and not the feet, don't you? Kinda puzzled on that one.

Glad you liked it though! :D

LOL, no I didn't realize. I do searches for specific terms relating to whatever it is I feel like featuring and then pick my favorites out of the ones I find. They must've come up under something that I searched for and I just assumed that's what they were <g>. It's a nice pic regardless, lol.

LOL. No problem ... thanks!
