In this episode we visit with Rod Nikkel who had a 20 year career of building some of the finest handmade saddle trees on the market. Listen to Rod's story and how he got into the business of trees.  His website is a powerful resource for all of us saddle makers out there for tree information and saddle fitting. Although he is retired from saddle tree making, he and his wife continue to maintain their website to keep the quality saddle fitting information out there for us all to benefit from. www.rodnikkel.com www.westernsaddlefit.com
