Though my Plumeria Saddle fit Hotske perfectly, and I made it with care for us to enjoy, I did sell it to a customer.  So to start over, I ordered a custom tree from Steele, and have begun to build.  Deadline for completion is the Upcountry Fair in June 2011.  (Started in February, completed in late May)  My video series on braiding the awe awe or wili omo ku is complete:  Click HERE to view YouTube videos of the saddle making process.
