   If we're going to branch off into other leather   
   goods, then I can think of several in my immediate   
   vicinity who have big reputations for saddle making,   
   gun scabbards and etc. Jake Wolfhart is one of the   
   "elitists" with his own shop in Capitan, NM.

   I can't recall the name of the person who does similar   
   work in the White Oaks area. But I don't know of any   
   local bootmakers, other than the ones in El Paso   
   and Juarez.
