Cinch Making 3 Day WorkshopNovember 6, 7 & 8, 2020
Three Day Cinch Making Class in Monroe, Georgia We are very proud to be hosting the Talented Pop Wagner for his 3 Day cinch making workshop! CAGBA members receive a $50 discount off the cost of the class.* The three-day class will address both newcomers to cinch making and those who are already proficient at it. There are three basic construction methods for cinch making. They are tied, woven and a combination of tied and woven. Those new to cinch making are introduced to tied cinches (or guitar straps) and encouraged to stick with that method until proficiency is attained. Mohair has been traditionally used to make cinches for Western saddles. The tied and woven methods can also be used in making English, Dressage, Endurance and Australian girths and breast collars as well. |

Besides cinches, girths and breast collars, one can create a number of other items including hatbands, belts, guitar straps and mini cinches. All of these possibilities will be addressed during the class.
The class will begin with a step by step demonstration of how to make a tied cinch or guitar strap, primarily addressing the beginning cinch maker however those already making cinches will benefit from this review. As the class continues, beginning cinch makers will be assisted with their tied cinches and experienced makers will be advised on their more advanced projects.
Participants will be provided with looms and hand tools for use during the class. If desired, looms and hand tools may be purchased as well. Written instructions for making a basic cinch loom as well a 17-strand tied cinch will also be provided along with a resource list for looms, hand tools and other cinch making supplies.
Materials for additional projects may also be purchased if desired.
