Sweet thread idea! Also, I love the striped saddle!

Here's my first Brooks. A Pro with the nose trimmed. It came to me that way, but it had lived a long life before that.

My B.17 replaced the Pro. This one got trimmed, tied, and carved. Very comfortable.

I gave a similar treatment to the Flyer on my Pugsley.

Sanded the the paint off, trimmed it, applied a couple coats of amber shellac, and instead of using laces I used some brass bolts.
