        I'll throw up a good strong second on this recommendation. He's up here in Centerville, reasonably priced (at least for my seat) and does good work; however, his hours are strictly Monday through Friday 8-4 so he's hard to contact

          He's even harder to contact without knowing his name

                      He shaped the bottom of the Saddlemen Double Bucket for our 850 to fit a 550 pan and removed about 2 inches of height in the process.

                      Does that count?

                          I would like to have some work done to the foam as well - nothing that drastic, but I imagine someone with experience could make a big improvement with a few small changes.

                          Steve - did he work on any of the seats currently in your stable, or just the one you mentioned above that was sold?

                            The only work he has done for me was two back rests.

                            The seat work was for a friend, and all the work on that seat was on the bottom of the foam, where it meets the pan.
