Rachel Fail Custom Tack

Back in July, leaving from the Black Hills in SD, we stopped in Great Falls, MT for a couple nights to visit family.  We stayed at  The Paard Yard  which was one of the nicest places we got to stay on our entire trip.  The couple who owns it are so nice, and I felt like my horses were not only happy, but also safe, which is a big deal if you're not with your rig 24/7 during a layover.     The views are absolutely incredible, a good example of Western Montana.  Just a few minutes from the highway, but up on the hill away from everything, we were so happy staying there and the horses enjoyed the layover. We explored Great Falls with the family, checking out the springs and the dam. Then we were off to Bow, WA for a week, and my brother's wedding.  It was wonderful, and the week flew by too quickly.   I also got to see my old friend Cailin at the wedding, I don't get to see her enough for sure.  Maybe now that I'm on the same side...

  When we bought the house in North Carolina in 2022, I finally had a real workshop.  A leather business that started in my living room down in Florida to make cool tack for my friends, and quickly took over my bedroom and garage, finally had room to spread out.  I'm sad to say Rob's Coast Guard career has once again prompted a big move, and probably will again soon, so I've decided to make things more mobile. This is now the shop of Rachel Fail Custom Tack.   What was once a 4 horse trailer, is now a full leather shop. I even tackled a new lighting technique with this trailer.  I also built a huge frame from totes full of supplies. I'll be getting a weight ticket this week, anyone want to take bets on how much it weighs? I have guesses, but we will see how close I am.  It's been a long couple weeks getting this done, starting from the bare frame. Tomorrow, I need to install the rooftop AC, which after this past week's high temps and humidity, I'm real...
