And to clarify, I used play-doh, not silly putty. My mistake.

If you're interested in doing this it's pretty simple.

1. Flatten out play-doh to about 1cm thick (I used a rolling pin)
2. Put it on a hard and flat surface like a wooden chair
3. Put the plastic wrap over it
4. Sit down for 30 seconds (thinner pants the better as it won't mess up the imprint as much)
5. Stand up and measure from the center of the each sit bone imprint.

Boom, now you know the width of your sit bones.
I stand corrected. Where there is a will, there is a way. But now how do you convert that number to a saddle width?
