The hand of God reaching down from the heavens clearing the roads, byways, and MUPS of all debris and other flat inflicting detritus?

You have a great talent! Thanks for sharing! Be prepared for orders.

Hmmmm, It would remind me of the old "digital prostate exam" every time I sat on it.
Nice work.

I think it's more like god is giving you a holy-reach-around.

Oh, and I'm curious....post pictures of your 'dream bike'.

Yeah, I call it the "grab-ass" seat. The stars are also put there on purpose. That is my sense of humor for you. I will get some pics of the bike listed soon. I am out of town until next week. Thanks for your interest.
As for the seats, this is my first attempt at a seat (with a couple practice peices of leather tooling before it). I plan on tooling a few more.

Oh and I forgot to mention that your leather tooling looks great! Your saddle has a lot of depth to it. I tried my hand at it many years ago, but it was some very simple stuff.
