It will be difficult for me to make a saddle that's smaller or lighter than this one and still be usable. After many failed attempts, this one is pretty close to being the BARE MINIMUM.
I will need to add a belt. I will possibly sew on a fixed bridge (the webbing sling used as bridge in pictures is way too long).
I might also add one more vertical strap under my butt and possibly a vertical strap on each side (or fold the "loop"ends over and sew them into loops on each side)
Here's my version of bare minimum.
Sewed from 10 yards of 2" black polyester webbing. I doubled up in the back of it from the outside of each vertical strap all the way across the back portion for strength (mostly in case my hand sewing isn't up to par).
