Re: [RC] Crupper solution for saddle with no crupper ring? - Ed & Wendy Hauser"...Is there any way to screw a ring into the back of the cantle?..." Any good tack repairer or source of saddle hardware will have "D" rings set up to screw into saddles etc. Your local hardware store will also have a supply of stainless steel wood screws. Simply drill a hole about the same diameter as the root of the wood screw, lubricate the screw with beeswax, stick grease (the kind sold for car door latches), or even damp hand soap and screw it on. On some saddles it is easier to rivet the "D" ring to the skirt. You can also get (or make) adapters that attach the ring to the stirrup brackets. There are lots of ways to do it, none expensive or complicated.
