Braided Rawhide with Cowboy Artist Jeff Minor | Northwest Profiles (2009) | KSPS PBS

Meet Jeff Minor, a true cowboy artisan from Salmon, Idaho, who keeps the Old West alive through the meticulous art of rawhide and leather braiding. In this KSPS PBS Northwest Profiles episode, step into Jeff’s workshop and discover how tradition, craftsmanship, and cowboy culture come together in every hand-braided rein, bosal, quirt, and piece of working gear. With roots deep in ranching and a passion for preserving Western heritage, Jeff Minor creates gear that’s not only functional for working cowboys but also showcases fine artistry and craftsmanship. Each piece reflects a commitment to quality, tradition, and a way of life that’s as enduring as the mountains of Idaho. Produced by Scott McKinnon in 2009.
