1. Basic Sculpture Making:The basic structure is made using steel wires to give it a shape of desired animal and size. The size could be anywhere between 4" to-24" tall.2. Applying Paper Pulp:
Now the paper pulp is applied to this basic structure using adhesive made of tamarind seeds. It is then dried in the sun or with the help of electric heaters till the sculpture is completely moisture-free. A nicely dried sculpture is less likely to catch fungus.
3. Mounting Leather : As a third step, the leather is mounted on this structure. This leather is usually a goat or sheep leather boiled with various tree barks for proper conditioning. This is the most crucial step during the whole process and tests the real workmanship of our craftsmen.
4. Coloring & Polishing: Now, water colors are used to give these finished sculptures the desired color. After color application a coat of wax polish is applied to buff the sculptures and give them the shine they deserve.
5. Mounting Accessories: The sculptures are almost ready to dazzle your eyes. As a final step, these wonderful designs are complemented with accessories like leather saddle, brass knuckles etc. as per specific designs. With this step, manufacturing part is over and the sculptures are ready.

Stock men traditionally ride horses, use working dogs and a stock whip for stock work and mustering.
Stock man is the name given to a person who looks after the livestock on a large farming property known as a station and owned by a grazier or a grazing company.

They may also be the persons employed at abattoirs, feedlots, on live export ships or with stock and station agencies. Station employees, including stockmen, who work at a number of different occupations within their work, are also known as 'station hands'. Australia has its own Stockman hall of fame to remember its men and women of the country.
Leather plays a big part in the life of the stock man,his working kit usually has ridding chaps,boots,belt and stockwhip and topped of with a leather or wool felt wide brim hat.

His stock saddle and kit are usually all hand made with good quality leather and craftmanship.


Trainee stockmen are known as "jackaroos" (trainee stockwomen are known as "jillaroos").
