The Craftable Horse Armor and Saddles mod (CHA&S for short) adds a couple new crafting recipes to the standard allotment found in Minecraft. With these, you can make your own different types of horse armor, as well as saddles, without needing to get lucky in a random dungeon or temple to get your hands on these goods. Because you can make the armor and saddles yourself, you can tame horses and start riding much earlier than you would normally be able to in Minecraft. Because the mod is relatively new, it works just fine with the latest versions of Minecraft – no waiting for an update with this one.
The CHA&S mod is about more than just making your single player experience a little easier. If you like to play online and you frequent servers where underground dungeons and temples have all been raided already, this mod represents the only way you’ll get to ride a horse on such a server. It’s a great utility that allows you to make useful utilities, a point which makes many players very happy with this mod. Thankfully, the recipes are pretty easy to figure out too, so you shouldn’t have any difficulty lining things up just right in your crafting window to get what you want.
What should be noted is that unlike armor for players, armor for horses works a little differently. While iron armor is more durable and provides more protection when you’re talking about people, horses actually get more armor from gold, which provides about 8% more damage reduction overall than iron. Diamond is still clearly the best material, as it provides nearly 150% the defense of gold armor. Even though you can craft armor and saddles with this mod, you still need to dig up the resources to make the goods, and this will take some time.

Can you craft Name tags?
In 1.9 the original recipe will produce the saddle, but won’t allow it to be picked up from the crafting table.
According to CurseForge, the first saddle recipe (5 leather and 3 iron ingot) is an alternative recipe enabled in a config file. I tested with what CF called the original recipe, which is three leather in the top, one ingot in each of the bottom corners, and one string on each middle side (like a sort of rope for the ingots). This recipe works.
Same problem as above.
hey, I tried to craft the saddles in-game and it didn’t show up. I am using everything 1.7.10, so it should work. HELP?!?!?!
Hey… The horse armor works but the saddle does not… I am following your instructions but it is not registering??? am I doing something wrong.. I am using forge for 1.8 and I am using the 1.8 version of this…
