9 cabeza del fuste
(Sp. model spelled same [kaβésa ðel fúste] cabeza [see above] plus del 'of the' plus fuste < Latin fustem 'stick, staff, club')Watts glosses this term as the head part of a saddletree. Santamaría and Islas concur. Both reference fuste as the main part of the saddle to which other pieces are attached. It may also be called the frame of the saddle. The cabeza del fuste is the front piece or 'head' attached to the fuste. In English, cabeza del fuste may be shortened to "fuste" or "fusty," although these may also refer to the saddletree. See also fuste.Off one's head, or crazy. -
