Photograph a rare 19th–20th-century saddletree factory: rows of wooden lasts, vintage hand tools, milling machines and patinated wood grain that tell a craft story. Best light is side‑lit late afternoon or soft morning light through industrial windows to emphasize texture. Small museum in Madison’s historic district — check seasonal hours and request interior access; street parking nearby. Interiors are intimate and sometimes dim; respect exhibits and ask permission for close shots.
