Tack repair

I saw in the latest update that you're considering a way to repair tack to extend the use. I am hoping that this is the case as there is some special tack that I would hate to accidently lose.
My suggestion is that after the tack has reached it's use limit it does not simply disappear. Making a new qualifier of "worn out" in front of the tack in your storage, and that it can't be equipped would be a great way to make sure tack you want to repair doesn't disappear on you. In the storage area there could be a button choice to either destroy or repair the tack which would also allow people to get rid of the tack they don't want to repair.
Edit: Also gems adding just +1 use seems like such a waste to me. It's 2 ingots to add gem to a saddle that will just disappear if we can't repair it? Multiply that by the 100+ horses I want to put tack on and it's not worth it if the tack will simply disappear. Until there is some kind of repair system in place I won't be adding any more gems to my tack.
I want to add that I, personally, don't really like the appearance of gems on my tack so I don't use gems for tack. If there could be an addendum to non-encrusted tack that lets you add one additional use for the same price as it is to encrust it I feel that would be a benefit.
I strongly agree with tack not disappearing from the storage room when its used up, rather going to an alternate page within the storage room such as "damaged tack" where it can sit so you can look at it and/or so it can be repaired by the user.

I really like the idea of repairing or removing older tack. I remember working in a place that had a number of school tack bridles that were makeshift, usable bits and pieces. The idea brought back that memory.
Also I'd think the gems themselves wouldn't be so easily distroyed. If any tack becomes unrepairable I'd think gems would be recoverable to go ahead and attach to another item. Seems a waste to bother otherwise.
