Not much termites here, but there is some dust collected on the two bows that are on my bench.

However there is hope

I have been diligently setting short measureable goals each day and those two are in site. My last "New Year" reselution was to complete everything that I started.

What could I have been thinking.

However the good news is that I am actually making progress and doing it. I have finished 4 bows this year and also some smaller projects and got three boxes of promissed goodies out and mailed off last week.

I know somewhere in this world someone just choked on there coffee. Now if I can figure out who's bows these are that I have.

Now gosh darn it Pappy,,,,,,Don't be telling me "No Rush" I'm trying to be diligent and those kind of comments are just enabling my general nature of procrastination.

On the other hand ,,,,,just think how well seasoned the wood is by now!

I know Brian,(koan) has one or some?, hillbilly, that has time to go scareing animals at Cade's place this weekend has, maybe, a couple more?

Just like to get things going on this at least once a year.

It all seem to be coming together now.

Sure would be nice if we could find them all, or even find all of the participants. $:-\$

It has been years since I've seen any of the bows. I think Eddie might have one or 3.

I sure would like to see the one I backed for you Pat.It was pretty wet at that time high in MC,

;DShould be dry by now.

That is the only bow I have ever backed , with another piece of wood anyway.

Maybe you can talk Eddie into bringing them when he comes next month.

I still have two, Been trying to figure out how they belong to. One of these days when I learn how to make a bow I'm going to give it a try.

They are still in good shape. I think the dust collecting on them has helped the moisture content. In all seriousness. I think one is Pappy's and the other??? They are both Osage staves and I did get tip overlays on one of them. Maybe I'll blow the dust off the paper work and find out the particulars

Keenan, Hillbilly and Brian(Koan) have them all.

This is real friendship, you don't see anyone here getting pissy over a bow taking a LITTLE longer than it should.

We are the poster children for Patience

Heck now that it's been a few years and several surgeries later I can't remember what the stave was that I sent out anyway, so it just adds to the suspense. At the pace we are going all our bows will look like the Iceman's bows and they will be historical artifacts!
