Please keep at it Darwin. Somebody is waiting for that bow every day!

you can do it Darwin, got almost a month, I work outdoors too, when it's raining I stand under the garage door
failure is an option, everyone fails, it's how you handle it that matters.

Yep, its getting down to the wire, and my baby may ship near the deadline, but one way or another she'll make it out the door. I got the motivation kicking in.  ;D

Here's where I am right now.  55 1/2 n2n, 50# @ 18".  It's a bendy handle bow.  Paralell to just past mid-limb, double taper to 1/2 tips.
Osage of course.  It's 17.1 oz.  My calculations say it should be 14.5 when finished.

I need the get the middle 1/3 bending more.

I started sealing a maker-upper swap bow last night. Im tickled pink so far. Its a real looker already. Cant wait to add a few more coats and stitch a grip...............I don't want to let this one go....


Pics or it's not true...  >:D


Oh its true my north FLA friend. Someday you will see it in person, you can almost bet on it.......No, its not for you either!

HA! I am a very patient grasshopper. Plus I'm not sure those "gunships" could pull my desired draw weight so maybe I am glad  >:D >:D >:D




:) but in all seriousness you know i'd love a pearly bow :)
