Marie Maybe if you get in this trade next year and with Sadie maybe we can start seeing some of the softer side of bow making. We are just a bunch of cave men that just grunt scrape wood and play with snakes  :o ::)  Of coarse if you, Lulyn, Sadie. Miss Joanie and a few others get to making bows. us guys might have to get out and cut more trees. ::) :'(

aha, now yr figuring it out Keenan! why would us gals go and get all dirty, sweaty and risk breaking a nail when, with a wink and a smile, you fellas will do it for us? :laugh: >:D :laugh:

Been out of pocket for a couple days. Got my name though and the more I try to figure out what to do the more I think my recipient might get a 2fer.

Yeah, I'm with you Pappy.  Just trying to think of what to build.  My recipient seems to like everything.  Now, I'm forced to come up with something on my own, maybe a bit unique.  Gotta pull on the 'ol creative side of the brain.

Hmmmm.....

Soy, i'm interested in that one too! I got the stave from a guy who wanted to build a bow but never did, The stave was on top of his shed for 8 years and completely black. When i cut an end off the rings were shocking, perfect and about 1/8 to 3/16" thick. The back was so badly checked i had to go down about 4 growth rings which didn't leave me with much wood, we'll see what happens.
