Mockernut Hickory - The Classic?
« on: April 14, 2015, 11:14:42 am »
I have several staves of, this stuff was cut the first week of November 2014. I will bring some for trade if anyone is interested. If not I probably won't bring but a couple pieces. It is super straight as well, could probably use a snap line to layout your bow. It is currently well over 6' long to.  Let me know if you would be  interested. Patrick

P.S. I will have more at mojam too.

Missouri, where all the best wood is! Well maybe not the straightest!

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

Patrick, I'd be interested. I'm sure I'll have something you'll like for trade.

Good deal Pat, I'll put your name on one. I'm sure we can figure something out. Patrick

That would work wizard. Would you be interested in another for one of your ocean spray? I'll put your name on one as well. Should be at the classic about supper time on Thursday. I'll be in a silver 2012 Dodge ram with the ram boxes on the side. Patrick

I most likely will, but am unsure how much ocean spray I'll have with me up for grabs so lets go with one for now

No biggie if not wizard. I've just never worked any ocean spray. It's on my bucket list.

James, I'll throw in a few extra and put your name on a couple. What do you think you could have for trade? I could use some arrows if anyone wants to do something like that. Patrick

Nuttin' to trade at this time.  But maybe we could agree on agreeable wampum?  ;-)  On the other hand, could wait for MoJam.

Either way Knoll. I'll have more time to look them over by mojam. I'll probably be able to get them cleaned up a little bit more by then to. Patrick
