No worries Fred. I was just saying. If others want and agree with those stipulations that's cool. The trade is for people that want to participate.

I think it would go a long way towards the main purpose of the trade, creating more of a sense of community with everybody having to post their bow at various stages amd make comments. That's always a huge help for newbies to see all types of different bows being posted and critiqued and to have it done to their own bows. Like everybody says, it's not just about giving and receiving a bow. Half of it is the process of getting to the finished bow with everybody helping along the way.

Huisme was on again last night, still no word. I have a sneaking suspicion that someone(s) may be avoiding me. I was unavailable last night to call him, but I will try again tonight. So far I have unanswered messages from Mo_Coon-catcher, Huisme, and Steelslinger. At least give me the common decency to say **** you.  >:D As the last ones to receive a bow are not on my list, I don't know what the full story is. Mo_coon-catcher and Patrick deserve to at least know they are going to get a bow sent eventually. As my end of the trade with Blaflair2 is still technically open, I am not as worried about me.

Huisme, Please respond to the messages that have been sent to you. There is NO excuse to not at least message me and let me know what the issue is.
Steelslinger, Have you heard from any of your list? Or is your list complete?

So one of the guys who volunteered to help run the trade is MIA and didn't send a bow?

Must be too busy filling all his custom order 50" black locust mollys. Real bummer when people prove how selfish they really are

I really hope something has happened, but as he has logged in about every two days i'm not real confident in that.  :(

He was the one to start the trade process this year, the least he can do is see it to fruition.

He must have a big family to take "orders" from, nobody looking for a real self bow would pay .50 cents for those over stressed under built disposal bows.

You hit the nail on the head Clint. Won't return phone calls either.

Sleek, they better chill out or I'll have to make another one! Patrick

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

I agree Sleek. i am as upset as anyone about the lack of communication going on, but attacks aren't necessary. If he has your business and you are happy with it, that is all that matters. word gets around about bad products, and they will be improved or fade away.

Careful there! Guys around here generally knap the stone into a razor sharp point first and then fletch it to a river cane shaft before casting it.  Those devices have been known to be lethal in previously conducted animal experiments as well as a few historical human trials I'm told.
