Weekend Tiller Practice
« on: August 24, 2008, 10:59:26 pm »
My last post was of my first Osage bow with not the best tiller.
So I thought I would do a little practice on a oak board bow this weekend before I messed up my other stave.
It's 68" 45@27"
I put a black walnut accent in the handle and on the tips just because they look nice. ;D
A leather shelf wraped with waxed hemp cordage.
Here is a couple of pictures. I use the advice I receaved last time. I think it help a lot.

Thanks for the kind words guys I appreciate that.  ;D
Everyones helpful advice is well taken.
Beleave I'll try one in Maple but I think I'll have to back it with linen if I can find some.
So when I get to that point I may have a question or two on backing.

Pat. Yes it is a 2 fletch arrow, I think they shoot just as good a my 3 fletch.
