Title: Signing up for trade bows? & bend in handle Q
Post by: wood_bandit99 on August 08, 2013, 05:40:52 pm

How do u sign up to trade? Sorry, I'm new. I'm also working on a bend in the handle and it is 65" should I cut it down? I have a 26" draw. Also could people give me some advice on tillering it?

The trade for this year is just wrapping up and is not open to new participants. My advice is to make lots of bows between now and next year, and have a presence here on the forum, showing your bows and participating in discussions. The organizers of the trades need to have reasonable assurance that you can make a safe and functional bow and that you're not a flake. I sucks when people sign up for trades and then don't follow through so they like to "know" you a for a while before they let you sign up.
