DuBois, If you plan to use any of those Thomas Train Tracks make sure you back it...most of them have a lot of grain runoff. :)

I know this because I have found myself observing the grain patterns on all things made of any type of wood, LOL. (Hmmm....I bet I could get at least 3 bows out of the back of this church pew....)

Oh, and I have a piece of hackberry I have been sketching limb dimensions on for the last two days.  I hope to have this ready as a backup just in case someone has life rare up and kick them in the teeth.

Here are a couple of BL staves, with the exception of the far left which is sycamore.  I am trying to decide a plan a and b.  I am getting excited about all of these staves.  Especially the one that my victim gets.  I will get more done soon.

Matt go ahead and take that one second from the left and make a bendy handle bow and send it to me. Even if you didn't draw me :)

I like that one  with the big ol' knots  :o I haven't split a stave like that in a long time.

Might as well make them short, save some wood to keep warm.

Looking good guys!

I'm with the others on here. If you drew my name make whatever tickles your fancy. That's part of the fun of this, the not knowing and ability to have and shoot something different that is someone else's handiwork.

I know man, I keep thinking maybe the long curved ones would work for siyahs on a composite. (Like I would need any more help messing up a composite  ::))

I say go for it on the pew wood. What's the worst that could happen?  >:D >:D >:D >:D

1+ on what DGF said. Don't try to tailor it to me too much. Just do what you love to do and I'm sure I'll love it.

Had to bring everything into the house, all that cold weather everyone's been complaining about finally hit me like a ton of bricks :o

The overlays are on with a clean glue line, roughly shaped, knocked, and I'm really to start refining the floor tiller.
