Hey, what's the hurry?
Maybe I should just start pounding some moose legs.  8) >:D ;) ;)

My old dog Kato just got diagnosed with bone cancer in his front leg so if he gets to go swimming again we'll be doing good.
I believe one of his last wishes would be for another sinew bow (he loves scraggly scraps)
Guess I better honor his desires.

Kato, like the rest of us in here, has a natural deadline.  The bow trade deadline is a little more artificial.  If your recipient thinks their bow is more important than Kato, their priorities need reorganizing. But I don't think we have anyone like that on this year's list.

Well I wasn't in any hurry. But did have time on my hands . So I did manage to get the bow shot in and got true oil on and a leather grip. So she is all done and ready to head north west . I might get it packaged up and ready to go tonight. Or I may just look at it for a few days. I hope my recipient likes it.

Don't worry JW, this won't stop the trade bow being made, it will just mean a longer wait for the sinew to dry  ;D And, Kato already stole one moose leg when I wasn't lookin. Found him chompin away half through it.

Hey Bob, you do gotta get it done when the opportunity presents. Good job getting after it. You may be the first bow out  8) 8) 8)

Its all Chris,s ( blackhawks) fault . I turn into a mad man when I rip into a stave. I can't stop till its finished . Its a sickness I caught from Chris.
  Yeah it narrows it down just a tad there is still a lot north west of me.

Well I'm sending mine to the left of my current position. How's that for telling >:D

And here I thought I'd be the first to ship. Turns out I was a hundred arrows behind when I got sick ::)

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

All I've done is picked out the stave, HHB. We have a few snow days coming up so I'll get in the shop then.

You guys look like you'll have yours sent before I even decide which piece of wood to use. I'm trying to finish 2 kids bows and a couple of my own before entering the next stage.

We just got out first snow in Grays Harbor. Not my favorite weather, and being sick makes it feel worse.

Still got a little bit of scraping done.

Ttt!
