Perfect tiller, great job!

Thanks again. It sure doesn't take much osage to make a good bow. Every time I use it I am grateful to have access to as much as I need.

  You should be grateful!  Whenever I wrestle yet another mediocre bow stave with my heat gun, made by butting a couple 2" diameter elm branches I stole from a ditch next to the highway (slippery elm at that), trying to arrange their two dozen pin knots each, I keep thinking,  "Having access to a bunch of osage orange would like being born rich, smart, and handsome!"
