On a serious note, I got Pappy's bow floor tillered, straitened, and its on the reflex form now. I will try to post some pics soon before I send it on to Chris(Agbowyer).

Bring it on Brian. I'll do as good a job on Pappy's as I have on yours ;)...... OK I give, I got the check out and there's still plenty of wood. Its still the best stave I've ever worked on. The natural reflex is great. I will probably reflex the tips a little tomorrow.... Chris

Here is Keenan's stave floor tillered and ready to send to Pat. I guess I cant really call it floor tillered since I did it with a long string on the tree.  :-\ Now the hard part, getting it to the post office.

You like how I took the board off the tree and put a light up so it would cast a shadow on the siding? The kinky stave makes a nice clean arc shadow so I can see the bend.  ;D  Justin

 LOL,  Your just the man for the job Pat, You know there is alot of superstitions about yew trees, Good and bad but I 'm betting that if some of that beard rubs on that bow it might just give it some extra mojo.  Beside you'd have to screw up alot more than one yew stave to catch up to me on that list.   Keenan

I sent mullets stave out last Tuesday to Koan and he said he hadn't got it yet,I hope I haven't messed up and sent it to the wrong person or worse yet got lost in the mail.If anyone gets it let me know.I will check on it today.I think I had it where it would have to be signed for and I know I insured it.Koan what is your address ,once again?I know I didn't sent it to the same place I sent the knife for the committee bow.

Joanie tracked it down, it's at the post office.I sent it where it had to be signed for and
no one was there and I guess they didn't leave him anything to let him know they had came.Wooo what a relief.Do yall think they need to be sent that way I thought it would be but now I am not so sure,What do yall think?I also insured it.

I prefer they not have to be signed for. I'm never at home when they deliver. I haven't had any problems.

If it goes out USPS I have to go get it anyway.  They leave me a note in the mailbox that says it was to long to fit in the jeep and I need to come in and get it. UPS left Keenans on the doorstep so it was there when I got home on Tuesday.  Justin

Eddie, don't cry, I'm heading to the PO tomorrow :). Finally got a couple free hours this afternoon and finished roughing out Pat's stave. I'll wrap 'er up with mine and chunk it in the mail in the morning.
