Here's mine. Also from a waterbed.

I guess waterbeds are only good for cutting up for other projects. 

I really like that adjustabe limb support set-up.  Neat deal!  I've got a vise that rotates on two axis that I use for shaping knife scales.  I was thinking that might work well for this undertaking.

[MaceG]

Yeah. That with an adjustable support ought to give you all the angles you need.

Nope, that's a Nicholson #50 rasp.

Tom all the tool and saws are under roof ,I just wipe them down in the winter with wd40 to keep them from rusting. The botton run on the benches[especilly the one I use most] has the bottom
support just where I need so I set my foot up on it and the bow limb on my knee to support it while I am scraping or filing on it. The big heavy one made from a truck frame is mainly used for debarking Osage or Hickory,it is heavy enough so it won't move when you really get after one with the draw knife. I bought it at a sale for $7.00 no body even bid on it. It is great for what it is used for.Money well spent.

I tried using a shaving horse. I just couldn't get used to it. Here's my set up.
