Not one knot on any of these. I have named them STAVE 1, STAVE 2, exc just to make it less confusing so if your interested in one just let me know which number stave you want. If you wanna know anything about a certain stave, ill know which one your talkin bout by the number. So I don't get all cornfused. :) Note, stave 4 and 6 are missing in the list because they are already traded. Also, I have measured width at the center of the stave, but of course they get alot wider down on the bottom end of the stave. If I don't specify that the upper smaller end gets significantly smaller width wise in the dimensions I posted, then it is consistant width for the most part. These were cut about a week and a half ago or so. Bark was removed and sapwood was sealled with 2 coats of elmers glue, ends were sealed with 4 coats of titebond 3. Shoot me a PM if your interested or have any questions. Thank ya,  ;D.

Edit: STAVE 1 & 2 have been traded.

Edit2: STAVE 7 has now also been traded.

STAVE 5 is now traded as well.

ALL STAVES ARE TRADED EXCEPT 8

EDIT3: OK, STAVE EIGHT HAS STARTED TO CHECK ON THE END A BIT SO I AM TAKING ER OFF THE MARKET. SO THATS ALL OF EM. THANKS GUYS!

Sent a PM but don't know if it went through.  Puter problems.

I am interested in stave #7.  Never having built a bow before the rings look wide enough to work with.

Any idea what you want or need for this stave?

Thanks

Mark
