My new caul
« on: May 13, 2012, 09:18:00 pm »
Thought I would share my newest caul. I wanted a caul to do it all in one shot. This one will reflex, flip tips, straighten in any direction and can be used to temper. This particular bow is mulberry, I did my "Good Friday" osage bow on this caul and it turned out nice. This bow is 5" longer so the tips get more reflex. So far "Im lovin' it" like Mc Donalds....tm..... ;)

All my cawls are 1/2 cawls, after the classic I decided to build full cawls like the one you posted.

Thanks for sharing that pearlie! I just made my first caul a few weeks ago following the design of Gary Davis on his rattlestick DVD. I haven't even finished a bow off it yet but I was thinking of making something along the lines of this with flipped tips. I'm just curious to see how that bow looks. Guess I'll do a search on it. Ok it was your Friday bow right not one of the two ya made on saturday right? Lol well thanks again I'll hopefully be making one similar soon.

Nice Drums!

How did you come up with that design???

4) drywall screws
1) 36" aluminum yard stick
1) pencil

I found my center and just flexed my ruler until I liked my reflex. Then added the flipped tips with a shorter bendy ruler. Its perfectly symmetrical as a result.

Its just too easy to get all your corrections and reflexing done in one heat on one full form Badger.

  Thats nice I have a couple also with a backing. Cut a top peices the same way to match the bottom. I put mine in while green cut it down to simi bow fourm. When you clamp the top to the bottom the bow between the too a lot more uniform. It's done with no heat.
