Tulip Boys bow is looking sweet. Have her to 16 inches on the tree with a 6 inch brace height. Needs some weight reduction though. About 60 pounds right now, I plan on taking it down to 40 so he can handle it:)

40 might still be toooo much for him Roy...id drop it down to 25  ;)  :laugh:

You got it matt ;)


I weighed the stave today and its only lost a tenth of an ounce,which isn't much,and I'm thinking its drier than what I first thought and should be ready for some serious bending n heat correcting by next weekend for sure. And in the meantime I made and finished off another bow today,and ill start oiling it up later today.

"Crazed Beaver",......I think I see a nickname in there Clint?

Made me  giggle a bit. I don't think calling someone a "Crazy Beaver"  has the same conotations down there as it does in Canada. ;)

I don't know yet Ed...I've been waiting for someone to come along and say something about it that rings a bell......."kinky Kat"?....."busy beaver"?...sometimes I name a bow and sometimes I don't. Any better ideas?...cus those are striking me either.

There ya go man.Thanks Stringman.Gotta see how much of that speed bump your gonna remove.Thought you had a hot box?You could make a big production out of it and steam it like Gary davis does and tame her that way.Might help to dry it out quicker too.
