Hi everyone!
« on: January 29, 2013, 07:38:09 pm »
hey everyone ive been viewing this website as a guest and you all seem like a pretty nice bunch so i decided to join, this is my first post and would just like to introduce myself, well what i do anyway. well i make bows but i mostly just repair and refinish them. so if you have a bow that is in need of some minor attention, a bow that needs a finnish put on or needs to be worked on let me know and ill see what i can do. if it's not too much ill do it for free (if you pay postage) but let me know what you have.

Welcome Bow Doctor.  Just curious, what finishes you prefer?  What finishes do you recommend for sinew-backed bows?
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
