Just like working around a knot, I guess! ??? I've never done one. If you do come up with such a stave, I'll give it a try! ;D   I've seen bows with nail holes and nails in them. Steve Parker knapped an arrow head with wire reinforced glass. Looked cool with the wire inside and coming out of the head. 8)     Pat

Pat, You've just inspired me to just try and split a stave with one. I think I may give it a try in the next couple days considering I have a pile of osage to split into staves.

If you have a metal detector you might save yourself a lot of work. ;D    Pat

Funny you should mention a horseshoe in a tree Pat. My friends son works for a tree removal service
and just the other day he was grinding a stump and lo and behold he hit a horseshoe.
And yes I'm trying to get him to stave me hardwood logs. No luck yet.
