Midwest Paddle bows
« on: May 29, 2013, 09:47:37 pm »
I'm thinking I may have to make a few paddle bows; 5" of rain in the last 3 days, 2 more forecasted by Friday, and about an inch in my basement. Don't even want to imagine the MC of my staves right now :(

You can reduce the staves to floor tiller stage without affecting them adversely. Get them set up, be sure they are sealed well and wait for dryier times.  ;)

Barely a white wisp of a cloud in the sky yesterday (in fact I lay back and watched as the Sun burned one away to nothing, about 3pm) and at 09:35 it's looking like it'll be similar today, here in Ireland...

*sigh*  I miss the rain...   :'(

Come down here, It's been raining for three days and expecting more if Tropical Storm Barbara makes it across mexico.
