I don't know the fella, but some of us older fellas take a while to get projects done.  Most of the time we end up with all the projects that we don't want to do put off for so long that they pile up and take a few months to get caught up on.  I would not be surprised to hear that this is the case here.  I doubt he stiffed ya.  He's probly just swamped.  Josh

I don't know him personally, but it looks like he has not stopped by here since June 25th.  Not a good sign.  If you go to his profile and click on the little envelope icon, you can send an email directly to the email address he used when he signed up. Tell him you need to hear from him.

I never understand people who do that sort of thing. I mean, I know stuff happens. Like, in an instance like this, some one can have a family emergency (which has happened to me) and this can put everything including your life on the line. They could of gone to jail. Their internet may not be working. Anything could happen, I understand. But if it is really a case of someone just not contacting someone, even if they are having trouble or something is taking longer than expected, I think it is extremely disrespectful to not contact the other person, it takes the smallest amount of effort to shoot someone a private message. Although without being in the other persons shoes, it is always impossible to tell for sure what the deal is.

Does he still owe you?  Or are you just curious where he is?

He still owes me, the trade was I send him green staves and he sends me back one as a bow, so I didn't expect to hear much for a while, but I thought I would hear something by now and he's disappeared.

Ok, I see now. In this case, me personally, I would be ticked if he delivered his end of the deal early, (without seasoning the wood proper), haha. I hope you hear from him soon.

TMK-that is without a doubt the best way to look at this!  I couldn't agree more! Lol!  Josh

It'll be worth the wait. I've seen and handled Steve's bows and they are sweet. He owns his own architectural business and gets buried sometimes.
