Looks like a good day!   I cut lots of rings, made a big mess in the shop.  I'm skeptical as to if there is a bow hiding in that stave or not but if nothing else the ring chasing is good practice.   I'll clean the bench and take pics tomorrow night to see what you think.  The hatchet had to come out for the big knot on the side as it was causing problems.

My text to our group...some if you don't text so thought I would post this for you...
Next Friday the 10th @ 6:00pm is our January gathering.   It's going to be fun shooting bows indoors since it's so cold outdoors. The following people have told me they are coming- Tom, Paul and his daughter (maybe) Matt and his daughter, Tim J. Tim M. Chris H. and Leroy. If you are planning on coming please let me know so Annette can make enough chilli for everyone! If you would like to bring something to share that would be great. It's going to be a great time. I think Steve said he might make it also if I remember right. Stay warm till then!

Thanks Pappy, you are a great role model for how to reach out to others and pass on the knowledge of primitive archery. I have learned a lot from you TN boys that we are modeling into this group. It will be -13 on Monday with wind chills of -30 to -50 below lol and I see you guys building bows with no coats on ....envy!

Isaac, Craig and I stopped by Matt's house to do a little on his bow. He has a great work shop and is a master craftsman! His family is totally into his work!

All I can say to you guys (Isaac, John and Craig) is WOW and thank-you!  The tag team ring chasing was great and on a new stave with a more forgiving upbringing, even better.
Maddie and Shelly had a much fun as I did I think.  Shell said she took over a hundred pictures so the afternoon was well documented.
Thank you again, that was a fun learning experience!
