First time.
« on: February 28, 2014, 06:43:42 pm »
Hi all.
 I am going to start my first bow. I have been reading as much as possible on how to start but I am nervous.
I have an oak 2x4 that is going to be my starting stave and would like everyones input on how to start. What tools are recommended,  Etc.

What video on line is available that could help?

Thanks.

Frosty Hollow Hardwood (frostyusa.com) can prob hook you up with that. Oak plywood is actually a more stable product. I go to mars lumber for my plywood
