I really wanted to start tillering tonight, just too whooped. 12hr overtime at 5 am always kills me the next day. And it dropped back down to the teens. Yay! Tomorrow is another day. Have a good night.

Might as well make them short, save some wood to keep warm.

I had 3 bows in mind for the trade and wanted to pick the best one. Here is where I am at now. The hhb and hickory, trapped and heated both shoot great, but the hickory maybe a bit better. The hhb has more character though. I have the osage bending to brace right now. No hurry here, I will shoot them all for a while and then make up my mind.

Woohoo. Last weekend I was able to make it to a place called Bristol Valley Hardwoods and get some great pieces of wood. 24' of 1x5.5 arrow straight grained ipe should make me a lot of nice bows including my trade one. I also got a beautiful piece of ash to back it with.

Now if only I could get some weather I could work with, lol. High of 19° today and 15° tomorrow. Oh well, more time to think of ideas to try on it, lol.
