Mollegabets all day long.
Might as well make them short, save some wood to keep warm.

I got the osage relatively straight and took out most of about 45 degrees twist from tip to tip. Flipped one tip and will do the other tonight after work.

I used steam of the first limb and ended up with some cracks that follow the grain and are anywhere from 1" to 1/4" from the edge for about 6" long.

From what I have read here, should not be a problem once filled with super glue.

I may rawhide back it but just wondering about a big knot that is raised about 1/4". I will post some pics tonight.

Well, that settles it, no matter how nice of a bow you use if you're a poor shot you're a poor shot ;)

This is it for the tease pics until the owner posts. I have to work on the finish a little and sign it before I ship, but I've messed with this thing enough!

Edit: Oh, and I'm waiting for Blaflair2's mink pieces to get here so I can silence this already quiet thing. Big thanks to Blaflair2 ;D

Not sure what you are getting, or where you are getting it!   :-\   Just the idea that when you get it, it makes you quiver....I just don't wanna know!

That sux man. I haven't worked on my trade bow lately. My BL recurve was calling me. That's my plan b, maybe plan a. I dunno. I'm just gonna finish the two and the nicer one goes to the victim! They are almost twins, ones a little wider if u know what I mean ;0)
