And that's where the fun begins Jordo!

I could post one of my long winded half baked theories on here if you would like Jordo. >:D  At least everyone snoring would chase away the silence! ::)  Josh

I'm still here too.  Just got back from Boise to see some family.  I'll probably get back down to the shop in the next couple of days.

I've got my bow rawhide backed and put 60 arrows through her. Will start adding finish soon and shoot another 40 or 50 arrows and I think she'll be ready for her new home.
 How's that, Jordan?  ;D

I've got a start but the weather is going to have to cooperate better for me to reach any advanced stages of bow building.
I found many years ago that it is much easier and more rewarding working with those that don't know anything than those that know it all.

I got one raw hide backed yesterday . Needs final tillering. And I just finished one. And I run a ring on another stave and marked a bow out on it. Wait these are not for the bow trade I sent mine out already. But that's what I have got done since I mailed the trade bow out.
