Some may say that a board is a board, is a board. But I beg to differ there are so many variations with board material. 2 lams, mulitple lams, take down, straight board and I won't get into the other type here

I just like working with square flat stock. But I do know that the work involved in making one from a stave is time consuming and only one variation, its a stave, chase a ring, tiller it and its a bow.
