Hmm.  I've got a Cody buckthorn stave as well.  You sure made that one look nice.

I burnt it Drew, didn't like its appearance or performance, and knew I wouldn't want it around. So..........up in flames it goes!

Don't let Pearly scam you folks , even a worthless old nut can make a bow out of Buckthorn in a day .

After the last couple of Buckthorn bows posted up I think Cody's price for a stave is going to go way up .

Fun stuff ain't it Pearly !
Fun to let them go as is also
Good job

How wide and thick are the limbs at the transition to the non bending tips and around that knot? Just trying to get an idea about my current project. Thanks Chris, Doobs

I don't measure poo doob's, tape measures are for guys like DQ! The area around the knot has a total healthy wood width that equals the limb width before and after the knot. You dig?

 As far as thickness goes, its irrelevant as each stave is different, just tiller it out. I left 6" stiff on my straight limb and 7-8" stiff on my R/D limb. Looking closer, I think I could have got a wee bit more upper limb movement right in the middle, but it works.
OK, thanks man. l'll just jump into it and get it the best I can  ;)
