Thanks!  Glad to hear that.  I've got two more bow related videos then I'll be done for a little bit since I have to work on some other projects.  Good luck with the studying!

I watched 'em.  Nice work!  Wish I had looked at something like that when I started out.

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

Very good Tim! I really like your tillering! Excellent build along! Maybe the mods will see fit to set this as a sticky.

P.S.  I need to get me some of those cargo pants to hold my rasp! Patrick

  I had to make them while I'm still relatively new at this before I forgot all the places I messed up on. lol  I had a lot of my own questions to answer.

No problem :)

Some of us on /r/bowyer are planning on doing our own builds in our areas of expertise, my spot there being black locust and mollegabets, maybe shorties but I'm not so sure there. Got someone doing a board flatbow, I'm covering ring chasing any my 30min flemish string on a locust stave flatbow before moving on to a molle.

The sub's wiki is public, so if you wouldn't mind I'd like to add your vids there; you pretty much covered the bendy handle shorty ;D

Don't mind at all.  The more you share the better for me!  Thanks!
