Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

February 1st is the end of signups, I'll split the list among we three and we'll assign everybody to somebody. I want to try to avoid direct exchanges (person A and B give each other a bow), get things going in kind of a circle ;)

Someone's getting a bendy molle, I just can't make enough of them recently ;D

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

Wizardgoat if we don't draw each other's names, and you don't use that snakey stave on the left, I'll trade you all day long for that one, so in love with it!

Sweet! That sounds like a cool bow!  I have a nice character Osage or a bendy hickory. Not sure yet, all depends on who I get. Patrick
