Short elm preview

PatM:
Here's an Elm shortie that I'm  working on. Roughed out and ready for heat-treating and then sinew. Don't worry, I don't believe sinew has to dry for years. ;)

Ha,ha, trying a retro- flight- design. Me too, did the same design recently: 43" in length, red yew( no sapwood), but no backing, actually 40lbs at 19". I want to end up at 23"/45- 48lbs.
Promising!

Del the cat:
Oooh, lookin' good :).
I've got a sort of plan in my head for a Hickory backed hickory Molle'.
Basically a cookie cutter job from some thickish Hickory backing that I've got. I'll heat treat the bit that's going to be the belly and glue it up with reflexed levers, then glue on lever belly reinforcements.
It's at the armchair stage at the mo' ::)
