bow racks
« on: October 24, 2016, 10:23:07 pm »
I finally got around to building a couple of much needed bow racks. The first one was made from the fork of an American Beech tree. The second was made from a couple of pieces of a plank from a barn my grandfather built in the 1940s.

Now to finish up some of these bows.

What ya did with that beech limb was creative. Congrats!

That is just awesome! I am going to be on the look out for a fork while cleaning out a ditch. Thanks so much for the idea.
