Looks like the ca glue did react with some other stuff. Do have ammonia on the wood? Or is the thread soaked in some chemicals?

It's nice and dry now and looks like there is no glue on it, just the look I wanted. I'll oil it as soon as the garage is warmer.

Are you confident in having enough glue on it?

I think so I soaked it and let it gell a bit and wiped it with a damp rag just enough to take any lumps and clumps off. We'll find out.

Hey DC, resurrecting this old thread to ask if you ever finished up this bow? Also wondering if you had any interest in trying for making another thats faster?
