Got my rings chased and cleaned up. Splice is ready for the saw.

Hey clint! Welcome to the party! This weekend was going to the missouri guys get together to. I guess this is what we get. -C-

That snakey thing looks good Bob. I've got no pie made, but an adult beverage was consumed.

Nice work Chris. I might try and splice something tomorrow. I have some glue and was thinking about a Bob glue up with some bullets that I cut from a stave. Bbn I could use the practice at splicing.

Flint, I think I'm going to end my might with some sanding before I post pics tonight. I hate sanding to. That's when my OCD kicks in. Welcome to the party.

Nice ro see you to Knollie.  I worry about men of your age I  times like these. I hope you are sheltering in place and staying out of the wife's way in your shop.

Finally getting around to posting. You guys are turning out some great work already. Just finished up a hickory bow this week. Just got it ready for the beavertail rest & side plate. Then glue & stitch on my dyed elk leather grip. The bow was fire hardened and dyed with aniline brown & black dye then finished with some spar varnish in a rattle can.

Great to see all you guys. You to Clint. I don’t even care if your making a bow rack for compounds, it’s great to see you.
I’m going to have to go home. Gotta get my planter fixed tomorrow. I think I got it figured out.

Did finish my tips and got em glued on.

PA Steve...that tiller looks awesome as does the unstrung profile...nice stain as well.

Aaron... you have been busy!  Looks like Ed will have some competition when you finish those beauties...

Seems like common sense isn't very common any more...
