Bows / Re: What shall I do with this tiny yew stave?
« Last post by superdav95 on January 05, 2026, 09:22:41 pm »I agree there’s a bow in there for sure. Ring count isnt terrible. I did one similar but it was 60”. It’s still one of my fastest bows. I sinewed my and did a semi hollow limb design to somewhat match the heavy crown my stave had. Worked out quite well and was about similar dimensions as yours here. I’ll see if I can did up some pics and post here. Couldn’t get the pics over but here is the link. It shows two yew bows sinewed. The one I’m referring to that’s similar to your stave is the one with sapwood retained smaller stave. Not the heartwood belly drop bow.

« Last post by superdav95 on January 05, 2026, 09:15:11 pm »Very cool. Looks great. I did one kinda like this but I called it a platypus bow. It was a while ago when I posted it here. It was similar idea but incorporated into a 5 piece bamboo asiatic style bow. I’ll try a post a pic or two here if I can find it. Better yet here’s the link from my post on pa

Bows / Re: scrap sinew? make some glue!
« Last post by superdav95 on January 05, 2026, 09:00:52 pm »Here’s the finished product. Came out really nice. Good color and clarity to it. It seems on par with the other sinew glues I’ve done in the past. This will keep me stocked up for a bit.
Here’s a short video clip
