i want some YEW lumber
« on: February 19, 2013, 12:32:08 am »
Just a few boards or so.  I'm doing my bamboo backed bows so It needn't be perfect lumber.  Or a stave or two.  Where to get it?

I should have some in the next week or two. 
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

I'm making bamboo backed board bows.  Have anything that is straight enough to resaw and get a few bows out of?
