Thanks fellas I'll see what happens with it.
Bob...I would of liked to that's for sure but I'm afraid it would'nt be cured enough yet by Mo Jam time.How are you coming along with your sinewed bows?

both are drying...as long as possible...  :)  I will skin both but I'm afraid that they will need to dry quite awhile again after I do...
Seems like common sense isn't very common any more...

 I always wanted to try that Korean method, I have seen it on a few video's seems it can be laid down in even strait  amounts, I'm following this one any thing that can make sinew processing easier gets my vote.
If you fear failure you will never Try !

I'm still using fredrix or sinew glue that's proven to me to be good enough.Some hide and bladder type glues I keep on hand here:

quite a collection Ed, I am going to collect some halibut skin to render, and see what I get.

Knox has it's own process to make glue, and I have also heard that it is a bone glue. Dont know if that is why my testing and Tim's turned out differently, though.
