Mostly except for the bandsaw, steel tools, and tung oil finish
. This is made from a piece of Hop Hornbeam that RyanO gave me. This is the first time I worked with HHB and I really like it. It shoots quick and has a nice springy feeling. It is 56" NtN, 51# at 27". The limbs are 1 1/2" wide for 2/3 of the length, then tapering to 3/4". The bottom limb has a bit of a kink, but most of it came out with some dry heat. The handle wrap is from a piece of egg tanned buckskin laced with some of 'dat famous DanaM U.P. sinew. The string is a two ply sinew string that I also made from U.P. backstrap sinew. Finish is Tung oil, over a light staining of Black Walnuts. Thanks Ryan for the great piece of wood, and Dana for always keeping well supplied in sinew.
