Great bow again, Leon!I like this uggly frog.Did you use osage soup or tanin additional?
When I first tried fuming I put some various pieces of wood in the bag. When the yew turned that awful"wood preservative" green I just threw it away. I should have stuck with it.
Very nice bow!!I have a bow where the lower is dogleged and with a higher crown. It didn't start to bend and I was concerned it's going to be very thin. I decided to hollow it out and followed the crown. Voila!Until now I just made good experiences with hollow limbs.How does your scraper look like?I use a long piece spring steel bend and taped together forming a U. Works pretty good and fast.CheersB2W
Gorgeous bow...Marginal ... You guys have a funny idea of marginal Del
can someone explain what FUMED is ?? - i presume its letting fumes get to it ? or smoking but really this is the first i have heard so would be great to know how its done ? I presume Fuming would also work for anything make with wood - a way to change colour without dye's??
what are the benefits of fuming over dye or light burning or other methods of changing the wood colour?
