This is great to see.  Don't worry about how long it takes.  It can't possibly be any slower than my build a long. It's been going since summer with some real looooong pauses.  Good luck, I'm sure your bow will come out a great as your arrows.

Now I know that some of you BOYS might not even want your wives involved, but think about it, what if SHE needs new tools to do her part???  That will help you out too, ya know!!!!  If she does get involved then you can sit back and relax and let her do the work!!! >:D

Now on the other hand, if she does all the work, then you can bet your behind that she will make sure that your MAN CAVE is maintained properly!!!! :D :D :D ;D ;D

Seriously though, personally I would like to see more wives join in with their husbands and really try to understand how it feels to say that you made something basically from nothing.  I know from experience that it is a great accomplishment to me knowing that I can make something that our anscestors HAD to make to live.  Some people will just never know how good that feels.  Now days we don't have to make them to live, but some of us would like to go back to that way of life.  (Me and my husband for one!!!)  Life then was so much simpler.  You didn't have all the stress of wondering where you were going to get the money for this or that.  The main thing you had to worry about, was making sure that your family was taken care of!!!  Everything revolved around family, not money!!!  I think that's the way it should be.  Life is about family and friends to help you when you need it.  Those kind of people are hard to find these days.

Enough of my rambling!!  I want to thank you all in advance for any help and all help that you give me!!!

sailordad:
good points there knightc71,

truthfully i would love it if my wife would join in me in "MY" man cave for a night of pure bliss,of making bows etc. >:D
she goes gun and bowhunting turkey with me,she will go for walks into the woods all day and drudge thru the occasional swamp and briar patch.
i can get her to do all that but she refuses to clean her own kill or catch,she has no interest in making her own gear.
she says thats what i am for,cleaning,carrying,making gear,she'll do the cooking ;D

i do get her to carry osier shoots while i'm in the swamp cutting them,someday maybe she'll get like you and make arrows and such for all my friends :D

                                                                                      peace,
                                                                                             tim
