Timo:
Well big butt I ain't got dano.... It is tight though.:) ::)

Go some skins on it yesterday.I found a couple small bull snakes that matched perty well. I mixed me up a small batch of hide glue,brushed  a thin coat on the limbs,pulled the skins out of the water bath,wiped them dry and brushed a coat on them. then I just layed them down,a few minor adjustsments, and boom...Bob your uncle !:)

Had them trimmed off in 5 mins and they were set...... I swear hide glue just sucks thing together.Not sure why I use anything else?

I removed scales tonight and then had to skin another copperhead.I swear them things are thick this year...(Sorry got side tracked there).Anyhow, the skins turned out well. Gotta get me some paints tomorrow and so some art work on it,then I'll start the finishing process. Turning into a sweet lil bow.

Thanks for the kudus on the tiller boys.:)

Dano:
Maybe it was just the shorts  ;D

Seriously, nice work bud.

Hillbilly:
Tim, that's a bada$$ bow. Tiller looks great to me, looking forward to seeing some finished pics.

Wolf Watcher:
That is one fantastic looking bow.  Would love to have one just like it.  Would be perfect on those long mule rides to the mountains.  Very good work!  Pokie

cracker:
