American bison, horn bow w/sinew(pic update)

<< < (11/15) > >>

Dano:
They used to call em, "dog with three heads"  ;D

Timo:
 I've had the lil bow in the hot box for a week and it only lost 1/4oz in weight.tips the scales at 16.75 ozs. I always hot box my bows for a good period before I seal them and then I start the sealing process imediately out of the box, so the wood is dry. Got a couple coats on the bow today. I should have the finish done this week,then the handle and some more dressings.I'll post some pics later this week I hope.

I love the way the horn looks with finish on it. Almost hate to give it a dulling! ???

Timo:
Not much to update. I have the finish done,but work and life have taken front row for a bit.

I plan on doing some work on it tonight,just not quite sure about my handle yet....Maybe this week, we'll get to see this thing finished.? ;D

Dano:
I wish you'd do a beaver tail handle wrap. I got an air dried tail from Mike Yancey I'm dying to try.

Timo:
Well if you are dying to try then I guess I could send the bow out to ya? ;D
