You're killin me Shannon, I head out for Texas on Thursday, don't leave me hangin with no pics. :o
bullcreekboy:
Sorry for the delay Skeater. Building our home is getting in the way of my bow time.LOL. Here is the bow with the skins on and the joints wrapped in red serving. What do you guys think? I still have to blend the skins in on the handle but the limbs are done. These skins are like sandpaper. They definately make for a now slip grip on the limbs. I will wait to soak the servings in super glue until I get the approval from you guys. Be truthful, let me know what you guys think.

WHEWWWW! I can go to bed now. Thanks.
That looks great Shannon!
Pat B:
Excellant Shannon. I love the way you matched the skins. The wraps look good, too. When you are ready to apply the glue, put plenty down on the wrap and while its still wet, use a finger to smooth around the wrap. As long as it is wet, you won't stick. You will have to clean the glue off your finger. Once it is cured, sand it with fine emory cloth and apply the glue again and smooth it with your finger. By doing this in layers, you get a solid band that is smooth and can be shaped a little if needed with the emory cloth.
You did a very nice job skinning the bow. Someone will cherish this bow for years. Pat
