Copper bopping,no FOG
« on: October 21, 2009, 06:32:18 pm »
  I haven't been chipping much lately, too busy at work and working on bows. It is finally cool now. Also, I went back to spalling instead of slabbing. So I've just been thinning out preforms till I have time to finish them. Here are a few I finished in the last week or so after work.

Looks good to me. I need to get outside and work on some also.

 Thanks, guys. Tim, that turkey tail is actually small enough to put on an arrow. Dana, we have another cold front moving through Saturday, good hunting, high of 80.

Some good one's there Eddie! At least your bopping is producing some whole points ;).

Pretty darn good Eddie. My bopping has produced a back yard that looks like a car crash with nothing but tinted glass.  ;)
