Wood burning on the belly
« on: September 11, 2010, 03:20:49 pm »
Would there be any issues with burning some designs in the belly of a self bow with a wood burner?

No
Everything happens for a reason, sometimes the reason is you made a bad decision.

I agree... belly definately not... back yes. I wouldn't burn, or cut, or carve anything into the back of any bow. Paint, draw, stain, etc., no problem.

                                                                 I would not hessitate to Burn or Carve the belly side either....but the Back

I guess I'm the odd one here. I'm hesitant to damage the parts of the bow that do either compression or tension work.

No, I don't think so... I don't burn, carve, or damage any parts of the bows I make. I write on them, but that's it.
