drying bows

<< < (2/4) > >>

tyler holley:
Good job grunt!!. ;D

Pat B:
Grunt, I have a Fisher "Momma Bear" in the living room and sometimes stand bows up near it between working sessions.

gstoneberg:
I have got to get a wood burner for the shop...if for no other reason than disposing of bow scraps.  They frown on bonfires in town.  It was sure simpler in the country.

Grunt:
I've been rubbing the yellow bow [black locust sapling] down with lard and letting the heat from the stove help soak the pig fat in. Used lard when I flipped the tips also.

JackCrafty:
Cool.  Not much different than drying the staves in a sweat lodge.
