do you mean stop working on it, or using the wood to make the trade bow?
Elktracker:

Hi Noel
Looking forward to seeing how your bow goes, a week after you got your stave I looked on ebay and got a very similar one, described as a character stave. Just finished mine at 130lb at 32".
I am sure you have but I am just checking you have stored your stave in a good place while you haven't been working on it, although mine was described as seasoned, it still needed a little time.

i have kept in in my basement, its cool and most of the time is dehumidified, one good part of my waiting to do more work on it is more seasoning can't hurt. how can you tell how season yew is, as this is my first piece so i have nothing to base it off of.
so, are we getting any pictures of yours, you can't mention a 130lb warbow an not put pictures up ;D ;).
