The bow is 57" ntn.

Thank you all for the really nice compliments.

Carson (CMB):
Amazing work!  I wish I had thought of titebond liquid hide blue for the sturgeon skin job I just did.  I was going back and forth between titebond III and sinew glue and went with sinew glue, but that brown bottle probably would have worked great.

Is that the thin titebond instant bond you used?   Is that better than the medium for that purpose?  I ask because I already have the medium on hand.

The bottle says "Titebond Liquid Hide Glue". It's not thin that's for sure. I keep the bottle in my refrigerator and when I need it, I warm the glue by setting the bottle in hot water for a while and then the glue spreads easily. It's the cat's meow when you need to lay down skins or rawhide.

I think he's talking about the ca glue. I had the same question.
