sinew moisture resistance

<< < (2/3) > >>

JW_Halverson:
I converted a large part of the batch into flakes just by pouring small heated batches into plastic tubs. When it gelled, I peeled it out and set the "chips" in the sun until it was fully cured.  From there I just snapped it apart into smaller flakes.

Hey Beady?  You interested in trying this stuff to sinew back a bow?

BowEd:
Yes in time Jdub.Just have to organize priorities you know.Waiting on one sinew baked bow to cure right now.I used distilled water.Wow can this get more complicated or what.I thought these things were supposed to be simple.LOL.Not enough lifetimes to experiment all of these concepts.I brought it up though so I'll try to follow through.Sounds like your closer to ready with to use material than me.The skim milk mixture never occured to me.Have to see what happens on that too.That would be less trouble to make I would think.

hedgeapple:
Interesting stuff.  I'm planning on sinewing a bow as soon as my pinched nerves allow me to work on it.  I'll be following this thread.

PEARL DRUMS:
I just use good urethane rather. Just easy for me I guess.

BowEd:
Yep I hear ya about just using a good finish being 95% the solution here.
