wednesday nite bowmaking
sadiejane:
just thought id toss a few recent pix of some bows folks are working on
dale brought in an entire trees worth of nice snakey staves.
i helped him get em split and he gifted a quarter to wayne, one to steve and one to me!
generous fella-thanks dale!
we successfully got his quarter halved and he is gonna have two fine snakey bows one day soon.
jenna is working on her second bow and should be shooting it next week.
unfortunately her first bow failed but this one is gonna be a keeper, pretty sure
aaron took on the challenge of chasing a ring on on a stave from a 15 yr old walnut log he had.
better him than me, not sure these old eyes could discern those rings even in the sunlight
hopefully i will remember to bring the camera when these three bows are up n shooting
peace

Love the looks of those snakey staves. I havnt tried a real snakey stave yet. But i did get permision from a neighbor to harvest a real snakey osage post from his fenceline. Looks like you all are being real productive.
