YEW scrap?

(1/1)

Prarie Bowyer:
I'm looking to make some footed arrows.  YEW footings.  anybody have lumps of log or something from the ends that is long enough?  say 9" in length? and thick enough I can get some 1/2" square pieces from?

M-P:
I've got some yew scraps and pieces.  It is not clear grain though and might be difficult to plane into footings.   Still it's yours if you want.   Ron

Prarie Bowyer:
Yes yes and yes.  I've got a GREAT plane.  I grind them with a sanding drum jig then clean up with razor sharp planes that take shaving that can be read through. 

Don't usually have a problem.

BOWMAN53:
That was weird, my phone tripped out and somehow erased the pic.

Ed Brooks:
I also have some if you need more.
