That's a great looking haul. I can't wait to go up north for a good wood haul.  Another few months  :)

Thanks Bob and Matt. Once I ge these all processed I've got another bow to start. I try not work on bows and process staves at the same time. I tend to work more on the bow and it causes me to take too long getting the staves in the shed. My friend Chris who is in the wheelchair has expressed an interest in trying to shoot one, so I may need to try and make a shorty that he can shoot from the chair. He's an avide deer hunter but with a rifle. It would be kind of cool if I could get him shooting a bow. Seems to me there is a fella on here thats in a chair as well. If he can do it so can Chris.  Danny

Ill bring you one of those Jon but I think you may want to wait a little while on it. I'll bring you something cured too so you can work it sooner.

yeah Clint its the amber shellac....lol.

I've seen a time when Danny may have been as shellaced as the stave was!  ;D

Well maybe both of us..................
