Aaron H:
Where did you score the yellow croaker bladders from Ed?

willie:

--- Quote ---Even the worst glue I have made holds sinew to wood. Only the best splices horn and holds sinew to a huge reflexed horn bow
--- End quote ---

could this be because the glue on a horn bow has to stretch more?

Perhaps different batches of glue could be pre-tested for their ability to stretch as far as required.

Stick Bender:
Aaron I will let Ed answer but I just ordered a 1 lb. From Amazon about $70

BowEd:
Yes Aaron...there abouts what Ritch said shipping and all.That price for a pound.12 large 5 to 6 inch circumference bladders.Erlin yellow croaker.

Stick Bender:
It's $$ for glue but would imagine you could get a fair amount of bows out of a pound one of the smaller crock pots I have will maintain 135 F is the lowest I can get on temp .
