Thanks Steve I sure hope so

bjrogg:
Thanks Brad I do think you are right as far as the sinew goes. I think I should be able to separate the strands out fairly easily now.

Applying it to to bow might have to wait a bit

bjrogg:
Thanks Dave I was hoping you would give some advice.

I did wash the tendons in soapy dawn dish water when I first harvested it. That really helps with removing some of the sheath that surrounds it and a lot of the fat.

It does still have a little

If I understand correctly next I should continue separating it and then wash with dawn?  I’m thinking I will have to comb it out then, get it straight and let it dry again. Or should I just wait until I’m ready to apply it to wash it again?

Hoping to avoid learning things the hard way.

PEARL DRUMS:
I always use back tendons. So much easier, but, still a ton of work. That stuff is looking really good BJR.

Russ:
cant wait to see the finished product!  (-P
