Here’s my new glue pot warmer. It was 50$ good old Amazon. I had to mess around with the dial to get it to regulate at 60 degrees for my glue. Used this to heat my glue for the backing on this bow. Worked well.

That’s looking like another bad a$$ bow Dave. Must be something about those crazy Canucks.
Do you know if the hog gut is made with hog casings like for making sausage?

Thankyou sir. Yes it is real natural hog casings cut lengthwise to whatever length wanted then glued in layers to number of layers wanted. In my case 4 layers was sufficient. They have to be cleaned well and degreased and then dried. It’s a much lighter covering for sinew then rawhide.
