2023 bow trade - BUILD IN PROGRESS
Jakesnyder:
Hey guys sorry for the MIA. Had some family issues come up. So here's where I'm at. The bow I was building I was not happy with. I tried rushing bringing in the sides and got it a little too skinny. So I decided to start over.
I plan to have it done by the weekend. The bow is sugar maple. It is 62in long. I'm doing a strait forward design. 1.5in wide at the fades and strait taper to .5in at the nocks.. I got it all roughed out and starting to bend.
superdav95:
Sorry to hear that man. Hope all is well now. Looks good so far keep us posted.
Jakesnyder:
Got the bow heat treated and I decided to rawhide back it just to be safe. Moving right along...
Kidder:
Nice work Jake - looking great!
Jakesnyder:
I got the sides cleaned up tonight. I'll be starting to tiller tomorrow. I think the rawhide is dry enough. I used tightbond 3 and it was out in the sun for the past couple days
