10 years later... my Osage is ready.
Muskyman:
Looks good to me so far. Bend looks like it’s even. I’ve had sore spots disappear as I kept working the limbs down. Maybe once you get the limbs thinner you can get some glue into the check on the tip.
Good luck with it.

That's the plan, the seem to be only on the side so I think I can get it to a brace and get a string on it today and glue the checks after I tiller it the rest of the way. I need to build a jig first. My tips need some straighting. I can feel it in the handle when you pull back. Might even reflex the tips a bit.
The back is very rounded. Seems to be tillering fine so I'm rolling with it.

Fake workshop.
Too clean.
I said what I said.
:D

Too funny! You’d like my shop then! I call it organized chaos. Lol
Muskyman:
What my shop needs is a dust collection system. Everything is covered with dust and the floor is taking on a Osage orange cast to it. It did start out like the picture above but that didn’t last. Started out a shed for me and my wife but I kinda took it over and now my wife says I have to build one for her. :BB
