Sturgeon accented boo yew
WhistlingBadger:
That's another beauty. Makes me wish we had sturgeon in Wyoming. Somehow I doubt carp skins would be quite as lovely... ;D
Selfbowman:
Very nice bow! Well done!
Kidder:
Thanks guys. Dave - that’s pretty darn close to the method I’ve been using. Pearly - I think that is the solution, basically sizing it with glue, which is why it would stick the second time around. Either way, thanks!
Pat B:
With water based glues I like using Dawn dish soap and rinse with boiling water on the bow and warm water on the skins. Dawn is a great grease cutter plus wetting both the bow and skins helps them accept the glue.IMO Pearlie's suggestion of sizing first is a good idea. Buttering both sides makes for a better sandwich.
Aksel:
Beauty! with a great tiller!
