Starting Small (finished Firewood pictures)

bjrogg:
Thank You Dave.

I didn’t get either one sanded yet but firewood was 30@25 on my scales.

Certainly not the best shooting bow I’ve ever made but not bad for firewood.

I didn’t put kindling on my scales yet.

One thing this experiment showed is that kindling is to narrow for her length . She’s not very fast.

I’m pretty sure I could get the same draw length and weight with her shortened up about six inches. Still fun to shoot. Just don’t think she performs as well as she should.

I hope everyone gets a chance to try some of these things out. It would be worth it all to get someone to gain the skill and confidence that can be gained by playing with scrap wood.

Thanks for watching everyone.

I might have another lesson or two but class is probably going to take a little break for now.

Those look great, BJ.  It's always fortifying to see something worthless made into something beautiful.  Reminds me that there's hope for all of us.   :)

Thanks WB.

Yes maybe we just need to dig a little deeper to find it.

Been busy farming lately but I did manage to finish my firewood and get a few pictures.

Not to bad of a shooter for a piece of firewood

I put a water buffalo horn arrow shelf extension on too.
