Muskyman:
I saw that too Dave. I figured it was oil. I like the jig too. That caught my eye first thing. Small and compact and easy to stash away. I’m probably gonna have one someday.
Oh and I like the bow too.
ajooter:
Avacado oil actually! I've used coffee as well...I love the smell of the wood when your putting heat to it.

Hah. I knew it! Ya I do similar but use tung oil. With it hot it sinks deep in there. Nice.
Hamish:
Lovely bow, it's got all the curves in the right places.
Got to agree with the boys, that's a well-made bending jig.
hammerstone:
I built the same jig a few days ago.Dont know where you came up with that adjustable base but it's genius. When I try to use it in my bench mounted vise , a long bow will hit on the ceiling of my shop. With that base I could use it anywhere. Thanks for sharing.
Nice curves on the hickory.
