Title: built a shave horse
Post by: bubby on September 17, 2013, 06:59:16 pm

I used the plans on the how to page with the exception of the knuckle, I built one out of 3/4" pipe, I thought that it would hold up better in the long run(http://i623.photobucket.com/albums/tt320/bubncheryl/101_4345_zps225215de.jpg) (http://s623.photobucket.com/user/bubncheryl/media/101_4345_zps225215de.jpg.html)(http://i623.photobucket.com/albums/tt320/bubncheryl/101_4346_zpsae030f96.jpg) (http://s623.photobucket.com/user/bubncheryl/media/101_4346_zpsae030f96.jpg.html)

Nicely done.  Looks solid. I want to make one but I don't have any room.  I think ill just stick to my workbench

Just finished one up  today, myself. In anticipation of more stave bows this winter I whipped one up.  Roughed out a HHB to hunt with in a couple of weeks (if all goes well)  Nothing fancy ,as it may spend some time outside.I'll try to get some pics up. They do make life easier ,don't they,Bub!
