Hey guys I am really looking for someone nice and close that could guide me through my first or even first couple stave builds. I have been building from boards for a couple years now and feel quite comfortable with layout there but for some reason stave orientation and initial stave layout seems daunting to me(knots, grain, one ring back). I honestly think that an hour or two of hands on stave time would be great. I have several staves of sage, elm, persimmon, and oak and would be happy to part with any in return. I try hard to make the meets the last couple times but have had to miss due to various reasons. Anybody local that thinks they could help just pm me!!
Thanks!

I'm in college station, if you can't find anyone locally. Only about an hour from houston or so.

Just saw your post...I'm on the southwest side of Houston and would be able to help you out.

SW houston where?? I am right around hw99 / westpark tw intersection. I would love to meet up!

I'm @ Beltway 8 and 59S...close to Sugarland...I could come out and meet you some time in the near future...what's your availability?
-
Sweet! that is pretty darn close. Pm'd you.

I also live at 99 and Westpark, if y'all have room for another in this conversation let me know. I wouldn't be much of a mentor but I'd be willing to share the resources I have and I've been looking for some other bowyers in the area!
