Will with his latest fence post bow off the form,it's looking good.
GregB and BigA skinning some Squirrels. Heating and re flexing my Hickory bow,the wood was cut in 95 so it should be well seasoned. Looking good so far.
The new neck knife I just finished to go with the sheath Becki made for me. It was
also made for the 100 year old disk blade. Hope yall had a good one I know I sure did. Life is Good.

Friday and ready for another great weekend at the Cabin, got lots of plans so we will see how they work out, ;)been working on my Hickory bow and Persimmon bows this week and the Hickory came in under weight so I piked it and started flipping the tips last night,if all works out it should come in mid 40's. Also took 2 more hides out to thaw and need to rack them up today. As of now only 10 scouts are coming on the 22nd so need to get the staves complete for them.Go figure they could come build bows or go snow skiing,most wanted to ski.

$:-\$ Thats ok ,just more we don't have to get ready for the Classic.

Hope yall have a good one.See ya Monday.

:)Life is Good.
