Holy schist, Jamie, you really don't take this bowmaking stuff for granite do you?  You nailed that tiller stone cold.  Brother, you rock!

Very impressive bow Jaimie. That is truely primitive by using the stone tools but there is nothing primtive about the outcome. The bow looks as good or better than some that are posted using metal tools. Once again great job.    Danny

You really need to be teaching middle school students JW!

Jamie, what type of stone did you use to scrape the belly down and was it a large chunk? Thanks!
