Your thoughts...?
« on: November 27, 2012, 06:43:09 pm »
These two staves are one in the same. One is the top and one is the belly split of the same stave, thanks Chickenhawk for the stave. One is roughed out way oversize and the other left full width. They are 64-66" long and all of 2 1/2" wide. No "weakness'" besides the obvious.

What would you do with them?

Somebody with my skills would have to use em for stickball or something.  :-[ 


I'm sure you will perform miracles with them, though, Pearly!!

Well, what I likely would do is craft a highly over built tomato stake, ...but what I'd like to do is entirely other and involves making bits of Port Arthur Cedar ZING through the sky at outrageous speeds led by razor sharp Burlington and trailed by Ozark Turkey plumage.  (...I'm nothing if not a dreamer!)

There are soooo many options though. Two bows, one bow, one bow joined several ways and so on. I cant decide and have been staring at the stave since May.....its killing me.


Brycey boy you ruined those chances bad mouthing the King earlier today. Dont think I didnt see that Mister. You had the King #6 or #7? Some crazy A number anyway.

As good a candidate as there is to make some kind of center shot self bow.   If the hole is in the handle, how big a bow could you get outa them?

I see a couple nice walking sticks in those!  ;D

If I don't see an arrow go through those holes I might be a little disapointed.  :'(

More great thoughts. All of them have been bouncing around for months. The hole is off center by about 4", coincidentally?

either a hole in each limb or a center-shot bow. Those are the only two really awesome choices. Plus, if its the king then it should be epic, make it happen!
