Bamboo backed ipe longbow blank
« on: April 05, 2013, 11:37:18 am »
I have a 3rivers bamboo backed IPE English longbow blank that I have had for a few years, but never worked on it.  I will trade it for a good decent osage stave at the Classic if anyone is interested.

No they are glued.  Not the best glue job in the world, but it will make a bow blackhawk.  I am almost sure it is one of the Rudder Bow blanks that 3 Rivers used to sell.

Has any reflex been glued into it? Also anything other than Osage or staves that you would trade it for? Thanks SS

No SS. It is a straight glue up.  And there is nothing I need at this time, thanks.

PM me your email and I will send you pics of some osage I cut and split last month. I will be there, and have an extra osage stave or two. You can probably split these staves again and get two workable staves.

Wildman.  I sent you a pm, but it says your box is full.  If you want the bow blank for a stave, get in touch with me.
