Wow.  Now that's what I call intimidating.  Can't wait to watch and learn.  Who is doing the tillering on that beast :).  How many people are working on this thing and who is doing what.  I know bad Chris is floor tillering and good Chris is heating.  But that is the only thing def I've heard

Whew, thought I was gonna have to drop out of participation in this project when I saw that first pic. The real stave looks much less intimidating, tear into to hawkster.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Either one would be good by me! I was thinking Cody was VERY generous to let a stave like that snake go.

Matt BC is laying/roughing it out, Im shaping it and floor tillering, and maybe gluing some horn on for tips.  Then its getting sent to Chicagoland to have the rest done. Pauly, Cody and Greg are all in the same neck of the woods.

If ya'll need anything let me know...I was gonna offer to do all the sanding, but no sense shipping it back to MI if the tillering and finish work are being done in Chi-town.

I was wondering when you might step in Drewsy. It doesn't matter where it ships back and forth from. Its still $18. Or, we can both work on it at my place. Maybe that ginger from the west side will come over for an afternoon to.

Yeah alittle late to jump in, I MIGHT have mule deer on the brain at the moment!  I can do either, just let me know! 


Dunno about that ginger dude, I think just developed a serious new obsession with the dark and monster brown trout.  8)

I got a busy week this week,n I'm gonna be gone this weekend...but I'm gonna try and fit this in this week if I can,and ill post pics of its progress....I think it would be safe and wise for me to let it sit upstairs in my house for a week or two before I ship it to pearly to let it lose any moisture left before pearly goes  cranking the heat on it to avoid any checking issues...I do this with any blank I rough it in most cases..i always let it sit for a couple weeks at the very least before I heat it up...besides ...what's the big rush...we'll have her done before the classic right guys?  ???  ::)

Since there seems to be quite a few people who want to get involved with this and only one bow, what if we were to add some accessories such as a quiver, some arrows, arm gaurd etc. just a thought.
