storing selfbows
« on: February 20, 2018, 09:31:06 am »
Hi all,
I'm going to store my bows in my boiler room (a basement in NYC) and the humidity hangs around 50% and temp around 80. You think that's okay?

Beautiful climate.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

 :OK
Wish my storage area was that warm.
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

You might want to hang them on a rack.

In the summer, the humidity in the basement may rise and the temperature will fall....
