Osage Longbow Build Balt Trad Classic

(1/7) > >>

bigcountry:
Well, I took a class the 08 Trad classic and was able to build my first Osage bow.  34 hours of labor and still need to finish it up.

Here is the log after debarking and seeing which ring I want

 

bigcountry:
Lets get busy chasing that badboy.

 

bigcountry:
Finally got the hang of seeing early wood and late wood and feeling the cruchiness with a draw knife.

 

bigcountry:
Almost there, late into the night first night.  I have only 1ft left to go but gotta go home. Can't feel my hands, and hurt all over.

 

bigcountry:
Finally, next day Friday down to the ring, and have to clean up around those pin knots clustered.
