Title: Hey longtime no post.
Post by: imskippy on August 28, 2009, 01:06:00 AM

Hey guys, It's been quite some time since I've posted some of my work. Life in general has taken a toll on any freetime I may have had. Between buying a new house in Jan., work, firewood, children etc.. and dealing with my daughters surgeries and multiple Dr. visits in NYC. I'm finally able to say I'm getting a few much too long awaited projects finished up. Heres a few I'm working on now including my first skinner from fresh 1/8" X 1 1/4" 1084 I picked up from Admiral Steel.

1084 High Carbon Steel, Green/Charcoal Dymondwood and canarywood accents built to match a Zona Longbow.

A small necker from Zona bow scraps and sawblade steel.
