Title: # 4 out of the oven
Post by: Dmaxshawn on June 10, 2009, 07:37:00 PM

I got number 4 out of the oven and roughed in I think it came just ok. I could use some improvments.  This one is 62 inches and will finish 54-56lbs pending on the sanding Coco riser and overlays with zebra veneers under clear glass.  All thanks to Kenny.  enjoy

nice job Shawn, I really like the riser. Helen wants me to build her a bow like that one. I'm still working on my first recurve form. Found out the hard way that I need to wear 1.0 reading glasses when sanding forms...bought a 2 hp router today

Robert you should have called man and drove up here and we would have knocked it out in no time.  Hey by the way theres a 6 x 48 belt sander on craigslist here locally.  Might work out for you.


Kenny thanks man I am having fun with this    :jumper:    :jumper:

I'll check it out, thanks for the offer, I am learning the hard way..never needed the glasses before, I am 46 years old and the eyes aren't as good as they once were
