Who will be working in the bowshop today?
Thanks and same to you. I will be in the shop for awhile after church. Got me a new bandsaw last week. Can't seem to stay away from it.
I may spend a little time in the shop but for the most part taking the day off to spend with the wife a 5 kids.
Little BBQ, horseshoes, volleyball and more BBQ.
Life is good....... Happy fathers day all.
I hope to get out there today...bow building has been a little slow since we had our son!
Wife leaves for work at 2PM, so I have a BBO to finish tillering and a couple of takedown birch plywood forms to finish up. 90 degrees here in SW Pa, but the shop has AC:) Happy Fathers Day guys..
I've been out there already today...put some more tru oil on a graduation gift bow for one of my students, prepped a BBO for some stain, and after not being happy with anything else I tried, I just "blotted" 3 different colors of stain on a BBO belly and sides...I think it will be great for hunting...not too excited about working out in the shop since it's 90 already...
I'll call my dad later today and my sons had better get in touch with me too... LOL.
ill be framing my bench today and setting it up, as well as setting up my bandsaw. also have to get another coat of tung oil on my longbow. rest of the day will be spent with my kids and family.
Just got done putting my first coat of Tru-Oil on the back of my new Take Down Osage selfbow this morning. Got company coming this afternoon. Dean
I can't call myself a bow builder as of yet but hope to spend a little time out there. Family is on their way now.
Enjoy your day fellas.
Take care, Ed :campfire:
Not in the shop, but out out working the fruits of my labors.
Spent most of the day with my daughter and wife. I did get to put about 40 arrows through a 2 pc. osage take down that I finshed tillering yesterday, so far so good.
no bow work, but I did get two awesome osage logs to split into staves.
