Title: piece of wood from Israel
Post by: ordcorpdw on October 12, 2012, 07:15:00 PM

So I wanted to do a new bow for the deer season in AZ this year. I got a nice board of Ipe from tenwood, some padauk from that one auction site, then this piece of olive wood from Bethlehem Israel for the riser.   (http://  http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/c0.33.574.574/s480x480/523676_531578573522335_73184951_n.jpg)  hoping for something unique. We shall see.

I have a rosary that has the beads made from olive wood.
Very pretty wood.
