Post by: Bowjunkie on January 09, 2016, 01:13:00 PM
I finished this bow rack this morning. Made from a couple pieces of osage and some antlers.

I suppose it could have. But it's over 6' long.

Thanks for the kind words fellas but nature did most of the work.

John, they're attached with 2" drywall screws. I drilled pilot holes in the antler and countersunk the back of the osage.
