The master at work
Nice
I guess it's NOT OK

I thought you were gonna build a boat? Nice one ole timer.... :D
-
Man that's nice Roy! I sure enjoy looking at your trilams and learning from your builds, thanks!
-
What's wrong Roy
You don't rag me any more.
-
Wrong hand but I guess it's ok ;)
-
As much as I'd love to bust your chops ole man... I must admit that's pretty sweet!! :thumbsup:
Did you stain the bow, or is that just some really dark Osage?
-
I guess it's ok. Good looking bow Roy. You have those trilams figured out. Do we get a full draw pic?
-
Purty Sweet, Roy...
-
It might work out.
Do we get a full draw pic?
Let's not press it. Could be close to it's last draw! :eek:
-
Very nice!
-
It's good to see the old guy can still build a nice looking bow.
-
Nice.
-
You have that down to a science Roy!
-
Thanks guys. I have so much to do outside this time of year that I don't spend a lot of time in the shop. First thing I had to do here was figure out how to work the darn camera. It's a cannon power shot S3 and it's way over my head. Had to read the book to set up the timer delay to take these pictures. And I didn't capture the entire bow on the outside pictures:) Had to trigger the timer and run around front and pull the bow. Never said I was a camera wizard. LOL

Very nice. I am going to build me a bow just like Roy's one of these days. I have already built my form like his now I just need to gain some experience.
Walnut stain and 4 coats of tung oil -- I'll have to put that in my Roy's Tri-Lam bow notes.
