Title: Bow building materials
Post by: BigJim on April 10, 2020, 08:23:08 AM

Just wanted to give an update. We have received our actionboo and td components. They are up on our website for sale.

We will cut bamboo down for shipping if desired.

Thanks, BigJim

Jim, will you sell the threaded inserts and/or bezels and washers without the rest of the hardware?

BigJim, do you plan on having the carbon sleeve kit available at some point again?

He already does! You get everything you need in one kit to do 4-5 bows. (If I remember right)

Thanks crittergetter. Yes that is true on the td kit. We also have a very large supply of dry exotics. I emphasize dry, because when you purchase wood from me, your going to know that what you get is going to be ready to use... or on occasion, it won't be ready but I would let you know that and you make the choice if you want to purchase anyway.

We currently have very little wood listed on our site. We just can't get around to listing any... but we have great plans! There's just not enough of us here to go around.. but i'm working on that too.

Black and white ebony? probably 500 blocks cut and most are dry and ready. black and white ebony veneers? 100 plus full sets cut and wood set aside for more than a 1000 sets.

Macassar, zebra, bocote, maple, buckeye burl, walnut burl, bubinga, Asian laurel, myrtle...just to name a few.

Then there's bearpaw glass, smooth-on glue, stabilcore, air hose, air hose plugs and hardware, and oh yeah! we have G10 and phenolic.

Thanks, BigJIm

One day, we will have everything listed on the website...I hope :)



Thanks, BigJim

Jim, I was shopping last week and your site said that your steel pressure strips were out of stock.  Do you have any in 1.75"?

The steel pressure strips are back in stock. I will have the office up date that.
Thanks, BigJim
