Title: Wood backings - Where to buy?
Post by: Blue EagleBum on January 17, 2010, 12:44:00 PM
I have been looking everywhere, except the right place. Where is a good place to buy wood backings, other than just hickory. Like maple, tiger maple, curly maple, osage, purpleheart, etc.

Wes,

Are you building glass bows or "all Natural" bows.

You can buy veneers for glass bows at Binghams.  But I would not recommend using any of the mentioned woods as backing material on an "all natural" bow.
