Title: magnolia?
Post by: HATCHCHASER on May 02, 2010, 11:25:00 AM
I was at a bluegrass festival in Townsend TN yesterday. While walking around the venders I saw one that had a bunch of wood bowls, salt and pepper grinders etc.  All of the woods used were beautifull. Most were domestic with a lot of highly figured walnut, cherry, and maple. All of these would make a nice looking limb and I have seen them on bows. What caught my eye was a bowl made from a highly figured piece of magnolia. I have never seen a bow made with magnolia. Has anyone seen magnolia in a bow?  It sure would look nice with a dark riser.
