Trad Gang

Well I've been getting some great updates on my Kanati including pictures of the bow in various stages of being built.  I think it's going to the spray booth sometime this weekend and I should hopefully have it late next week or early the week of 13th.

Should have it in time to take it to the Michigan Bunny shoot on the weekend of the 18th...if you want to see a Kanati I will have this one or my current model.     :campfire:    

I will post some "approved" pictures once I get a chance later tonight but I can't wait to see this thing in my hands!

Going to be a 60" and somewhere in the low 50's @ 29"...gray actionwood cross-cut veneers with Rosewood DymondWood/Phenolic riser.

Hope all is well!

Thanks,

Josh

Sounds awesome    :campfire:

Josh,
You sure have been picking up some nice bows. A Kanati and a Talltines on order.  :thumbsup:  Very nice !!!


Bill

He's really killing me...just sent me another pic of it shaped but not sprayed, AWESOME!

Sorry but no pics until later tonight.

Josh

Man,.sending you in-process pics is some good treatment right there!

That's how to treat a customer!

He just sent me pics of my bow (the materials anyway). He said it is going into the press tomorrow to be glued up. It is brown actionwood with the brown action wood crosscut veneers, with red and black accents. I cant wait. Should be 50lbs@27 and 56in long.

I'm ready for some pics...tap,tap,tap!! :0)

I like the way it looks with the phenolic...great contrast, add in the gray actionwood veneers and it's going to look amazing.

I believe all of Jason's bows have bamboo cores.

Jason

They're cross-cut gray actionwood...might have to get a black glass down the road.

Can't wait until it's here in Michigan.

Thanks,

Josh

If you decide you don't want it..let me know!   :D  

Jason

oh thats cool!!

You're going to get a nice looking bow.  Be sure to post some pictures when you get it.

Wow! Very nice! I think that combo with black glass would be sharp too. Jason never ceases to amaze me. Can't wait to see some more pics of this one.

That is classy, Josh.  Striking without being gaudy.   :thumbsup:

"I think that combo with black glass would be sharp too"

My thoughts to Russ, I am building one like that next week!

Nice bow Josh its going to be a looker.I have been looking at Kanati,s and i think that riser with black glass might have push me over the edge.

As long as the USPS gets it to my door before then I will have it with me.

Wonder if we'll have snow???  It was low 50's today!!!

Josh

When is the shoot? It will be leaving here tomorrow so you better get a string made for it!

(I know a guy who builds some nice strings if you need his number)  :rolleyes:

:clapper:

great work Jason,  really classy combo there.

Great minds think alike!    :thumbsup:  

Is the one you are building going to stay at home or is it destined for some other lucky bow hunter?
