Nice looking bow Lee, thanks for the update. The bend in that bow looks great.

I really like that pillar tillar to get it to brace heigth.  

I'm still waiting on the ok to ship and she will be off to ******.  The way its going the ol mailman is going to be super busy in a month or so. lol

Lee, Looking good. I know what you mean about the work being a priority, I'm in a similar situation,thought mine would have been in the mail weeks ago...Dan

I am waiting on one to rehydrate. I'll try and remember to snap a pic soon.

Man lots of good stuff going on here!!!

Looks like some sweet shooters going out soon  

I am going slow on my tillering as soon as  I can get it on a shorter string I will snap some pics. With the re-curves I don't think that will be anytime soon.

Great work.

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I keep scraping away!!!!

Looks good, Lee. Glad your workin' again.

I had my wife snap some pics as I was tillering this afternoon. Hopefully I/she will be able to upload pics for ya'll to critique.

The bow is tillered to 26". The positive tiller is smoothing out better. There's 1/8" positive tiller now. I remeasured the fades with a thickness gauge and the lower fade was slightly thicker. After working it down the tiller looked better to me.

I pulled the bow to 27" on the tiller tree but decided to give it a rest until tomorrow.

It shoots very well and is quiet.

Keep your fingers crossed!  :D

I was planning on working on my trade bow this weekend, but I just heard that theives have hit my farm so I have to go there this weekend and clean up the mess.  Fun Fun.

sorry to hear that DVS

Sorry to hear of your troubles David.

Sorry Dave.

Dave sorry to hear that...  I hope they didn't do to much damage.

well I scrapped a bit more this evening I have it pulling about 35LBs at about 4". I hope to scrap until I can get it on a short string tomorrow. If I do I will get you some pics.

DVS, hope the trouble at your farm wasn't too bad.

I've finished tillering my trade bow. It is pulling 57-58 lbs at 28".  After shooting a few dozen times, I think it's almost ready for finish sanding and tip overlays. Of course, I'll shoot it a lot more just to make sure it's gonna be ready to ship.

I'm still having fits with posting pics. We've had issues with the internet this weekend and my wife can't even get on line. So pics will hafta wait.

Sorry, ******

Finally got the handle wrap and rest worked out on my trade bow, need to take a little of the shine off the finish yet, then it's ready to ship. I'll get a few pics up later in the week.

Kelly, I'll PM you when it's ready to go.
