I've been knocking up my first go at a 'curve and feeling pretty happy with the result so far. Might have couple photos next week some time.

I can't wait to see that bigbob. Your bows are always a treat for the eyes.      
Dave.

I'd be interested in a flair a long

Thanks Dave  

Worked on a bow I'm making just for me.  How selfish is that?

Can I vote again for a flare along?  

I will do one after I fix my drum sander!

Get the darn thing fixed Beachy-boy..  

Love the looks of that flare Norb    

That will truly make a sweet riser! All the work that goes into a nice looking riser is one reason why I don't like to cover it up with a leather wrap.  - that will be a riser worthy to remain unwrapped!

Got my lams and veneers skived today and got everything laid out for a dry run. Gonna have to wait till tomorrow tho. Dang it!

Said good bye to my garden.  last night weather hailed it to the ground.  Second time this year but much worse.

really sorry fella- i used to live in a hail belt too- when we lived on another continent.

Yesterday I got to meet Canopyboy. David was working in Pa here and stopped in for a visit last night around 6 PM. We had a few cold ones, walked down to the pond, then spent a few hours in the bow shop telling lies.. I sent him home with a real bow..  

I cut down a Eastern Red Cedar, I had to make room for my shop. I had the ends painted and sealed 5 minutes after it hit the ground.. I had to use one of my climbing tree stands to cut limbs up to 32ft high, then I tied a good rope onto it, cut the top section first, then the 21 ft trunk section..I ended up with 2 good sections, one is 18inch base x 21ft long with a 12" small end..the other log is 11 ft long with 12 in and 8 inch ends. I am hoping to sell the logs, if not then I will have to cut them into boards for future projects???        

nice hunka wood there!
good job cleaning up the brush too!!

I climbed the tree and cut limbs as I climbed yesterday after work, I took 2 trailer loads to the burn pile before dark yesterday..got tree down today and After painting ends today I hauled another load to burn pile. I still need to knock down 2 small orange trees and some brush to make room for another shed

If I was close by, I'd buy some of that orange wood from you. My Dad has an old hand plane made of it and it's hard as rock.
It would make a nice riser.
Dave.

The orange trees are small, if there is a piece big enough I could mail a chunk to you

Thanks for the offer, but I think customs would confiscate it for fear of importing bugs.
Dave.
