What did you do today?

[wood carver 2]

That black and white ebony looks great.
Roy, I like that tri lam. Is the ERC core lam knot free? I don't think I've ever seen 6 feet of ERC without any knots.
Dave.

[David Flanrey]

David, the skin looks great.  Just wondering what kind of snake it was.  Looks cool!

Roy, nice bow.  Man, you are cranking them out these days!  Don't you have a real job?  Wish all I had to do was play with bows!  

[Roy from Pa]

Yup Dave it was knot free, I think..    Pretty sure though:)

Yup Dave F I have a real job, for 85 more days:) Then I retire...Ya Baby

[DVSHUNTER]

I put the skins ion today and wrapped the handle on my trade bow.

Spent the day coughing up a storm but in the garage non the less. I worked on both my elm bow and BBO fix a long. Taking some of the reflex out of one limb to match the other one better. Good day all and all.

Haven't started my trade bow yet. Looking to get a jump on it when ever my new bandsaw arrives. Finally gonna have my own so I don't have to go to a school to use theirs. Can't wait to get a jump on it. I have a good idea for my trade tho.

[Roy from Pa]

What brand saw did ya buy, Justin?

[bowhntineverythingnh03743]

Nothing special Roy... I looked around and decided on a Ridgid 3/4 hours 14 inch. I don't do much heavy cutting. But its enough to cut boo and osage.

I started to split a hack berry long. I should get a stave or two out of it. I might get a pic or two up later.

[bowhntineverythingnh03743]

I just can't relax... storm brewing outside but went out into the cold and made a new tillering gizmo out of coco... putting the finish on it now... PURDY!!!

[BCWV]

I got my billets worked down for my 2 pc osage and got the sleeve installed.

 

I got her lined up through the handle but still need to try to get one limb a little straighter if I can.

 

[bowhntineverythingnh03743]

Nicely Done!!!

[k-hat]

took the day off from work to get some of that noisy messy work i can't do just any time.  I don't think the pic needs any explanation  



Workd down to a good ring on some hackberry billets i cut last summer.  They are in the top pic, here they were before:



Cut'm with a chainsaw (can ya tell?!) from a VERY large tree at a neighbor's house (he was bout to cut it into firewood).    

It was so hard chase a ring     :

 

Can somebody help me, i can't see 'em    

I've never seen hackberry with rings like this!

Man Oh Man Roy, give a guy a warning, put a disclaimer on that thing or something      :eek:      
My eyes, my eyes, help, I don't think that image is ever gonna leave my mind.

But that Tri-lam is a beauty, but looks abit to heavy for you, better find someone with a bit more muscle to send it to    

Alot of great bows on here now, good job to all, keep up the good work.

[Frosty the Bowman]

I spent about an hour today shooting the loaner longbow that my freind in Hawaii sent over to me.
Man Oh Man is that a sweet shooting little bow

[mwosborn]

Glad you enjoy flinging those arrows Frost.  You will have to get busy and get one made so you don't have of go without one when you have to send her back!  Got any blisters yet?

[Frosty the Bowman]

No no blisters yet, either I'm thick skinned, like my head, or i'm not shooting enough  :D  

Hey what are the odds on this fight, I want in, I'm thinken Kenny in round two, and thats just because he don't want be to mean to Ol' Roy, so hell let him have his "litte gun show", then game over.

Sorry Roy, better luck next time, but hey maybe you'll get lucky, he's been sick  :p

[Roy from Pa]

Frosty, Kenny has been sick for a long time..    
I hain't skeered ole boy:)

Today I got the Tri lam pulled to 20 inches on the tree, not looking to shabby. Have a 1/8 + tiller on her which is what my bow design seems to like.
