Man Cave Changes

Kevin Winkler · April 23, 2010, 10:08:00 AM

I've been doing rehab from hip surgery at home and have been stir crazy. I finished another bow rack and have been rearranging my man cave along with slinging a few arrows in the basement. Here are a few pics.

I used a piece of Catalpa wood with some wild grain for the feathers

Then I used a piece of walnut for the broadhead and footed the shaft with Black cherry

I have a few more things I'm working on, I'll post a few more pics when I'm done.

You did your bows proud.

Very Nice

Chuck, I cut the angle on my bandsaw, sanded and spliced two piece of ripped cherry for the footing. Then I hand planed it to shape.
I got the general idea from Whip when I had seen some of the ones he had made.

The next project will be a combo bow rack and arrow holder. I want to cut strips of light and dark wood glued up for the fletch to simulate barred feathers on my next project. I plan on making some to donate for worthy causes and maybe a few to sell.....if I get time?

How cool is this!!

michbowhunter · April 23, 2010, 11:24:00 AM

How many grains per inch???
That is very very cool! Great work!

Very nice. That is a cool rack. I also like the bear mount with the deer skull. It is a great way to display a couple trophies.

Saw-wheat, Kevin!

That arrow should spine-test around
1,730.0 pounds, eh? :D

He didn't show you the pool table and bar in the other corner. What a great place to gather!

Some day my mancave will be cleaned. It is a mess with arrows, bow stuff, predator stuff, rifle stuff, laying everywhere. Yours is awesome. Love the bow rack!!

See, those are the kinds of pictures my wife does NOT want me looking at....gives me too many ideas. I have yet to get a portion of the house claimed as my "man-cave". Heck, my last set of deer antlers are hanging on the wall in the laundry room. Yours looks awesome
