Author Topic: Jazzin' up an old Selway Guru Admin Member # 616 posted                     You guys might remeber last summer when I found this big Black snake dead on the road... I decided I would (when I got the time) put it on my Kwyk Styk to make it dark for turkey hunting in my blind. I figuered I would accent my quiver with it too.I stripped my quiver down,all lacing out,and sanded down so the black leather dye would penetrate... After it was dyed I sealed it with CA(super)glue,let dry,and toned down the shine with steel wool. After the skin was dried,I made an arrowhead template.Make the design with the paper folded,so when it's opened up,both side are symmetrical... Then layed it out on the black snake skin,traced it and cut it out...... Then I traced the inside arrowhead on a piece of diamondback skin,and cut it out...... Masking tape to remove scales.... Glued the black snake skin(damp) on with Tite bond II,let dry and fixed any edges that came loose with super glue.I then moistened the diamond back skin and glued it on top of the black snake with the CA glue..... more to come.... -------------------- Curt } >>---> "I love you Daddy".......My son Cade while stump shooting 3/19/06 Posts: 16229 | From: NY | Registered: Apr 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Guru Admin Member # 616 posted                     I sealed everything up again with CA glue...let dry and it was time to lace it back up.. Using "Timo's" great tutorial (in the "how to" forum) I laced up the quiver using the existing holes with artificial sinew..... All dryed and back on the bow...full-O-nutters... Turned out OK....I wanted to incorperate the Black snake since it would be on my limbs.But it was kinda plane,so I added the rattlesanake. When I get to doing the skins on the bow,I'll add some pix........ -------------------- Curt } >>---> "I love you Daddy".......My son Cade while stump shooting 3/19/06 Posts: 16229 | From: NY | Registered: Apr 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Glenn29 Trad Bowhunter Member # 4015 posted                     AWESOME! -------------------- Can't see the forest for all the trees..

Trad Bowhunter Member # 4932 posted                     nice curt! looks like a Black rat snake to me, up here it is illegal to posess them or thier skins, but man, that is a beauty job. I have a shed skin from one, was on an island on Graham Lk, taking a relief break. Looked down and a 6 footer was sitting at the base of a log( tree.. almost had the skin shedded, I pulled the last 2" off him, kept the shed skin. Looks way cool.
