I am fairly new to bows in general and even newer to traditional bows but never the less I am excited about building. I have read The Traditional Bowyers Bible from cover to cover (vol 1 & 2)and read numerous post on this forum. Folks - I am one of them people who can't just read something and then go do it and I understand that these books don't touch on the finer points of the craft - I have much to learn. I have to do it (repearedly) until I understand what I am doing and learn the basics. So, with that in mind, the hurdle I have at this point is a supply of appropriate wood. Where can I get a seasoned stave (several of them in fact) on which to get to work? I have a small shop, tons of tools and a fire in the belly to get to work. Any suggestions would help guide me on the trail.
