Half Skins...Gotta a Short Snake No Problem

That looks really cool. If you wouldn't have told us we would have thought it was meant to be that way.

When I saw Dean's Firestyxs with faded snake skins many years ago at Denton, I was in AW. In fact, Dean was the guy who taught me how to make selfbows...way before he wrote his books.  I don't know why he took me under his wing that year at Denton but I'm indebted to him for it...tippit

Very nice Tippit!

That is really nice!  It is cool to follow you on this journey to revamp your bows.

First I've seen and I like it.

You are a very skilled man. WOW

Thanks for all the kind words. Maybe it's in my genes, my dad was a fine woodcrafter of gun stocks, furniture and carver of decoys.  Now my son has his onw blacksmithing shop doing fine metal work for homes and started crafting very nice knives.  He's a much better blacksmith than I am.  I think that family tote pole must have grease on it cause I seem to be sliding down.

I've been wanting to do the same thing for awhile now, got lots of small copperheads. Thanks Jeff, you may have just pushed me to go ahead and try some.
