Thanks for the pictures. That really helped. I have a feeling my wife is going to be missing a pair of scissors soon. While my osage is drying, I have been getting ready. I built a shaving horse, made a tillering gizmo, made a center finding tool, and today I mounted a vise on the corner of my work bench. My next day off I am going to try and make a tiller tree/stand. I was thinking of using 2" wide blue painters tape and making a grid on some white plywood to put behind bow while tillering it. I thought it would make it easier to judge the bend on both limbs. I have also been out scouting some more osage trees. Thanks again for the help.
