Bow Swap Interest
« on: January 22, 2025, 03:52:33 PM »
Looking to gauge interest in the 2025 Bow Swap.  I'll open a signup thread if we have 6 or 8 willing to participate this year.

I’ve been trying to decide while waiting for this thread to show up, working on a new design over the winter. Some new work has come up in the meantime, so I’d be chipping away at it in the spare time, slowly.  Soooo……yes?

I'm a bit hesitant due to shop workload, but I could try to do something . May be a little plainer bow this time...
Stay sharp, Kenny.

I'll put the signup thread up tomorrow morning (afternoon for you guys).  I'm on night shift for a couple months so most of my posting will be later in the day.

I’ve been on the fence since you posted. I’ll join in if you guys would want a wood bow.

Or you could just send me one that looks like a bow this year.  45 @ 30" would be fine.   :biglaugh:

But that one did look like a bow, if you squint your eyes, cock your head and forget what a bow is supposed to look like. But got you something carved out and heat bent yesterday. Just gotta see if it hold together through tillering.

Is there a rookie category for this?  Ive made a few bows now. I’ve learned a lot from kennym.

Please don’t let my referencing kennym reflect badly on him. What Ive learned is by “correspondence course” emails and a lot of questions. He’s the man. I call him Sensei.
