finally finished one(pics)
« on: November 07, 2007, 09:09:00 PM »
I finally finished a bow I've been working on in my spare time for the past 12 weeks.  
 Had some issues with the gloss t bird finish and had to re-do it. I think it had past its shelf life as it was over 2 years since I opened it. I ordered some satin to try for the first time. It sprayed on with a very even, fine texture that I really like. The sheen is nice also. I just hit it real lightly with 0000 steel wool and was finished.
 This is actually the twin to one I had made earlier but it's 66" long and the deer head inlay is a little bigger.
 Thanks for looking, Mike
