Great shooting Andy way to go bud.

Today I went out hoping to find a gar so I can get me some skins for a bow. Did not find a gar but did get 10 good size crappie to bad they are not big enough to skin a bow.

Put the 3rd coat of poly on a dozen surewood douglas fir shafts.. They sure are nice arrows.

Those surewoods are about as good as it gets, for sure.

Thats what my turk arras are, but with Massey finish.

Tryin it to keep target burn to minimum, still stickin to them a bit, think too much acetone in mix.

"Three Rivers sells a crappie stretcher:)"
Roy, how much fer one of them thar stretchin thingies?? Can you use it on other things or just fer fish skins?

We have a new 10 inch limit on our lake it takes catching 300 crappie to make a 30 limit. I wonder if enzite will work on a crappie.

I have some surewood shafts I made 3 years ago and have banged them off more rocks, what I thought was soft stumps and trees squirrel hunting and the majority are still flying. love them

Keenan ole boy, if yer thinken what I think yer thinken, forget it. They don't make an extra small stretcher.. Try tweezers son. I think Medicare will cover them too. ROFLMAO

This evening I started refinishing a longbow I made a few years ago. It had some scratches and a chip out of the one limb tip. New tips, new finish, and a new leather grip and it will look brand new

Back in the shop making a dozen arrows. I sent all of my other ones out to a kid in SD who is starting to make bows but didn't have any arrows. Now I gotta build some more to shoot again!

I worked on one of those things that goes "spark, whoosh, boom", but can't post a picture because it is against the rules.

Osagetree · « **Reply #956 on:** April 11, 2012, 03:24:00 PM »

I like that sound as much as thwack!

Got some aluminum stock to make new guides for the old bandsaw I bought the other day. Problem with a 75 year old saw is they don't make parts any more. Oh carter products makes some but you may as well buy another saw.

Dan Landis · « **Reply #958 on:** April 11, 2012, 07:48:00 PM »

Put 2 coats of tru oil on my trade bow, 5 coats of diluted TBIII on some arrows, and started fletching them.....Dan

Living_waters · « **Reply #959 on:** April 11, 2012, 11:11:00 PM »

Eric I know it is against the rules but I worked on my double barrel today that I am gonna use Monday on an old tom hopefully, and I am gonna post some pics.

I knapped one out of Burlington chert and another out of blue glass. But as you see one is not blue glass, I dropped it while notching it and broke it (note to self, dont knap glass on the concrete porch). so I knapped another one out of obsidian, not a bad afternoon.
