I have all my supplies, now just need to roll my plans around in my head a little. May get started this weekend.
Hey Sticks, you still planning on helping me make some yellowshavings, or have you broke all your stock? LOL!

Hell even that little bow is cooler than the weather in Montana...by the way it was -10 with a 35 mile an hour wind on top last night.  Never got out of single digits today...I'm goin drinking.

Heck yeah that little bow is cool.  Don't blame soopernate for going drinking.  I'll take good ol Tennessee weather over that, even though it seems like we have humidity year around.  Either its sticky hot or wet cold.  I might get my bow in the form tomorrow.  Not for sure though I sold my Jeep and have got to find a truck so might be truck shopping tomorrow.  Who knows

Kris, is that the trade bow you made for Roy? I don't know if he uses a back quiver.

Hi guys and gal. I don't have the equipment or the knowhow to post pics, so I'll just let you know I'm still working once in a while. I've never made a HBI or a longbow so I plan to do both at once for the swap. Got it bending really nice at 20" and it said "crack". The hickory backing cracked t a tiny flaw. I think I can heat the backing off and start over, but I glued up another one just in case. While I was waiting for glue to dry or just for a change in pace sometimes, I banged out a wavy birch selfbow so now I have plan B in place too.    Rob
Don't know how I got here and don't know where i'm going, but life is grand.
