Nice shop Bue!

Bought my Maryland NR license today. Going to a buddy's farm this weekend and I have Roy's second-hand sika hunt in January. Hope my luck improves. It's been a long season so far.

Photobucket drives me nuts at the moment, can only post one picture at the time and difficult to copy, the mark and copy box just flashes.
Well, I made a full lenght taper board. This is by no means a new invention, but I have not seen pics of one before. I first jointed and machine planed a hardwood board 78"x2"x1/2". I then contact cemented two tapers from MC with the thin ends in the middle of the board, Since the tapers were 36" long and I wanted the whole thing to be 78" long I put a spacer in the middle with the same thickness as the taper's thin ends. I then contact cemented a long strip of 120 grit abrasive paper on top. When I place a parallel lam on top it can be run through a planer or lam grinder. A lam grinder is best if you want a real thin finished product. But to make a little thicker lam for a trilam all wood bow the planer works just fine. I used a short haired roller to spread the contact cement. Bue--.

For crying out loud buemaker that's your shop. Very nice I would show pictures of your shop to my wife but then again she'd just show me pictures of somebody else's house.

What a shop Bue!  All that's missing is an easy chair and big screen tv and it would look like someone's family room.

Bue - That shop is nicer than my house.

Tonight I put the first coat of finish on two new mild r/d longbows I started on Thanksgiving.  One is for the son of my advisor from back in my grad school days at WVU.  And I figured while I was making him a bow I'd make one for myself since the bow I used this season was unlucky and didn't bring any deer in for a shot this season.  I'll get some pics up once I'm done with the finish process.

Thanks for the pic Bue - I think!? Now I am dealing with jealousy. I call a bow building party at Bue's place!
