2017 Bow Swap Thread Signup Thread

[inksoup]

i have decided to join in this year again. but i do not have proper working shop atm since i have moved to capital city. but promise that i will do my best. (i have to build up some kind of shop anyway)

besides Turkey is in sloppy situation now, and nobody knows what will happen. there is a possiblty that i will not be able to receive any bow. if i sense such a thing i may require the bow shipped to my brother living in USA.

ok: i will be making glass bow (i do not think that i can make any other types in such conditions), recurve, 2 or 3 pieces.
i can have any bow RH. 50-60@28.

i hope this will be good and productive year for all of us in every situations.

I have been giving it a lot of thought and I have too much going on this year to be able to join in. I'm trying to get caught up on the work I'm committed to so that I can de-clutter the house and get it ready to sell in the hope that we find a new one this spring. Hopefully with a proper shop.

I might jump in, especially since crittergetter isn't in. No way I would want one of his goofy looking glass take downs. His last bow made me dizzy just looking at it..     That guy prolly already sent it back to him..

Your 2 piece bikini? He nuts?    

[inksoup]

hm... i have already ordered black glass strips... FYI  :D

OK, I'm in.

Got out with my last two bows which now have at least 200 arrows in them.

Didn't want to commit and let anyone down, so I wanted to have shot my last couple first.

I'll be making something all wood - ipe belly for sure - may involve maple, hickory, bamboo. Not sure yet. #45-50.

Hopefully the recipient will be happy.

As for me, anywhere between #40 and #60 right handed.

I'll be happy with anything that shoots!

The bow building bit has to be easier than what you've got to do, Kelly!

[KellyG]

[Roy from Pa]

talkingcabbage is on there twice.

[Crittergetter]

Kelly, I didn't sign up this year. To many obligations right now

[wood carver 2]

Sorry Kelly, I'm not in this year either. Too much on my plate for the next few months.

[Crittergetter]

Kind of looks like last year's sign up ! Lol

[Roy from Pa]

OH BOY.. LOL

[passion for knowledge]

Does that mean talkingcabbage is making 2?!

[SportHunter]

I didn't sign up this year, way too busy to commit. Business way up and have to deal with a commercial property fire claim and remodel etc. I'll jump in next year, good luck all!

[mwosborn]

Looks like the list is longer than those that posted that they were in?  Maybe looking at last years?     :confused:

[canopyboy]

Let me join the chorus of those who are regrettably unable to join the swap this year, but find their name on Kelly's list.

I thought last  year's list was longer though. Although both my recipient and my builder are on there. So who besides Kelly really knows?

[Horn Chaser]

I didn't sign up either this year. I have to many projects going on right now.

[KellyG]

Sorry I copied the wrong List I will fix it. I just caught it before I logged on.
