Nice looking bows Swissbow and MMax.

I am still here!  Just not doing much bow building recently!

I have been playing around with a little bit with a couple of different recurve designs over the winter trying to find one I like.  I am thinking my trade bow will be one of these designs.  Not much time to work on trade bow since the first of the year - work (school) has kept me busy.  May 17th is almost here and then I will have time to work on some bows.  Ordered some glass and some glue from Kenny so I should be ready to go.
Enjoy the hunt!  - Mitch

I'm a bit out of things at the moment.
Been dealing with a bunch of medical issues recently.
Haven't been near any bow work.
Waiting on test results at the moment.
Hoping to get back at it ASAP.
Creativity and the search for knowledge are what keep me sane(ish)

Mines all shot in and ready to head out. It's only been pulled and shot to 27" where it shoots well. But after looking at it at full draw, it should be able to handle a couple more inches with no fuss. If the new owner should desire.
Are we able to ship any time, or do we need to wait for an ok? I can't remember.

A few more coats of finish, write the specs on the bow, and twist up a new string and I'll be done and ready to ship also.

Folks I am going in for surgery Wednesday and head back to KS Thursday but plan on being back up and running on here by Monday but just in case you don't here from me over the weekend I was just letting you know.

Oh I and I have one bow as shipped. Watch your door steps and porches.

You'd better recover quickly. We may get a little rambunctious.

But I'll be shipping after my next paycheck. I just gotta find a long skinny tube.

I believe I am the first to receive a bow this year.  Got a beautiful recurve in the mail today from Al Dean.  Riser is Bumbinga and Olive Drab Action wood.  Limbs are Olive Drab Glass on the backs with clear glass over bumbinga on the front.
Will do my best to get some pics up real soon.

Mine is all done and ready to ship, will get pics of that as well.
