I ordered a 4000 lb super winch.  It should be here on Wednesday.  I'll use a snatch block  set up if I still need it.

Redoing a form and ran a screw into my bandsaw blade. Pretty much killed it. I'd had it on there a long time anyway so it didn't hurt as bad....
Stay sharp, Kenny.

Well, I've m some progress on my latest bow.  Something I'm building for a lady up in Denver.  Once I get this one done, I can start (re) building my "victim's" bow.

This is a picture of the blocks of maple and redheart that I used to make the accent strip.
