That is the most beautiful bow I've seen in a long time.  Brushwolf, your Kung Fu is best...

Finally reworked my Model #1 longbow form from my prototype.  I added an extra inch of reflex at the tips.  I'm hoping for a bit more cast than the original without sacrificing stability and smoothness.

I'm building a 64" bow off this form to start, though I've designed it to allow anywhere from 62"-66".

I'll keep you posted, we'll see if this dog hunts or not!

Been some time since I have been able to get back in the shop. Between being down 9 officers at one point and then going back to school to get my BA in criminal justice has taken up all my time. Any who... with turkey season about a month away I wanted to sand down and clear a bow I completed last fall. I ended up knocking it on something and chipping the edge of the shelf. So this week I should be able to get the clear on it again.



Hope all is well with everyone! I miss you guys and will be back soon enough with some new bows. Going to make a pair for myself and my girlfriend in the next month.

Woke up at 4 AM and couldn't sleep.  I put this handle wrap on an ASL. And fiddled with the forum profile.  They were not the same as the settings on the old software.  Even the time was off.

Nice to see you, Justin.

Very nice..

You posted a thumbnail picture, which is fine.

After you select your picture from your PC or phone, just to the right of the little window where the picture name appears, click ( Insert Attachment 1 ). That will make the picture full size in your post.
