Riser looks like black walnut marinated in old coors for 6 months..
Or could have been rum and coke, not sure...

That’s a strange technique. Def not how I make my wood harder.  :dunno:
And Pretzels go better with Pabst.

I changed my mind Lonnie.

Hurry up and build the bow. Cuz this thread is is going waaay to south waaay to fast

I finally got a chance to do some dry runs and I am pretty happy with it. Now if I can get life to stop taking up all my time I might be able to glue it up.

Definitely ready for glue.  Be careful about spilling beer in the glue.  Makes it craze. :)

Well don’t start screwing up now. Cuz you’ve still got more of your part to do.

Looking good so far :thumbsup:
