On the tiller for the first time, just rough shaped. Hope poundage is in the ballpark.

I have Shellac and have worked with it some. My experience is that, regardless of how I apply it, it globs on really thick and never seems to dry correctly so I end up stripping it back off and starting over. Can it be thinned?

It's better if cut with alcohol. I cut it about 50/50 with denatured and sand it in hard. It will still be gloppy but when it's cured it's easy to sand out. I use the zinser bullseye clear. The Amber will give an Amber undertone which is fine if you want that.

There's much classier shellac out there in dry form.

But, I think Kenny gave you the best solution. Whole thing done in an hour and a half.

It's my first attempt at a gwass bow Roy, I was gonna call you and ask how green you could use it...

It's pretty thin backing right now tho, will probably peel off....

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #533 on:** February 18, 2019, 04:48:59 PM »

Ya have my # son.

Ya gotta use the good double sided tape and laminate both sides of the gwass before glue up and sprinkle 10-10-10 on it @ 1 pound per foot of lamination.

Well I made up a super ugly calico string for my picks bow tonight and stuck on a rest. It's ready to goto a new home. I need to get it out of here before I decide to keep it for myself. There's a reason and a story why I finished it so quickly but that will have to wait.

goobersan · « **Reply #538 on:** February 19, 2019, 05:56:09 AM »

Need my address Travis ??

Buemaker · « **Reply #539 on:** February 19, 2019, 06:31:31 AM »

Wow finished already, one lucky guy has a beauty coming.
