Who ever gets it better hope UPS takes a bit more care than they did shipping my piece of expensive UHMW channel.

I’d say Grainger got it done :biglaugh:

Got finish sanding done this morning. Final tiller looked good and came in 1.5# under. Putting base coats of clear Tbird on now. Will top it with a coat or two of satin after I get the specs on it.

Oh yea.....also put a few arrows thru it   :archer2:

Lol.  I was going to crop that out of the photo, but figured I would leave in there to see if anyone noticed it and felt clever.  You are the lucky winner Flem!

I don't know if vaseline and lucky should go together :scared:

If you had not told us about the slippage Brad, I don't think anybody would have ever noticed. Your bow looks awesome!
Grainger, GRRRRRRRR. They are on my s**# list. I don't know if I have ever sent a nastier letter than the one they got.
