Nice, Kenny...

Looks to be about 32 pounds:)

Like that riser Kenny! It's going to pop when finished.

That looks really nice Kenny and it helped me out. I have about 4 risers worth of Cherry with some nice wavy character. I just have not been able to figure out what veneers would go with it. It's similar in color to what you have there so I'll bet either spalted maple or that Tamo Ash would do well.

You and me both.

Ordered glass from Kenny and started the riser glueup this weekend. Getting there. Hope my victim thinks yew, Osage, and pink go well together.

Roy, you KNOW that camera is in your sock drawer!

canopyboy · « **Reply #1313 on:** April 01, 2019, 12:57:51 PM »

Yeah, but what about the batteries? They may be somewhere else.

canopyboy · « **Reply #1314 on:** April 01, 2019, 01:20:19 PM »

BTW, I don't know why some of you like that yella wood so much. It makes the shop seem so much messier. The picture doesn't do it justice, but one little piece of osage and my whole shop is smack you in the face yellow...

goobersan · « **Reply #1315 on:** April 01, 2019, 01:22:47 PM »

Can't see glass dust

Flem · « **Reply #1316 on:** April 01, 2019, 03:15:39 PM »

Egads! Hope your lungs ain't yellow

. Did you build that edge sander? Looks nice.

I'm going on round two. Actually have real Walnut this time around. Did learn that Butternut will make a good kids Bow

Going to have to decide on a riser

Still need to layup some glass. Hopefully tomorrow. Need to get this thing done.

TradBowyer · « **Reply #1317 on:** April 01, 2019, 04:01:07 PM »

ok so I don't see many wood bows going on so i decided to build a self bow to put some variety in this place. help me vote on a stave. hickory on left, ash in middle, osage on right

Flem · « **Reply #1318 on:** April 01, 2019, 04:32:39 PM »

1 vote for Ash.
I've only seen Mountain and Oregon Ash. I guessing yours is something else?

Roy from Pa · « **Reply #1319 on:** April 01, 2019, 04:45:15 PM »

Only the shadow knows:)
