I made that in 2017.
That one is Cocobolo Canary Cocobolo and I still have the Canary Cocobolo Canary riser blank.

Today I ground down the riser on a Black and a White Ebony Longbow I had been waiting to get back to and finish. I still have some work to do. But it's getting closer. First shot 7 ish paces. Feels good. JF

Doing nothing today. Same as yesterday and the day before and the day before that.

Got covid!!    Let me tell you it sucks. I was reluctant to get shots and booster, but very glad I did. Cant imagine how back it would be otherwise.

Leftover wood from my riser and limbs I just cut out. Charcuterie board. Hate letting exotic wood go for scraps. Black Limba, Canary, wenge/bamboo stripes.

For a Hillbilly you sure throw some fancy words around.  What n the heck is a "Charcuterie board".  :biglaugh:

Somebody I was "training with" called them a cooter board. I laughed my butt off. Came home and told the wife and she said " I ain't eating nothing served on a cooter board!"


Buggs, hope you get well soon! Wife and I both have had both shots and boosters and we sre the only ones we know that have been covid free. I have had 2 coworkers my age die from covid!

Nice serving tray.
Over/underlays for the riser.

Thanks for the well wishes guy's. Fever free today. Although I am afraid I would not yet be able to taste anything served on that beautiful Charcuterie board!

You make some fine looking bows, Mad Max :thumbsup:

I've had rubber tires get dry out and get hard, never had a rubber or urethane one break.
You must be cutting a whole lot of material all the time!

New ones are urethane, looks just like original. I saw a LOT on it, have to look when I bought it. Several years old I think.
