Since I'm still waiting on the Osage wood I didn't work on the wenge bow.
Well I woke up and started to tiller the red oak. Here is some pic's.
The first pic is of my Bow Shop & some tools.
1) bathroom/bow scale
2) Ferrer's rasp
3) mill bastard file ( for scrapers )
4) tillering tree
5) long string
6) tape measurer
7) small hand planner
8) Draw knife
9) bend marker ( small block of wood w/screw )
10) Rudder scraper ( for weight removal )
11) 2, clamps
12) cabinet scrapers
here is the bow on tree.... It's at 47#@15"...brace is only 2" from handle...making it 47#@13".... the right limb is the bottom limb for now... The top limb is about 1" longer & 1/8" positive tiller.
(Note) background You can see my cutting glass table, my Hot smoker under the tarp. A Freind came over so I stop for now...
