Hickory/boo Giveaway ! WINNER
« on: July 27, 2008, 08:05:00 PM »
I and my scouts have been on the receiving end of the gangs generosity plenty of times. I have a hickory stave that is fresh cut, but beautiful. Straight grained and clear of any knots. The growth rings are tight. I figure that somebody could use it this winter. I have a heat box that I could throw it in for a week or two to speed up the process. I will throw in a bamboo backing strip. It is 1-1/2 " wide and 72" long. It will need to be planed. I will take names this week and next week because I will be on vacation. I will send the 2 pieces to the winner on the condition that they do a build along. I haven't seen one in a while. Please only participate if you are serious about building the bow. Thanks to Tradgang for all they do for kids!!!
Brian

I'm working on a Hickory Holmegaard Style bow now, and have a BBI glue up on order from CA, plus looking for a good Osage stave again - so I'm NOT in on this most generous offer - but I surly will be following the lucky winner's build-a-long. Way to go, horatio, great offer.

Great deal Brian. I'm only in to watch the build along. No bow building for me. Come on bowyers, more names in the hat.
