Title: TallTines IS taking orders
Post by: talltines on September 11, 2017, 08:57:00 AM
Hey guys.  I'll keep this short and to the point but after careful consideration and lots of prayer I have decided to continue taking orders and building the TT's bows.  The outpouring of support that was shown for me and wishes for success at other opportunities really helped to show me how special this group of people is and that not being a part of it was something I couldn't handle.  Thanks to everyone for your support and helping me to make the right decision.  Good luck this fall.
Brian

Amen!


Glad you found a way to work this out. Even though your "stock" bows are far from stock it is nice to get exactly what you want. Long live the TallTines!

That's great news Brian! Thanks a lot for continuing on. I am really excited for my new Stickflinger and counting down the days. Pictures of your Bow's that have been posted here are true beauties, you have a great eye for picking and blending woods.

Thanks again,
Steve Jr

Now that is good news.

I am sure that was a very tough decision, actually two tough decisions.

You are definitely a gifted bowyer and I am glad you are still going to be creating those beautiful bows! I was lusting after the bow you made for a certain Canadian. But he would not let it go.
Best to you,
Gary

Good to hear.  It's never fun to loose craftsmen like yourself within the community that not only do fantastic work but also are first class gentlemen.

Whew! That certainly is great news.  Although Brian would have built stock bows, he is far too gifted of a craftsman, and a superlative bowyer to simply build a few stock bows. Life as a part time or full time bowyer isn't the most profitable, but it sure is a demonstration of gifted hands and beautiful results from one's effort. I have ordered quite a few, even let a few go, and retained some of my TT favorites...and still on Brian's list because he builds a fine bow. I hope those that want to order a TT really do follow thru, and support Brian's decision to stick with his craft and ensure all who want to try one get to do so. Well worth it!

There's just something about you and "rear naked choke" that just makes me want to throw up a little bit in my mouth
