Title: Brazilian Walnut hard wood floor and oak Take down recurve
Post by: StoneAK on March 27, 2011, 03:15:00 PM
I had some oak and brazilian walnut hard wood flooring left over and decided to make a take down recurve. I just started the riser and here is the rough cut      (http://http://i56.tinypic.com/2lkths3.jpg)    (http://i56.tinypic.com/2lkths3.jpg)Here is the final shaping all I need now is sanding and the hardware that will be here soon.   (http://i55.tinypic.com/105y8ea.jpg)     (http://i54.tinypic.com/v75ahj.jpg)

Looks good to me.  I have a couple in the works with Brazilian walnut as well, first time to use it supposed to be some tough stuff.

I used it in my gun room it was the hardest hard wood flooring I could get. So I just thought about using the extra for this little project.
