Title: Bamboo and Ipe Giveaway!
Post by: tenbrook on December 26, 2012, 07:32:00 AM
I just hit my 1,000th post and figured it was time for a giveaway.

As some of you know I sell Bamboo and Ipe here through the classifieds. Real nice stuff used for making a BBI (Bamboo backed Ipe) bow.

Anyhow, I will be giving away one set of Bamboo and Ipe for making a bow.   If you want your name added to the drawing just make a post here      http://tradgang.com/noncgi/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=163;t=000184;p=1#000001      stating that you would like to be included.  You can also find the thread in the Z Giveaways section here on Tradgang.  

I will pick a winner on the 1st.

Thanks and good luck!      :thumbsup:    

Tenbrook

Here is a copy of my add so you know what your getting.

 
QuoteI have some VERY high grade Bamboo and Ipe I would like to sell.

The Ipe is hand selected by me.  I usually go through hundreds of boards before I find just the right one.  The grain will be very straight and the wood nice and dense.  They are cut into 72"x 1.25"x 3/4" pieces.  These pieces are a full 3/4+" thick giving you enough wood to do 1-2 BBI bows depending on the desired draw weight.

The Bamboo is the Highest Grade Bamboo Slats they sell and a full 8' x 2".  I will chose the best 72" (based on node placement) and cut before shipping.

The picture is just some of my supply.  I have a TON of this stuff.

$49 (for one piece of Boo and one piece of Ipe).  

Thanks       :thumbsup:                

Tenbrook

I was gonna ask you Cody if you have any more boo and Ipe.

Great stuff, I got mine today and by cutting them to center the nodes it will help me out greatly. When I get a bow out of the stuff I will let you know.

Well, I was fortunate enough to get a shot on a nice lead doe last evening.  She came in at about 10 yds and I made the shot count.  This was a bow I made from Ipe that I got from tenbrook(Cody Dumont).  I couldn't be any happier.  This site makes something like this all possible.  Thanks for looking!

I asked this in the Vocabulary "sticky", but what exactly is Ipe?

Happy New Year!

Ipe is also called Brazilian walnut. Dense, hard and good looking wood, makes good bows and hard wearing flooring.
Happy New Year!
Dave.
