I had some left-over 2X4s and 2X2s, and needed to get the bows out of the basement and on the wall. Here's what I came up with today.

Drilled a couple of holes, cut a dowel down into pieces and rounded the ends, and glued them in.

Now all I need to do is glue a little felt over the tops of the dowels so as not to scratch the limbs, hang it up, drop the arrows in the holes, and hang them bows.

I like it. That four wheeler appears to be a rugged piece also.

That really turned out nice. :thumbsup: Good job, looks like something I need to make, if I can find room on a wall for it.
