Just returned form the MOJAM at Marshall Mo.Had a great time!Im just now catching up on all the building and shipping over the last few days.All I can say is WOW!Awsum work everyone!Im Still  anxiously watching the porch!I had my wife on lookout while I was gone.Cant be too careful.LOL!

I just got back to scott. I had about five pages to read! Awesome bows everyone.

I got back last night and no package for me as well but I'm in no hurry...  

On I was gifted a bow at MOjam though that blows my mind.  She is about a pound at 3.5" and can really fling a skewer.

Im In no hurry either Goose.Its just the suspence thats killing me.LOL!Its just the thought of somone knowing they are building a bow for me and I have no idea who they are.Im one who has to try to figure every thing out.You know when you watch a movie with a good twist in the end and you you were able figure it out a head of time.I love that!This is so much fun to watch play out!

I'm a little late shipping but here's a peek before it goes in the shipping tube.





It will be on the way to it's new home tomorrow.

THIS IS NOT THE FINAL TILLER!

This is the tiller BEFORE the horn is applied to the belly.

I hope you can see the tiller alright. This is
6-7 pounds shy of it's intended weight at 28".

I think "Dark Continent" might be a good name for her. Gemsbok horn on the belly, zebrawood in the handle and tigereye beads as an embellishment.

Awsome bow Kodiakid!

That is some bow kodiakkid I know **** is going to have to stop shaking once that is on their door step. I marked you as shipped also.

B she is coming along nicely. I cant wait to see it done.

Kodiak That is one sweet stick for sure. I'm a sucker for copperheads.

Bona the tiller looks pretty good. Bet some horn bellies will really set it off. Love the name and theme behind it too.

Sorry gang I got this bow on Friday and I have not had time to post a pic.

The bow is a one of a kind in my collection,,, hickory backed yew! I really like it and have had fun shooting it in the back yard Saturday and again this morning. I think the tiller is most excellent, the handle is very comfy and the craftsmanship couldn't be mistaken. Somebody's got tallent!

Fujimo!!!

And, I got extra's! Rough spruce shafts, a cool stringer and some sheep shearling I forgot to put in the pic... I will put it all to use.

Thank you so much Mr. Nicol    

 

glad you like it Joe, he was having fits with your draw and vagueness on your bows.

Great lookin' bows! Heck of a swap, folks. This has been an awesome way to spend the first seven months of 2011!!

Good thing I'm not superstitious cause I'm going to say that I am very happy with how my current bow is coming along. I got impatiant on the last bow and didn't do what I know I should have done. This bow I am using the gizmo early in the process and have plenty of wood left now that I have the limbs bending evenly. Put some temporary nocks on tonight and tomorrow will get it to short string and then to a low brace. Feling good and will hopefully have it in the mail by the end of the week. My appologise to ****** for being late. Will have some extra with the package as a token.

I was hoping to have been done and shipped by the middle of this week. A couple more coats of tru-oil and she is on the way. Here are a couple of pics. I will post full draw pics and complete specs when it is 100% finished. I do have a question. How do you write the specs between coats of tru-oil? Will it smear if I just add another coat of oil on top of the writing?

Looks good Juan, Glad to see I ain't the only guy using the spring clamps to hold a bow while the finish dries.

If you do a search there have been several post on writing on bows. I can't remember off the top of my head what the best way to do it is.

With all the beautiful bows being posted now I'm actually glad I'm still waiting!  
This is like being a kid before Xmas!

Johan, I am with you. I see bows and say, 'ooh I hope that is mine", and then another comes along that looks just as good. Absolutely tremendous work being put out this year. When I get mine out i hope it holds up to the crowd,

I know what you mean, Iam still on the waiting list , just like Christmas in July.  All the bows are AWSOME.

Im right there with ya both! but....I see these bows and go oh it could be mine then its right-handed.  :(

Great bows everyone!

God Bless.

I'm on the other side of the fence on this Sambo. I owe my guy a bow still. I should've had him one sent 5 times over by now, but efforts were thwarted each time.

This next one should make him pretty happy I hope. Hope he understands why i'm late, and that I AM trying!
