Had a fire call and training last night so didn't get the new string twisted up. Not happy with the previous one. Will twist it up this afternoon, snap some photo's and put it in the tube. I'm real happy with how this turned out after several failed bows.

Can't wait to see what you've been working on Tony!

Lams cut, making forward progress.

Sounds good Tony. I'll be last man standing soon.

Dave, you know it did not actually happen without pictures.

Hahaha, well I just read your other thread and saw the pictures.

Ok it seems I will need someone to step up and help out. Eagleone has dropped off the planet. I had a PM saying he was about ready to ship back in july and nothing since he has not read any of my PMs. I am concerned something has happened to him but none the less I need a bow for someone.

Shoot me a PM and I will draw names if I get more then one say by Monday. I will shoot the specs out to the winner.

Thanks ahead of time for the help.

Well here you go boys, teasers for those who are still waiting.







First bow I have tillered with the limb timimg method, very happy with it. I feel this is the best bow I have produced and am happy to send it on. It will go in the mail in the morning.

Very nice Tony...

I would throw my name in the hat Kelly but as we can see it has taken me nearly 11 months to do one bow, not sure I would be a good candidate for covering someone else. Thanks to the guys who can step up and offer a bow. I may be late but my guy will always get a bow at the end of the day.

Bummer on eagleone- he was my guy and posted a recite of his bow but never posted any pictures as promised...

Finally shipped. Should arrive by Christmas

Bow goes in the oven on the morning. Practice bow in the oven now.

Swap bow out of the oven. Practice bow is tillered and shooting about 2# heavy. Just needs final sanding, so perfect. Green back with clear over yew belly looks awesome. Will try to find time to take pics. I know no one here believes anything without them. Hosting early turkey dinner tonight, so progress ends here for the day.

Did get down to the shop for a bit after guests left last night and dishes were done. Pulled swap bow out of the form and got it profiled on the bandsaw.

Found the camera batteries in my sock drawer and took a couple of pics. Practice bow on the right, swap on the left:

 

 

Warning: progress will be close to or at zero for the next two weeks, so I hope that ******* can continue his patience streak.

Looking good!

Looks nice, David.

That is amazing! With a 33% chance of it being my bow all I can say is take your time and send it my way when you get her done.

ok tracking a bow in the mail and should be to its new home or getting there .

razorback  The tracking number you sent must have a digit off for its not found in the USPS search.

canopyboy that looks great.

Trux yep that does suck he has been in the swap in the past and was in good standing and even shot me a PM about saying he was almost done and would be shipping soon then nothing.
