I made that in 2017.
That one is Cocobolo Canary Cocobolo and I still have the Canary Cocobolo Canary riser blank.

Today I ground down the riser on a Black and a White Ebony Longbow I had been waiting to get back to and finish. I still have some work to do. But it's getting closer. First shot 7 ish paces. Feels good. JF

Couple more sneeks. JF

Doing nothing today. Same as yesterday and the day before and the day before that.

Got covid!!    Let me tell you it sucks. I was reluctant to get shots and booster, but very glad I did. Cant imagine how back it would be otherwise.

Leftover wood from my riser and limbs I just cut out. Charcuterie board. Hate letting exotic wood go for scraps. Black Limba, Canary, wenge/bamboo stripes.

Speedy recovery, Buggs.

For a Hillbilly you sure throw some fancy words around.  What n the heck is a "Charcuterie board". 

Somebody I was "training with" called them a cooter board. I laughed my butt off. Came home and told the wife and she said " I ain't eating nothing served on a cooter board!"


Buggs, hope you get well soon! Wife and I both have had both shots and boosters and we sre the only ones we know that have been covid free. I have had 2 coworkers my age die from covid!

Nice serving tray.
Over/underlays for the riser.

Thanks for the well wishes guy's. Fever free today. Although I am afraid I would not yet be able to taste anything served on that beautiful Charcuterie board!

You make some fine looking bows, Mad Max

I guess they are okay. 

Re bagged my target.   This is the third one.

Yes he does!

I blew a tire on my bandsaw right after putting a new blade on. So ordered a pair, gal told me they were supposed to be 31.00, but on the order place ,said 19.00 . I said whatever you need to do, I gotta have em, she says " I guess they are on sale"  LOL   

What a sweetie!!

You must be livin' right Kenny!

Bein nice pays off once in awhile!  Except with Roy...

I've had rubber tires get dry out and get hard, never had a rubber or urethane one break.
You must be cutting a whole lot of material all the time!

New ones are urethane, looks just like original. I saw a LOT on it, have to look when I bought it. Several years old I think.
