big over due thanks to bjansen - first osage

[chuprinko]

Good guy alert!  I have a long overdue Thank You to Bjansen. This summer I was able to meet Brad and see his amazing bows and his workshop. Being relatively new to making bows it was a great opportunity.   However to due to starting a new job I haven't had any time at all to work on anything or even shoot my traditional bow. Beside giving me advice he also kindly gave me a piece of osage!  Enough for a small bow and the chance to work with this amazing wood. This is the first time in many months I have even had time to look at the forum.
Thanks and I greatly appreciate your generosity. Work is starting to slow down to normal hours and am looking forward to trying my hand on the osage.
Sincerely,
*I wasn't sure if this should go here but it seemed to fit since it was bow-making related. Moderator-please move if needed.

Thanks Neil. Good to hear you are getting to have some time back in the shop soon.

Can't beat an osage bow; that's the good goods.  Post some pictures when she's finished.

Yeah, only managed one ride on the mountain bike.  Maybe this spring.  Cleared off the garage workbench the other night in hopes of working on the bows.
