Osage Please?

soopernate · November 09, 2011, 10:48:00 PM

I have had my hands on exactly one osage stave and I turned it into a decent bow which went to our own Chisler in the recent bow swap. I sure would like an osage bow of my own. I ordered some bamboo to build a couple BBI's and figured that while I am at it I would like to build myself a BBO. I LOVE THAT SHULZ AMERICAN LONGBOW so I plan on building one similar. Problem is I have no OSAGE lol...Anybody have a 2x2x36 board they would like to part with? Please PM me if you wanna work a deal....

Stiks.

You want an Osage board? PM me

I was on his website but only saw lams. I will have to give him a call tomorrow and see what he can do for me.

Check with Roy, he has a supplier from another site, who he gets his boards from. Can't remember his name off the top of my head. Of course he might not share his info with anyone who gives him any amount of grief, being old and crotchety and all.

I will find some. I have ipe to keep me busy until then too. Roy ya say eh. I think Roy HATES ME...he thinks I am a girly man and probably doesnt even think I could pull back a bow made from wood as dense as osage. I will drop him a PM tonight though...who couldnt use some cash coming in to Christmas I suppose. I am gonna whip on down to our local hardwood supplier too and see if they have any....dont remember seeing anywhen I was down there last time but they sure had some beautiful ebony that I almost bought.

I will not give any Osage info to a girly boy from Montana who drinks Rasberry Beer:) He would prolly just make Osage Coasters for his sissy pants brew:) Big Smooch Nate, and ya got a PM son..

soopernate · November 10, 2011, 10:21:00 PM

Coasters...now THERE is an idea. I do so hate those nasty little beer rings on my fine Pier One imported furniture.

dmikeyj · November 10, 2011, 10:25:00 PM

Too funny...

Roy from Pa · November 10, 2011, 10:32:00 PM

Pier One sells Osage Coasters, least I herd that rumor:)

DVSHUNTER · November 11, 2011, 08:23:00 AM

Lmao!

Roy from Pa · November 11, 2011, 11:06:00 PM

Here is what they look like Miss Rasberry Beer Queen 2011:) LMAO

DVSHUNTER · November 12, 2011, 08:32:00 AM

Who gave you that bow Roy?

soopernate · November 12, 2011, 10:23:00 AM

Thats kinda purty for a little 15 pounder. I bet your grandkids LOVE that bow. Did ya see or get anything? Ifn ya did I will pop open a raspberry twisted tea (wife bought them and I think they are gross but I am saving my raspberry beer for when or if HOVA ever finishes his committment to the bow swap) The one I sent Chisler in your beloved PA is the first Osage I have ever made...it was great wood to work and I cannot wait to coat the garage floor with more of that yellow dust. Now where is the coasters?

Roy from Pa · November 12, 2011, 11:57:00 AM

DVS, don't make me come out there son:)

soopernate · November 13, 2011, 01:02:00 PM

Hey Roy..

Made contact with "the source" and it looks like he may have a couple of osage slats he will sell me. Got the bamboo delivered yesterday while we were in Bozeman for the state Volleyball tournamnet. My son woke up...looked at the wind blowing 45 to 50 with gusts to 75 and said DAD,...lets sleep in and try this afternoon. LOL.

Roy from Pa · November 13, 2011, 01:06:00 PM

LOL
