The American system of democracy will prevail until that moment when politicians discover that they can bribe the electorate with their own money

Perfect timing as I am working on my first OSB. I need to take some edge off my drawknife. I like the simple, no power tool approach. Excellent quality and content.  Not seeing the third installment though?

Yea, these are great.  They are good tutorials to send to those who want to know more about bow building without alot of the wordiness that gets in the way.

I'm glad to help new bowyers get started.  Keep watch on the website.  I'll be posting more stuff in the future, and not just bow building.

Thought I'd bring this one back around for anyone who hasn't seen the video series.  The whole series is up, as well as other videos on things like string making, arrow building, etc.

Clay,
Thanks for the videos, I hadn't seen them before. Excellent job! I make bows the old fashioned way as well. Your explanations are spot on right down to the explanation of the sound the draw knife makes on each type of wood. You inspired me to head out to the shop and get going on a bow I roughed out a couple of weeks ago. Again nice job.
Thanks,
Brent
