Near done with a bow for Renee ! PICS

[kennym]

Finally caught up the most necessary things, and Renee asked when can I build her another bow. So I started one to keep the peace....    :D    

Pics of the beginnings soon......    

[kennym]

Here is the core and lams, amberboo core, quilted maple (with a bit of curl) that is a bit darker than the usual white.

The dark lam (leftover from veneers)is sprayed with clear for approval rating. She likes it!    

[timbermoose]

  will be watching this one.

Ready for some more pics  

[cunruhshoot]

Glad to see you building a bow! Looking forward to some great pics.

That quilted maple is stunning under clear glass- if you hit it with a little dye it really pops!!

[kennym]

Here is the plan for riser, the 2 maple pcs will be stood up and glued to phenolic...



All stuck together...




May be all I get this weekend, other stuff to do still!

[kennym]

Trux, I thought about dyeing it, but with the riser the same wood, figured I'd hate dyeing it after shaping. Guess I could dye the core all the way out too tho..

It is darker than most maple already, have to think on that!
