2017, What did you do today?

[kennym]

Watch it Roy.....

  :D  

I think you guys are looking at Krasus' bow there....

Mike, love that ziricote!

[Pago]

I hope you guys are giving me credit for the bow I reposted above. That belongs to Krasus as Kenny said I just thought it deserved another look!

[Roy from Pa]

I guess it was ok...  

[kennym]

Where is that one you just built Pago? It could use another look too!

Turning the template into a form.  

I used Bondo to tune up the imperfections and didn't care for the results.  Usually I use wood putty and get better results so the minor dips are not completely filled so it's back to the wood putty.
   

   

 

[kennym]

I bought some Bondo spot putty in a tube, that stuff was junk for filling on bow forms. The other in a qt. can with the little tube of hardener is much better stuff!!

[monterey]

I finished it up with the putty.  Bondo is too high tech for me.

Working on a small order for the first off of this form.  I'll get it off to you by Monday.

[Bvas]

Over the past few days, I managed to get limbs profiled and overlays put on the shorty bow.

[kennym]

Man Brad, that LOOKS short, can't wait to see it done!

[Roy from Pa]

Kenny, all those Ohio guys have short ones..

[Bvas]

Maybe so....... but the girls like them.   :p

Got the riser mostly shaped today. Still needs a little work. Hopefully by the end of the week I can get a string on it and see how it bends.

[kennym]

Cool!!

I kinda started myself a TD longbow for this fall....

[breazyears]

got my new delta unisaw home and set up. 52 inch rip capacity...love it.

[Bodork]

I got my bow sprayed today...

[Mad Max]

Just got my lap top back from the computer hospital tonight.
It had a lot of dust inside and was running slow because it was heating up.
Get your computer cleaned!!!!!!!!!
Nice to be back
I got a nice R/D to post this week.

[monterey]

Took one of the grandsons bowfishing.  He got four and i almost got one      

[Roy from Pa]

Worked on another r/d. Had to trap the back and lower the belly facets to get some weight off it. Some dummy forgot to taper the core lams and it came out too heavy.

[scrub-buster]

Today I did a quick test run on a wall paper steamer that I picked up for a few bucks a while back.  It worked great for recurving the tips on an osage bow.  I'm going to build a sturdier steam box for the next one.  The PVC got pretty soft.  After 25 minutes of steam the tips bent very easily.

Nice clint
