Not me

So is that your maximum effective distance? Two feet?

That's gotta be rough on bows. I would practice out to at least four feet, so the arrow at least leaves the string.

I refurbished my Dad's drawknife, I picked it up in rusty condition out of his shop after his funeral.

Here is the before and after picture. I have a few more coats of tru-oil to put on the handles.

Roy from Pa · July 20, 2018, 10:57:20 AM

Very nice, Eric.

Sorry to hear about Dad.

I put a coat of shellac on the Bocote bow today, I have to say it really brought the grain out. Which brought up a question in my noggin, can Shellac be used as the only finish or does it need something over it?

It's not waterproof..

Eric Krewson · July 20, 2018, 07:24:48 PM

It is OK until you get it out in the weather, shellac isn't waterproof and will turn white when it gets wet.

skeaterbait · July 20, 2018, 09:44:31 PM

Thank you guys, I will plan to spray some layers on it.

Pat B · July 20, 2018, 10:02:56 PM

Shellac makes a good base for other finishes on tropical wood that adversely affect some finishes.
