Awesome camp Roy

I never knew what a camp was either, until I saw a book on Adirondack camps.
We call those primary residence's out here

I broke a bow. 🤬
A while back, I built a pair of sister risers using padauk and zebra wood. One bow turned out a good shooter, but with a funny set, kind of like a gull wing look. Oh well, it shoots well and it's nice looking, so I kept it for myself.
The second one was too heavy, so it sat for a while. Earlier this summer, I ground off the backing and thinned the core. Then I glued on a new backing. It came out good, but then the bow developed a problem with the bamboo on the belly side of one limb, so I ground off the lam and glued on a new one last night.
So, this afternoon I got home from work and went down to get the bow out of the clamps. The glue lines looked good and I trimmed the excess bamboo. I gave the bow a few light bends to see how it felt and I was pleased that it was just the right weight. I bent it a little bit more and one limb folded.
So much for that...
I cut out the riser. It's too nice to throw out.
This is the sister.

wood carver 2 · July 27, 2021, 04:19:49 PM

Cousins, uncles and a bunch of friends too. 😁

Need to spray Thompson water seal on a 12' x 20' shed/building.
Went out there Yesterday at 6:00PM and sprayed 2 side and was soaking wet 90* and with humidity feel like temp. was 102*.

Now I have to spray the other 2 sides

Not fun

Pat B · July 28, 2021, 10:08:54 AM

It was 64deg here this morning but taking our daily walk and come home dripping because of the humidity. That's why this is my least favorite time of year and why I don't live near the coast anymore.
Today I turn 71. Not quite as old as Roy but I guess I never will be.

Flem · July 28, 2021, 10:38:55 AM

As nasty as that humidity sounds, especially to a shriveled up mummy like me, I would take it over this:

Thats our air quality

Mad Max · July 28, 2021, 11:03:24 AM

Happy birthday Pat

Roy from Pa · July 28, 2021, 11:28:00 AM

Happy Birthday Young Man..

Damn Flem that is nasty.

Flem · July 28, 2021, 11:32:27 AM

Happy Birthday Pat! Hope you dry out and have a great day

Sorry I did not notice before, I was too busy feeling sorry for myself

Bob D · July 28, 2021, 03:36:21 PM

I feel for ya Flem. Smoke from western fires came all the way to Vermont the last few days. Here the air looked just like your pic.
You could see the smoke moving across the continent in a NOAA satellite clip.

Flem · July 28, 2021, 03:58:15 PM

Sorry to hear that Bob. Hard to believe you are getting smoked out thousands of miles away!
We have been in the Unhealthy category for 3days now. Yesterday it was Very Unhealthy and it makes you feel like crap real fast breathing that stuff.
