2021 Bow Swap Progress Thread - Complete

x2

We would hate to unknowingly ship you a bill.

Same here. I recently sent some game calls to friends of mine that live in the US. I made sure that I marked them as gifts, which they were, so they wouldn't be given extra charges.
On occasion, I have ordered items from sellers in the US and they marked them as samples.

Floor tillered and ready for a heat treat and alignment. The tips are about 1" off center. So it won't take much movement. I'm hoping this one holds up. It's gonna feel super light if it does. I'm betting less than 1 pound with the string and handle wrap all finished out.

I'm excited to see how some of these bows are gonna finish out with all the woods and combinations everyone is playing with!

My vote would be for burl.

Well, I warmed up my shop to just above freezing ( the best my heater can do) and I got a couple of risers sanded. Then I cut up some cherry and osage for core lams. Then things started going south. While trying to get my jointer into position to plane the cherry, a piece of wood fell and bonked me on the back of my head. Then, shortly after, I re-sawed the cherry into a pair of lams and I messed up one of the osage pieces by cutting it on the wrong side. At that point I decided to call it a day.

[Roy from Pa]

Those are both sharp Dan, I like the burl a little more though.
Dave I have days like that too.

Survey will stop this evening.
