I just saw pictures of a beautiful forward-riser ASL. Maybe Overspined will stop by with a pic.

I'm doing some spring cleaning today. I know it's a bit silly, but I ended up framing the shipping label and thank you note I received from John Schulz for purchasing "Hitting 'em Like Howard Hill."

I like it

I don't think it's silly at all. A great keepsake for your collection. I have a signed note from JS framed with his picture.
I hope you didn't scriibble your address out for the post. You could have covered it with white paper for the pic.

silly Or not it's still cool to see and have.

The photo was altered digitally. No worries, the original is safe.

That will be sweet Rob! I've been thinking about making myself a smaller quiver.

i've been finding smaller is a bit better for me, easier to maneuver, and there's still enuf arrows in the sack to down a small elephant if need be, but not enuf to take to the battle at agincourt.

Nice job Evan & Rob.
I made another new one.

Ha man this is just my favorite longbow design, the forward handle/reverse handles are just hard to beat.

Anyone who makes leather goods and quivers understands why they cost so much. They're just a major time investment no matter how fast you can lace.

Grrrrrr.....I have a serious distaste for computers that "spell check" for you and screw up your own friggin' handle.

Hey Overspined, I like that quiver you made me!

I would much rather have some Homebru appear on my doorstep then some hombre.

Also, that's a beautiful bow you have there Overspined. I do love a good forward handle. They are a pleasure to shoot.

Speaking of shooting, I was lucky enough to sneak out tonight for some roving. It certainly cleared my troubled mind.

I have a bow build coming up soon. I was thinking about a dark Bubinga riser with bamboo cores under clear glass. Is clear glass a bad choice?

Tim Reese · May 26, 2020, 05:54:30 PM

Sounds good to me. ^

Cookus · May 27, 2020, 08:00:55 PM

These days the clear glass has been pretty good (IMHO) and I personally like to see wood grain... Just my humble opinion though. If I was hunting the bow I'd have the bamboo "caramelized" though... Bamboo is so danged light! Just my opinion again and please do what for works best for you Tradcat. Enjoy that new bow and please post pics when you get it so that all of us can enjoy
