Default RE: So what is everyone doing lately?

Hey There, I'm new to this forum but everyone seems like good people. This is what I've been up to and please don't think I'm here to sell bows: I sell enough and I'm here just to hang out.

I build a lot of styles of selfbows and sinew backed horsebows but since I've been approached to build English Warbows for a movie I've been heavily into them. Cause I don't share the views of what they looked like with the Brits simply cause their ideas regarding the non yew Warbows have serious engineering problems whenever I join English Warbow or Longbow forums I get kicked out. After all I'm just an American that looks at the engineering of heavy weight bows rather than listening to "experts" who never built a bow. Anyhoo, I've been able to build unbacked and unlaminated bows which I feel would have been viable designs for English Warbows in white woods heavier than 140 pounds.

Welp, that's it. Normally I would be getting nasty emails from the other side of the Atlantic by now. It's good to be home.
