BC,
Looks good. Can you post a few more pic's of your "workbench," I'm interesting in starting to make a few "Self-bows" myself. I have an elm and hickory log in my barn ready to be worked.
How long did you have to let that osage stave need to drydry??? I have access to a LOAD of osage and was thinking about harvesting a tree and cutting some staves to try. How long do they need to dry for??
Thanks for any info!!!
I bought this stave off of Bill Kaczor. He let em dry for over 1 year. Its really where you live from what I read.
Here's the picture of the bow vise/horse. This is the guys who guided me on this.
