JD,
might have been covered but I did'nt see it,
is the bottom limb the same length as the top limb or shorter?
Thanks,
Dan

Heck Bob I don't remember the brand of the solvent:) I get it from wally-world...
KC, I make all my bows with even limb length, I think they balance in my hands better.

JD,

Wow! What beautiful work!

It reminds me of a saying one of my past employers used to say to me. When I was in High School I worked at a butcher shop. He would say, "Darryl, I am a meat-cutter and you are a butcher"

JD you are a bowyer and I am a butcher.

Bob Barnes · February 05, 2004, 05:36:00 PM

what is the solvent for and how do you use it?
thanks,
Bob

I believe JD just wiped down the bow with solvent to bring out the highlights for the picture.

why can't you just love me, and accept my stupidity??? :confused: :confused:

Bob Barnes · February 06, 2004, 10:16:00 PM

oh JD...what you said to Todd...

feelin full of P and V as dad used to say.. ? LOL.

I'm still curious about what you use solvent for and how and why you use it...? I always have just used finish over the stain...

Bob

horseapple · February 06, 2004, 10:24:00 PM

your right Bob that was uncalled for, would you please apologize to Todd for me:) Wingnut answered your? in an earlier post... I use the mineral spirits to bring out the look of what the bow we look like when I put the finish on... nothing but a look see into what and how the finish will turn out to be... it dries in a few minutes so it doesn't add moisture...

JD

Todd O. · February 06, 2004, 10:34:00 PM

Joe Don there are a few misspelled words in your last post!!! Better get that ENCYCLOPEDIA you keep next to the computer!!!!!!!!!!!!

:p

horseapple · February 06, 2004, 11:10:00 PM

maybe someone can post this as a picture, this is where I ended:) the form is a modification of Dean Torges, his might be a touch cleaner without all the glue boogers on the base:) web page

Bob Barnes · February 07, 2004, 12:28:00 AM

OK...now I understand...I'm always so careful not to get anything on a bow that I'm about to finish, that I wasn't sure what you were putting on yours...I'm kinda slow, but thanks for the explanation...

Couldn't see the pic in the last post...?
Bob

farmerboy · February 07, 2004, 10:01:00 AM
