We are a couple days into the last bow making workshop of the year. We have been blessed with beautiful August weather. Low humidity and a light breeze have made this workshop very pleasant. Sitting outside the new Ak facility, in the shade of a large oak tree has been a treat. Several neighborhood kids have stopped by to see whats going on.
The workshop has gone quite smooth so far. Everyone is right on schedule and there have been no surprises with bow staves. Bill is working on a hickory stave and Steve is working on an Osage Orange stave. They both have finished finding the growth rings, laying out, and profiling. Now the are in the process of We have already taken the staves to a single growth ring, shaped and are now into the floor tillering process. They may be shootable by Saturday evening.
I will keep you posted as things progress.
