The weather has started to warm up a little and spring is just around the corner. I finally feel like I'm making progress on the new place, getting settled into a new work space and ready to start building bows! I had to start from scratch with my work space and basically turn my garage into a place that I can do my work out of until I have the time and funds to build a nice shop in my outbuilding. I had to wire in new lights and add a few outlets to make it functional, I even had to build a new workbench, but it will serve it's purpose and I'm finally able to produce bows from my new home. It's a good thing too because interest has really picked up recently. I'm booked up through July right now and excited to see them come to life. One bow that I'm currently working on will be a really cool 62" Solomon recurve out of Bocote. It will have lots of red accents and will be a beautiful bow once it's finished. Of course I'll keep you updated on it's progress so be sure to follow me on Facebook if you aren't already. I have also finished the form for the Smoky recurve and hope to get one put together soon. I'm really excited to see how it will turn out. There is a lot of work that goes into any bow but developing a new bow is a completely different animal. It starts with an idea, then to a computer design and a template. Building the form is tedious but critical to ensure that every bow gets a good start. Stay tuned for updates on the Smoky as it starts to come together. I won't put it ahead of customer orders but try to fit in work on it when time allows.
