Doug Wicher was supposed to build for MichBowHunter, but due to some personal problems it's become apparent he either isn't going to send one, or just send a stock bow instead. Well in true Pirate fashion, a bunch of folks have stepped up to make the first ever "Traveling Build-Along" to make sure MichBowHunter gets a Swap Bow.
Here is the batting order......
RandyM - making lams
Crooked Stic - making veneers
Brock (BullMtnArchery) - makes & glues up the riser
rwsbow, Howattman, PAarcher - all donated for the glass & riser wood
MOUNTER, Bobmeister, Longbow - all donated for the glass & riser wood
jeffhalfrack, Bill Grenoble, ben - all donated for the glass & riser wood
Kenro / FD / BK / Longbow / Marc - to glue it up.
Kenro / FD / BK / Longbow / Marc- to shape the limbs, apply overlays & cut nocks
Kenro / FD / BK / Longbow / Marc- cuts the shelf & shape the riser
LBR Making Recurve String
VooDoo - Carve Skull & crossbones on riser
KirkLL - finish sands & sprays.
Sulphur - Making 1/2 dozen matching woodies
Dick - Making canvas recurve case
The glue-up shaping is the only thing that worries me.....we're gonna have 4 Cheeseheads together in the dead of a Wisconsin Winter with alcohol and bowsnot......


Seriously...thanks for everyone volunteering to help....21 Pirates collaborating on a bow....this should be fun!
Remember to post pics along the way!! ( I heard Dick is already done with his case
