Awesome idea Shane! I love building and love looking at others build pics.
Amazing pickle you made there and that lead mold is for keeps!!

Those are looking good CPU. I’d sure like to see some finished pics.

 

[Ibojoe]

JA, those are nice! Your a brave man! hahahaha!!🤣

 

[Ibojoe]

All dogs and kidding aside...Those are 'proper' forks. I love 'em.

Thanks buddy. I’m working on a system where I can kick some of these out.

Thanks buddy. I’m working on a system where I can kick some of these out.

Do you have one of the real ones?

 

[Ibojoe]

John Jeffery makes the real ones.

 

[Ibojoe]

No I kinda copied his handle but the forks were designed by Island Made.

 

[Ibojoe]

That is exactly the plastic frame Chris wanted me to make out of wood.
I thought it was a Jeffery’s.
Thanks for the info.

 

[Ibojoe]

Working on another one of these flips. Don’t know what to call em. Pretty comfortable though.

for some reason the pics don’t come out in order

 

[Ibojoe]

Darrel you found a gem there. Those are rare as hen’s teeth.
Skarrd did you cut that spaulted oak with a hand saw?

 

[Ibojoe]

Shane you make me wish I shot pickles.

My mom used to read me the Tortoise and the Hare when I was little; slow and steady wins the race.

Now, I'm old and slow even if I wanted to be a jackrabbit

Managed to make a bit of progress today...

Updated pic on the natty recurve, a la [mention]Ibojoe [/mention] getting close to finishing and feels pretty good in the hand.

I may still take a bit more meat off the target side of the forks, get them to angle back a bit more ?
