Re: Two bows in the making.
But this one worries me a bit, right at the edge midway up the limb.. Do I scrap it, fill it with glue or just keep on keeping on?

That doesn't look good. Hope it works out

Re: Two bows in the making.
That’s a ugly looking knot. Unless a lot more is coming off and it has a chance of being whittled out when continuing, I’d say by by to it. When centered more in the limb I have drilled out and plugged with dowel and glue. On an edge like this and you will likely lose. I am not familiar with this wood though so just opinion based on wood I have used.

So, down to one bow in the making.
At floor tiller my ash stave gave out, thinking it's down to improper drying.

That's to bad.
Hopefully the second one will turnout better.

Ugh.....too bad.
The element of surprise can never be replaced by persistence.

Ouch. Sorry to see that. Hope next one works out better.
