Spare ribs

I took Hazel for a spin today with a whale rib bone, dogfish skin & buckskin cord

Bloomin' 'eck Pat - we're used to you showing up from time to time and embarrassing us all with your craft skills, but that's in a different class.

 

[Cobweb]

Wow.
Nuff said.

 

[Gill]

wow indeed , where did you get a kit like that man.

 

[dwardo]

Now thats a posh bow ! beautiful work, really nice.

 

[Ex Member - Sidney Bounty]

I am just amazed with the stuff that shows up on this site!

Thats a beautiful piece of work, where on earth did you get whale bone to work with ?

The detail on the dragons head is really nice, I guess you used either sinew or artificial sinew to hold the dogfish skin on ?

Envious of your skill as usual..

Kindest regards

Stephen

I'll bet Hazel was smouldering in no time with that in your hands. Very nice, beautiful colour in the bone too.

Its going to be a long night trying to construct unused superlatives for that bit o' kit. Mine is "Exquisite". Thank goodness I found this thread Early.

Once again Patrick i looked like this when i saw the bow and was left :tongue-ti :notworthy .

I think the dictionary has the entry for PRIMITIVE, all wrong http://www.thefreedictionary.com/primitive after you see work like this,seeing skills like this are far from PRIMITIVE.

Cheers Stuart.

Now that`s some pretty natty work Patrick

Now why do you have to elevate bush craft to art, Patrick?

Do you have a display / exhibition of your work at your school or somewhere?

I am getting this feeling that I just have to see and handle this stuff in person.

 

[Hedgehog]

Superb work as ever.

I was very impressed to see some of your works at the WG the year before last.

Whalebone is nice to work with isn't it.
