If you have a nice piece of scrap that I could whittle into a small arrow shelf for my Hickory longbow you can send it my way! 😆

Never mind, I do have a scrap pile worth a little look through. We are in the process of building our new house and I found a small piece of wood that once filed and sanded fit just fine. I glued it on and am getting ready to put a finish on the bow, then comes the leather for the grip, side plate and a little velcro for the arrow rest. Never give up on the scrap pile whether it’s wood or metal, just keep pawing through it!:D
