[Steppes] Osage harvesting (was Steppes Bowyers Guild)

[jspinks@ix.netcom.com]

That suits me.  I have both plus splitting mauls and a useable adze.  As I
understand it the location is in Quinlan which is easy form me to get to.  I
will survey the archers on Sunday to see who is interested in going.  The
question now is as you ask- what time is good for our host?

Maybe an early Saturday morning bowyers meeting at the
site is in order. To encourage more work a "carry what
you cut" arrangement might be helpful. :)
Seriously plan on alot of work cutting these; the
outside light wood (first 1/3 of the wood) goes fast,
then you start breaking chains deeper in. If you got
axes, bring um. You'll be glad you did. Bring
something cheap to seal the ends on site as well
(glue, polyu, wax, mud, etc) or your pieces will start
cracking within days.
This is rare, good stuff so many thanks to our host
for the offer. Lets talk about times good for said
host and maybe setup a survey of which needs to be
harvested first.
