what im up to

#1 Post by ichiban » Mon Sep 13, 2010 5:35 am

hey guys long time no chat, i thought id let every 1 know whats going on with me. its all very exciting, im in the process of buying my first house as a result i have had no time for anything really....lame but the house is nice.
at any rate one thing i do love about the house is the twin car Deeeeeeeep garage so there will be plenty of bows to come and a few performance cars aswell. in fact there are some over grown ash trees between the garage and the fence so much to my dismay i just might have to remove them *wink wink*.
so thats me for the past few months and the next few i think but i will have to build a new work bench, wood drying rack etc etc so ill post those up while i make em.

catch you all on the flip side.

Hi there Dave

Tis always good to get some space to be makin' shavins.

Those Ash trees.....share a photo of them? Not for bows, but other medieval things........
