The old Dark Green Bo-Tuff wanted!!!

[Stickbow Hunter]

This is a long shot I know but I am wanting to make myself a new bow and I have always liked the old dark green Bo-Tuff glass. Would anyone have a couple of strips they would be willing to sell or know of anyone who might?

Thanks

Jeff

Not really mate as I would use the dark green back and front but that thread got me thinking about it. I have always liked the colour as I think it looked very classy when used with Yew or Bamboo.

I already have the raw bamboo lams and the riser partly done. I should be further along with it but family are crook at present so have been busy helping out there. Gotta finish cleaning my neglected workshop up too.

I vaguely remember posting a link to a Stickbow Leatherwall thread where it was being reproduced? Maybe Ben Kleinig was asking? I don't know . Perhaps try there Jeff. Cheers Steve

Thanks for the suggestions fellas. I believe Great Northern do have a green but it doesn't appear to be the real dark green and they do sell it anyway it would seem. I will check out the Northern Mist site.

I was hoping someone in OZ just may have had a couple of pieces lying around.
