   Hi Alex. Do you know what date you are planing on coming ? I wold like to know if, there are cheep rasps in Okinawa ? If so can you bring one for me ? I'll sort you out with cash when you get here. By the way the Mulberry stave I have for you, I cleared all the sapwood, you'll have to chase the ring. There are a lot of knots in it, but the quality is so, so good the sapwood is even good, it's not white and chalky but yellow and shiny, and the heart wood is very dark, way way better than, what I used before. I have a feeling this will end up being your fastest, favorite wooden bow ever. I have more bows, for your to chose from, to shoot while you are here, so I'm sure the be one that suits you. I just want one thing from you while you stay over, and that is you feel at home, and relaxed. My wife and I are very easy going so, no need to be at attention all the time. Feel free to come and go as you please, and help your self to what ever you need. Hope to see you soon. Craig.

   Hey Craig,
   
   We have different type rasp here. Price maybe 360 NT to 720 NT.
   You can see some we have
   Here
   Though, I have only seen board and shoe rasp once so not sure if still can finding.
   We also have Shinto rasp, 9 or 11 inch version also. I hear good things about it, but don't own one. I plan to buy maybe soon this month. For other rasp, you need choose if you wants flat or half round. Its also more expensive if you buy with handle. Though, if you want, yes, I can bring/send one to you. Btw, Im having some problem to go right now, so not sure if trip is possible this winter, we'll see! If I come, plan to be there from 22 or 23 of December. I will know for sure before November.

   Hi Alex, I don't know what happened to my account, all my history vanished, and posts went to zero ? I've made a few more bows, that I would like you to check out, and test shoot. I think you'll love the mulberry. What type of bow are you planing on building ? I'll make sure there are a few types of wood so you can choose what you want. Anyway take care hope to see you soon.

   Hi Alex, I've been collecting wood, I have hackberry, and mulberry, that will be dry and read, for the winter. You can choose ether, but I would suggest the mulberry, I put an awesome stave aside for you 63'', I found a new supply near my house, and the wood is way better quality, than the mulberry, I used to make, the bows you saw. You don't need to bring a bow with you, you are welcome to use any of mine. If you want. Cheers Craig

   Hello!
   
   I wasnt sure, maybe this different person? hehe
   Well, I must say thank you for your kindness! I may end up using one of your bow as now times not so much free time to create my own~ It seems cool, I like how your bows shoot. I may bring few personal tools of mine, since it is small item and you can see if they are useful to you. The nights are getting colder! We must prepare for winter. Take care, Alex
