    I need some help

    I need someone, who:

    1 - will be willing to relocate
    2 - will learn how to build strings (my way)
    3 - will live & work in my storm cellar
    4 - will work for room & board

    Any takers?

    Rick

    I tried to get my wife to do it,

    BUT

    she does not have the finger/hand coordination to build the strings, and she refuses to live in the cellar.

              If I didn't have a wife and a 2 y/o I would in a heartbeat. Just curious, where's the relocation to?

                LOL, that would be the Abilene area.

                Before this gets out of hand, I need to clarify - I made this post in jest.

                There ain't no money in trad bow string building.

                It'll keep ya busy, it'll provide ya with a little pocket change, it's interesting & fun to do, but you ain't gonna get rich at it.

                    On second thought, when you finally decided to let me come out of the cellar I might emerge looking like that fella from the movie Powder crossed with Moonshiner’s Tickle….YIKES!

                      NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!
                      You need to come on up.
                      Ya never know, but I might accidentally be a positive influence on you. Either that, or I will completely corrupt you beyond all salvation.

                        You look very familiar to me, and I'm not talking about the powder boy.

                          You were the first person I thought of. Perfect match for the job.

                            Rick,

                            My wife is the craftiest person I know. She crotchets, sews, paints ceramics, she even made two great sons. She did a filet crotchet (little itty bitty string, looks like lace when it is done) picture of two deer that is about 4' long for me that hangs above my fireplace.

                            Now I make my own strings but I don't enjoy it. I told her since she enjoys doing all of that work which is so much harder I would set her up making strings that she could sell and or she could just make mine.

                            She would have no part of it and I even let her sleep in the house.
