These are the same bent bows and crests I use in my chairs. They are riven from an oak log, shaved with a drawknife and spokeshave, steam bent and then thoroughly dried. Final spokeshaving, planing, scraping and sanding will still need to be done, along with boring mortices and cutting any tenons. All are bent to match Curtis Buchanan’s plans.
