Unable to finish shaping a bow or longbow in Test 02/18/2015 06:33 PM CST
As the title says, I tried to make a longbow and a toy bow and neither project completed. They both got stuck at the stain and attach the bow string phase.

Definitely a bug that trying to use the stain prevents you from then assembling the string and bow.

The correct order to finish the bow is to assemble the string and bow first, then use the stain. That will allow the bow to be completed. Nice catch on that bug, never thought to try to stain then assemble or that it would even break the process.
