Here is the final pics from the bow.
We had talk about on the PP forum about the full draw pics at distance shot hold. It is a tricky thing but they show the bow out of tiller. Than rotate it and shows the tiller ok. Strange thing....so here is an example for this :)
The bow is in the happy owner's hand.

Fusizoli, the owner of that bow looks very pleased with it.  I am not surprised, it is beautiful!

It's a pity you you don't have access to more osage, you have a way of turning out wonderful work with it.  Thanks for sharing the pictures with us!

Thanks the nice compliment JW

He gave me some billets and few stawes, so if they ready for work than some more will coming :)
This bow is that kind I like to keep it myself, but this kind of things are the best presents!

Here is the rotated (same)  pic from the tiller.

If that wouldn't have made a bow, it still would have been a great walking stick!

very nice work on a very challenging-looking piece of osage.  Tiller looks perfect.  :)
