Finished the handle wrap today.  Now all the bow needs is a rest and some serving on the string and it's ready to go.  Hopefully it'll ship Monday.  Here are some pics.



Our granddaughter Lillian wanted to help me take pictures.





Hope to get most of the rest of the work done tonight (my wife is doing a class on doing glass mosaic so I'm hiding in the shop).  Need to get a full draw tomorrow and then pack it up.

Yes James, she sure is.

Thanks Josh, but it's headed the other way.  However, we can do a trade sometimes, I'd love one of your bows. :)

I did finish the bow tonight.  Will get a full draw shot tomorrow and box it up.

Well here is my tillering progress from a few days ago.  Bow is shifted a little to one side.

Oh and sorry but here is the brace around 5.5"


I have a slight bit of limb twist mostly due the how the stave was to start with.
She is Hackberry 63" ttt and 61.5" ntn........15/16" wide at handle and 1 1/4" wide leaving handle to fade area.  Slightly rounded belly.  Tips are yet to be narrowed some more.

Looks perfect to me James. :)

Here's the money shot on my trade bow.

EDIT: Changed my mind.  I'll let the recipient post pictures.

Hope he likes it.  Let the packing begin.
