Have you tried Casuarina, Manny?  I think you've got it there...
Good looking bow.

Great to see you posting Manny.  You're 'rusty' is prettier than my polished any day.  I see you're making em lighter than usual at 45  ;D

Hope you keep at it.  How are the piggies treating you on the islands?

NICE!

God I haven't seen a plam leaf in ...... do they still exist?

Questions:
Guava tree wood?  Self bow?  The dark wood in the riser is heart wood?  Did you leave the snake scales on?  What type of snake was that?

Guava Tree ? .....more precisely Strawberry Guava

Self bow ? ....yes

The dark riser is a combination of leather strips and sawdust with Superglue  ;)

Scales are off the skins, and I belive they are timber rattlers   :) :) :)
