Simon, Holy cow, I need to come and help you dust all those off. Lots of hours massaging that wood. Nice

My friend made me a bow rack for Christmas. I finally got it up and put a couple of my bows on it.

Okay here is my most current line up. The first is my "under the bench" rack, they need LOTS of work. The second is my "experimental" rack, some shoot and some dont yet. The third is my "almost done" rack, they are all bows now and need a tweak or seal up. And the last is my "Cold dead hands" rack......I think we all know what that means.... >:D

Here are some of the ones that are special enough to live in the house.  I have given about that many away in the last year.

I did chase a ring on that bow I didnt chase a thick ring.
The reason it's violated is bc a check showed up so I just draw knifed it off. No big deal.

That's really cool coaster.  I enjoyed rolling through those pics a couple of times.  So many nice bows.  I spotted a bow by Nathan Elliot that I would like to see up close.  Its that dark colored bow in his group.  It looks like it has a carved handle.
