Here is plan A for my end of the trade.  I'm not sure if it will work out or not.  I got the bark and sapwood removed today.  Tomorrow I'll chase a ring and see what it looks like.  I might have to go to another stave.  There has been some nice work posted so far.  Looks like there are going to be a lot of happy traders.

This is getting good! 

Here are the bows in the works at the moment.  I will see how each turns out and see what fits the recipients specs best. 

Ocean spray, yew, rawhide backed osage, and sinew backed yew. 



That bottom yew bow strikes my fancy ;)

Plan A was a little narrow for what I wanted so I moved on to another stave.  This one was cut in 09 and is a little straighter.  I got the bark and sapwood off of it today and took it down to a single ring for most of the length.  I want to go about 3 rings deeper to get to a thicker one.  If this stave doesn't work out, I'll get one from the straight pile.
