Every time I see a new one of your bows posted I get a little excited right before I click to look.  Always a treat.

Nice one Gordon.  I have a bamboo backed lemonwood I made a year or so ago and love it.  I was actually just thinking of making it into a take down so I could take it with me to the states easier.

Looks like you might have this bow building thing sorted ;) Just out of interest do you buff up the brass collar? It looks quite polished........A word that sums up your bows nicely!!!!

I'm speechless, Gordon. Love the contrasting colors. The ipe really sets the whole thing off. Another fine job!! :P

Perfect as usual Gordon. I love your work.

Good to see this one finished up, now you can get to work on that trade bow for me  >:D ;)   Outdone yourself again Gordon.  Very Nice.

No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso
