I got a little more work done last night. I went with a narrow handled d bow, for plan A. I got it chased and rough profile done. It took a while due to all the warty pin knots. It was a good night in the shop. Cold beverage warm fire and the smell of fresh shavings
. I hope my victim likes it.

Way to go Idaho! Looks good to me.
Yes, I agree Grady.
Thanks Dave. So far so good.
I like them bows there Ink
Tis is real cool. Kinda like a big multi bow build along. I think I will get more out of this than just the exchanged bows

Thanks guys. We will see if I can wrangle her into submission. The side profile is a little wonky. I'll post a pic of it later tonight

My bow room is almost like being outside just no wind. Have to put long johns and a jacket on. But the draw knife and all the other hand tools keep you pretty warm.

So my first plan of a simple flat bow is out the window. U guys are making me look bad ;0) so I'm gonna shorten this a little and add some curves. And reflex it more towards the tip and gradually more at the taper like discussed before.
