I'm working on a couple of different bows at the moment, with the intention of sending out the best one.

Top outer limb needs to bend more. What's the front profile look like?

 8) I like that bow!!!! Could you take another shot gripping the bow 1/2" to 1" higher. I think that is one sweet little bow.
I found many years ago that it is much easier and more rewarding working with those that don't know anything than those that know it all.

That's a good looking bow, your getting a lot of bend out of it.

Just sent it off! It's headed to the left of my current position >:D

I took some pics of the finished bow but I'd rather my victim post theirs.

Might as well make them short, save some wood to keep warm.

Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.
