Hello guys...long time no see.. i havent posted something here on ages..
)..so here it is...yew, flatbow/ 68" long...i decided to go with this design becose the material was not ok for a clasical ELB...the heart of the wood was quite bad...it also has a big knot in the midle of one of the limbs, so, thats why i decided to go with this design...the stave had some pretty bad deflex, but i decided to leave it as it is..pictures now..
You can see here, the amount of deflex...
Overlays are also made from Yew...
Here is that big know that gave me alot of stress..
