Thanks for all the kind words I just wanted to make the best bow I could.  It is in a tube and will go to the USPS in the morning.

Thats one beautiful bow Grady!!

Well fellas, looks like I'm going to be about a week late on my trade bow. Circumstances beyond my control, pulled me out of the shop for almost 2 weeks. Long story short, The wife and oldest daughter were in an accident, everybody is ok now, but was quite a scare for all of us, and my wife's car is totaled. Just didn't have time to get in the shop. Will be back at it tomorrow though. Sorry to my victim, I hate being late!!! I'll have to throw in something a little extra to make up for it. ;)

Thanks JW, everybody's ok now, but it was a little chaotic for a minute. Could have been a lot worse.

Thats a bummer Koan! I had one tillered out to 26" 3 weeks ago, and the tip snapped off on me. Broke about 4" down. Never fails, I build bows all year with few problems, then try and make a trade bow, and everything goes wrong. >:(
