That's a real beauty Frank! Tiller looks great and those tips are a work of art.

That bow turned out really nice! I like the contrast in the different wood colors. Good tillering as well! ;)

Nice arrangement of colours, nice tiller. I agree to what the other guys said!
It`ll have a good shot in the Eifel mountains, Frank!

it's Buddhist believe that the way, the process is what counts! but hey, doesn't hurt if the outcome is nice, too  ;D ;D ;D
