If you look at the start of the post I am fairly sure this is a good jab in the ribs. One can hope I guess.
Yea I am fairly sure of that.

Cleaned up the first part of plan A. Gotta lay it out and start fitting the sleeve. Glued some quilted maple and English walnut on her. Also my best glue lines! Hopefully plan B works out as well  ;)

So I got plan b layer out. One limb has some twist but it comes out at the tip. It's gonna be a RD style. Slight bend in the handle as it's pretty thin, and I like bendy bows. What yall think? Will that twist be a problem of its mid limb.

Bump.

Remember to check in periodically!

Plan A has been reduced to about the right width all around, going to have to straighten a little, and plan B is the subject of a little build-along ;) ;D

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

Folks looking good. Checking in no real update. I am getting settled in GA so if I don't die from a heatstroke I should start my bow soon.

Nothing to reported this time, hopefully this weekend I'll get a little Shop time to work on my trade bow. I think plan a is going to plan c. I'm not as sure about it as I thought I was. But plan b has been screaming at me to become a bow. Patrick

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

Had to check in on the bowtrade. Have to say the last couple of pages have been quite entertaining  ;D

Patrick, I have to say I am with Paul regarding your injury diagnosis  ;D

Blaflair, I am saving a pic of your shop, to show my ladyfriend when she comments on the messiness of my shop  ;)

Nice bows coming along!
