I have a bow from a swap on another site with hommade green micarta. I believe he used a tight weave linen and a straight press with a firehose set up...Yours Turned out sweet.

Clint, No, I don't. The guy that gave me a bunch of micarta showed me some he had.

I have not seen it. Going to have to get this project started. Seems like every time I get on this forum, you guys come up with another project I want to start. That's what friends are for right.

Looking forward to seeing yours finished Clint!

Clint, did you see the pic of the 3 piece take down bow on TG with the burlap micarta accents. Boy, that stuff looks nice.

Yes I did Pat.  The natural burlap looks good.  I've got some that I want to make for knife scales.

Very cool man. What type of steel are you using? I started getting into making blades but bow making took over besides mow making is ALOT cheaper
