[hicklife1989]

hello finally started first bow got handle glued to back putting pics up for advice if yall think it looks like it goin in right direction goin to start rough out the handle to get it angled to start the floor tiller heres what i got so far

I think the handle is 'supposed' to be glued to the belly, not the back. Your pics are also very small and hard to see, I recommend using imgur as described on this thread http://www.primitivearcher.com/smf/index.php/topic,56806.15.html

Handle is glued to belly

if thats a board,, you can probably go as is,, most boards can have either side be the back,, at least your starting,,

hopefully doing it right the board up front is just to make sure i did not dent the wood when i clamped it together goin to rough out handle tommorrow get it ready for floor tiller till i can get a string for the tillering process got to make a tiller stick

Keep on truckin', but remember - Patience, Grasshopper! .!  Best of good work!  You can take wood off, but it is extremely difficult to put it back on!  And watch your tiller very closely!  Btw, I'm a newbie, the other guys know a bunch more than I do!
