Beautiful bow all around! How do you tiller a bow with the boo on the belly like that?

Thanks guys! It is almost like fiberglass bows, get the right taper, shape and profile so you need very little work for tillering.

 How did you do the reflexed handle? Is the core shaped and the laminations bent around it, or are all the laminations flexible and the clamping/form dictates the shape?
