So.  Mike.  Have you peed lately?  Yeah, water is good.  Always keep a bottle handy, you were so dehydrated in your video that you sounded like you were a little more than tipsy!

And yes, back it -  THEN tiller it.  And of course, always post pics of your progress! 

Now go and have another drink of water, you bushy headed bushcrafter!

That's not the only part of me that's bushy! LOL! >:D

yeah, I'm probably still not as hydrated as I should be but I do feel a lot better.  It's gonna rain for the next few days (suposedly) so I won't be able to work on it.  But the first limb is bending nicely.  Can't wait to finish it and start tillering but I gotta! :-*

I had someone on the Paleoplanet forums ask about the back of the bow, if there were any ring violations.  Considering I wouldn't know what to look for, I thought I'd do a video on the back and let the more experienced bowyers let me know.
