Oh my goodness. Somehow when the bow comes off the tree and into the hand, it goes from looking like a mechanical thing to a piece of living art. You did an absolutely fine job on this bow. Thats they type of bow that will get the creative juices flowing and make a fella wanna make some shavings.

Dave, your photos come up as “not available in your region”, are they hosted on Flickr or anything?

Ya weird!  I just rechecked them and they are all still working for me on my end.  The photos are hosted by imgur.   The video clips too which are hosted by YouTube are working.  Not sure why you in are seeing that.

Got myself a new bow!

Interesting to see how the tiller changes in the hand instead of on the tree, I think this one’s done now, something to timber for next time!

Finished with cocobolo tip overlays. Bark tanned road kill squirrel skin grip and rabbit fur string silencer. Just one coat of tru oil so far.

Does BL darken in time like Osage?

Thanks Eric. I’ve been contemplating that, but was afraid to gamble it. I want to try the fiberglass sleeve, but will stick with leaving the back ring intact into the sleeve and maybe blend the leather wrap into the wood for looks.

Thank you. I just shot it this morning and put about 50 shots in. It's very snappy! It took a tiny bit of set, basically lost the reflex I induced and sits now at zero follow. I'm giving it a slight heat treatment to dry it out and even the strain a little before finishing it.

I did not leave the top ring intact, a fatal flaw for sure.
