Rich, that is some amazing work.  I really love the feel of those bows but what I admire most about tem is research and tribute behind them.  Excellent stuff!

Rich that is superb work as always.....can't say enough.  I got quite a few good remarks and lots of folks checking out my mollegabet this weekend at the 3d shoot.  They were amazed at how light it was.  One lady was from Denmark and she new the elder futhark as viking.

Hey all. If you have not done so already, check out the Musee McCord Museum website. Their bow collection is fairly large compared to most museums. I found several bows on the site I'd like to make replicas of. Thanks for sharing the bow, but now, thanks even more for the Museum. Thumbs up!
