That this is as sweet as I thought it would be!  That bamboo is beautiful!  I definitely need to do one a BBO someday.  I love the black to red overlays on the 2 layer bow!  Great job all around man! 
So you make any of those arrows yet?  :)  Lemme know if your up for lettin some arrows fly on Friday.  I may be able to get away for a bit.  >>>------------>  8)

 Seems like you like this style, another fine looking bow. Gonna have to put this design on my short list and see what it is all about. I will be biting my lip going that skinny on the tips though.

Nice job on that one. I have the materials for a BBO but have yet to tackle it. Headed to OJAM this weekend and I'm sure someone will be doing a tutorial on em so I will be watching.

the tips are sooo slim. Challenges me to make mine narrower as well. Seems like every bow I make they narrower and you have defintley raised the bar there.   Danny

cool bow.... 11 ounces thats extra light for a 50lb bow.. no dead weight in that bow , thats for sure.. how wide is it?  well made
'expansion and compression'.. the secret of life is to balance these two opposing forces.......

thanks bob(rps3)...id sure like to see ya give this a try...it was a progression making my tips this thin...each bow got skinnier and skinnier till i made em to skinny on one and snapped it..lol. now i know exactly how far i can go and still have them be very durable in the hunting field....i can lean on these like a walking staff,chuck em down hill,thrown em across a ragin creek so i can cross it,etc...

thanks for the warning guy...yes i do have these tips down to an exact science...well almost anyways ;)

thanks druid 8)

thanks dragonman...yup..no dead weight in this one. its 1.3"wide working limbs
