Very cool bow and story behind it, I'm sure it will have a special place for years to come.  I really like what you did with the handle wrap.  Any details on how you did that?

Sah - weet!
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."

- Tao Te Ching, 77, A new translation by Victor H. Mair

Great job.  Tiller fit and finish all look great.  Touching story too.  That always makes something more special.  I'm sure May would have been thrilled to see such a finely crafted work of art that she was the inspiration for.
