Sweet!  That's an exceptional bow.  I just like looking at it.  How wide is it at the handle?
Florida to Kwajalein to Turkey and back in Florida again.  Good to be home but man was that an adventure!

Wow, that came out really nice.  You don't look like you are anywhere near Sandpoint but I happen to be hiking around the ski resort there and the MM was everywhere.

Thanks Steve, no I'm nowhere near Sandpoint I'm about ten hours south.  But it's here too in the desert.

That's about as perfect of a D bow tiller as I've seen.  Beautiful.

I really like the contrast between dark and the white maple. I've seen some awesome bows on this forum, but am always drawn to a simple bow. In this case, simple = outstanding! Love the look, great job.  Dave Mc
