Gordon, your buildalong was much more than a great bow project.  I for one know I will pay much more attention to detail on my bows, and I have several new ideas I cant wait to try.  The finish process alone was well worth the reading.  The bow is great.  Thanks for taking the time to do the build along.  Justin

Gordon, Thanks for the build along on this bow. it was like watching a child grow up. It would break my heart to give it to someone else. You and J.D.'s bows have been my favorites since I started subsribing to PA in 06. There must be something in our Oregon water, I hope I catch it and become as good as you guys. Joel

Looks like a serious entry for January Self Bow of the Month. And also the January Calendar for 2009!  Many thanks for the great build-along. It had to be a great instructional thread for bowyers at any skill level.

An elegant piece.  I like the dark tips.  I have a hickory one I've been trying to get  a similar look with, went with ebony stain, then black paint.  Leather dye, huh?

Wow Gordon!!  That is one sweet looking weapon!  Your build-a-long is invaluable for a newbee like me; nothing like getting a free education!! 8)  If you do other build-a-longs I'll be looking forward to checking out what other tricks you have up your sleeves.  Thanks again Master! :)  Joe H
