Used some osage for tip overlays.  The tips are pretty chunky right now but I'll narrow then down as I start to tiller.  I need to steam the handle and try to get the tips to line up.

I got the handle steamed and hopefully lined up...thank you Gordon for your infinite wisdom.  I'll let it sit overnight and see how it comes out!

That sassy bow needs to sit overnight.  I was going to use some dry heat to reflex and heat treat both limbs.  Do you think I should do it first thing....or wait till I have it tillered to brace?

I kinda like to do it before I get too deep into tillering.
