That bow has a radiused belly? 
It does, yes.
Absolutely beautiful bow! Did you heat the black locust and bamboo with dry heat separately on a form prior to glue-up? Also, what type of glue do you recommend on these bamboo-backed bows? Thanks for sharing your work here. I can’t quit looking at this bow.
Thank you Will! And yes, that's exactly how I did it. I use EA-40 epoxy. I've tried titebond III which is fine, but It won't hold the reflex as well.
Very nice bow. I've made a few Bamboo backed BL bows and not one chrysaled
Thanks Marc. I really like the combination of heat treated BL & bamboo. Do you think it differs much from an osage-bamboo combo?
cool TD (as well as the awesome bow)...how is it made?
Thanks Bob. I found fitting brass tubes and hammered them in shape! A lot of work, but worth it imo.
Not bad 
Could you show a picture of the lower limbs sleeve and how it marries with the limb, from the back.
Haha thanks
This is the best I've got right now. The tubes are over the bamboo. I didn't cut in the bamboo to get the tube flush with the backing's surface. Does that answer your question?
