Ok, gonna build another. Not doing the buildalong this time but I'll take some pics as it progresses. This will be another new pattern. It's going to be a 58" 55#@29" Takedown recurve. It will have Bocote and Wenge riser and Bocote Limbs.

I'm getting my Lams from KennyM, great guy to deal with and he has some excellent products.

I'll try and get a pic up tonight.

Here is the first pic. I will be stalled here for a while until some parts come in the mail. The wood colors look pretty good.
