John, I just returned from a short vacation and had to catch up on your build along. That is a nice looking bow. Thanks for the pictures of the handle wrap you used on the bow. I did a handle wrap on my first bow that didn't come out as nice as yours. I picked up a couple tricks from your pictures that I will use on my next bow, that is almost finished.  Randy

That is BEAUTIFUL John.  I have read your webpages over and over through the years and alwasy seem to come away with another idea. Thank you for including the little handle wrap tutorial.  May have to inlude that on the swap bow I am building for ******************!
I humbly follow in the learned footsteps of those who precede me.

As usual John, very nicely done.  Dang, I wish we could get together and build bows again.
