Updated Pics...New Project and to Trad Gang
« on: August 22, 2013, 02:43:00 PM »
I've been stalking this site for many years now.  I want to thank everyone for the posts and helpful information.  I started building bows and virtually everything I've learned has been from all of you.  Thanks!!!

Here's one of my most recent projects that's almost finished.  When it is finished, I will post more pics.

Riser- bubinga, Birdseye maple, red elm.  Limbs- core is action boo, red cedar under clear glass.  

It's coming along nicely!    [/url] [/IMG]  [/url] [/IMG]  [/url] [/IMG]

Thanks for the great comments.  More to come.  Had a set back with the limb tips and using old glue!  Had to regrind and reglue.  Was hoping to have shot it and put a finish on, but, that will happen in a couple days.  

I'll post new pics of the project then.

That looks awesome.  I like how you have the grip shaped.  Look forward to seeing how it turns out.
