Looks like you did a heck of a job on it. Looking forward to more pictures once you have some finish on it.

very nice - I am always amazed at the variety of design variations that are possible with take down risers. I like the way you blended the riser and limbs.

It looks great, I'm thinking of making my own recurve, if it turns out half as nice I'd be happy.

Turned out very nice.

 I know how you feel when I attempt something different which I do for nearly every bow its an experience. Some may ask why not the same..?  I like to experiment if I don't do that how am I going to learn anything doing it myself instead of reading about it.  My last 2 bows I used power lams, turned out good and now I know how to do it properly.  Next bow I will laminate a lam into the tip section.  This way I can glue in more reflex and stiffen up the tips.  Keep building and experimenting this is the only way we grow to be accomplished bowyers.

Look at Fred Bears early bows and his latest ones.
