Thanks for the Inspiration
« on: June 25, 2020, 08:31:09 PM »
I've been lurking on this board a lot and never felt worthy of adding my two cents, my own assessment, not any of yours.

After reading your bow swap thread, I got inspired to finish something I started a long time ago. Like 8 years, I think.

Let me just say the knowledge on this site is second to none. Since 2006 I've been a member here and have gleaned a lot of information from some very good folks.

Most of the tips used to build this particular bow came from Roy. Thank your Sir.


Tiller is not perfect, but very close.

Specs are: 58" NTN  48# @28

Bamboo backed Osage.

Glued up scraps of Cocabolo for the handle. Some of the same along with Boo and Glass for the tips.

Nice!! 

All who come here are welcome.   Not just a rule,  but an observable fact.

Roy?  He seems to be all right.  :)
