Marty,
I am finishing up a form I've been tinkering with, my first, for some time now.  One picture out of this tutorial set me straight on the placement of the washers.  You don't realize how much time you save all us neophites by putting this up.
Thank you,
Christopher

You guys are more than welcome.  I love sharing this stuff.  I spent a lot of time on this site reading every tutorial that I could before attempting my first.  Just returning the favor.

This one turned out very well!  I hit the 48@28 right on the button.  She is 60" NTN.

This is way to gorgeous!!

needs to be prohibited to have these bows in the USA. Send them to the Netherland, we'll deal with them.

Marty I find it hard to believe that you continually post very descriptive information during each one of your build alongs.  Everytime that you do this you literally give away a bunch of 'trade secrets'.  I am beginning to realize that the method to your madness is in your craftsmanship -- very, very few people could even think about duplicating your work.  

You sir, are a master craftsman.  Thanks for posting.

Marty I have read so many build alongs from you and in every one there is something to learn. Sometimes it's only a small hint or a little jig and sometimes it's something huge. Thank you for let me participate from your knowledge and your experience. Without guys like you I would never have been able to progress that much. I'm sure glad I found this web page.

BTW the bow is just awesome looking ! I bet she's a sweet shooter.

What an unbelievable tutorial. You make it look easy... too easy! It's 12 degrees here in detroit so there won't be any of that going on in the garage till may or so! lol

Love your jigs btw. I certainly can adhere to the "simple is just better sometimes" policy.

Looking forward to the next one should there be one.
