There's only one problem I see with that bow - NOT ENOUGH PICS.  Please post some more.

Seriously though, I'm not a recurve guy, but that one is absoulutely beautiful!  Well done.

Robert that is so nice. However you will always be on a learning curve. I can see that you will just get better and better. Great job.
God bless you, Steve

Kenny,  the glass fades may be a little stiff so I'm gonna shorten the riser a little and add two 040 pieces of amberboo to riser for long thin fades with a power lam effect. Helen has a 25" draw and don't put a lot of stress on her bows, gonna cut this one 3/16 past center with a nice window cut out for her gap shooting style, theres at least 3/4" of solid glass so I think it's strong enough...  Sixby, I wish I could spend a week watching a real bowyer work. I still have trouble shaping grips.
I'll ask Helen to take some full draw pics of the Bubinga bow tomorrow.
 Gonna try to build another Recurve before sept 17th, Pau fero riser,amberboo tapers, medium brown etimoe veneers or those nice Morado veneers I got from kennym last year.
