That is one good looking tip and string groove. Red core tuff in the stack?

No, there's a strip of black uni-weft. The red you're seeing is paudauk. It's a lot brighter on the edge where it's not under glass.

Ok, I've got it finished up!

I shot it with four coats of urethane and then wet sanded it out with 800 grit followed by 2000 grit paper.  Then, hand rubbed with polishing compound.

I put this phrase on all of my bows. "Duem Benedicite Opus Manus Meae". It means, God bless the work of my hands.
