How do they do that?

I am thinking about building my next bow and the possibilty of using dymondwood... but here is my question.  How do they (meaning bowyers whos talent dwarfs my own) tint or dye or stain thier natural colored dymondwood.  If you stain it before the glue up, aren't you going to loose that stain when you are shaping the bow?  I have a Bear Cheyenne that has a cresent-cut riser, the kurf from the cut is filled in with a piece of maple and either side is different colored dymondwood.  So you can't stain before glue up, but how do you keep the stains seperate from limb woods and/or each other?  Does my question make sense?  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

You buy the dymondwood in the color(s) you want.  There's no way to stain it after you get it - it's completely saturated in resins and it tools more like a hard plastic than wood.

As for your other questions, other types of wood (not diamondwood) , you dye/stain them before laminating in the limbs.  They will retain their color under the clear glass.  After shaping the limb, you lose the stain from the edges of the limb, not under the glass.  So you touch up with stain on the edge with a q-tip or brush.
Diamondwood, each layer is stained before it's glued, so each layer is different color.  You buy the color you want, no staining required after shaping the bow.  Many color combos available.
