What kind of dye on the bamboo? Heat treated also?
That is one of the nicest bamboo backed bows I've ever seen!

The Finish work is INCREDIBLE and leaves me envious. but I'm curious as to your tiller. Is there a reason you don't have the bow working more towards the fades and that you didn't leave the tips stiff? It just seems that on such a short bow you'd want more of it working. It appears as all the work is being done in the outer limbs. Amazing finish work though like I said.

To my eye, the limbs start working right off the fades and work thru the tips. I really don't like leaving the tips stiff on a selfwood or a composite bow,makes for handshock.
