I had to bring this back up, some kinda purty right here. Nice job again Monte

First time seeing this.  That is an absolutely beautiful bow and the mosaic just tops it perfectly.

Glad you brought this back up two tracks... that is simply beautiful. I don't know who would be more proud; the owner or the creator?

Awesome bow Monte. I was just telling a friend about it last week. Are making one for Portland?

[SteveD]

Wow that's beautiful. Great job

[Colorado Joe]

Great idea. Beautiful detailing
You can purchase mosaic pins through most knife  making supply companies. Drill washer insert pin cut so you can rivet, file, sand then polish.

That's a class act

I love that whole package!  I saw some limb bolt washers similar to that  a while back and always wanted to try that in the brass finger guard on a knife. Those are awesome!!

Drop dead beautiful bow,wow.

[Over&Under]

Wow!  Impressive is not a strong enough word!  I have never seen anything like that before and man to I like it!!!

Is that your own bow design as well?  You are very talented Sir!

Thanks for the kind words guys! I haven't been on this section in a few weeks and was surpised Chuck had brought this back up. Greg I am building A PBS bow for Portland. Missed you at Compton. I've been building limbs for Bear T/D's #1,#2,and #3's. I have also made three pair of lmbs for the Bear 76er. I will get some pictures up soon.

I have not made the mosaic bezels but do make the pins for my knives and have a bow with mosaic index pins coming up. I do like your bezel very much, did you purchase the pins or make them?

[johnis]

just fantastic!!!!

stickmonkey,
The washers do not have pins in them like used in knife handles. They have holes in them that I put the brass shapes in and filled with colored epoxy then machined them. Same process as making a pin like used in a knife handle but not using a tube to do it.

[stickmonkey]

That is what I figured but did not want to steal your thunder as they look great! I make a stars and Masonic patterns and fill them the same way with colored epoxy.
