Tim,
When I was bidding on the opportunity to have you build a bow that I could give to someone close to me, I never dreamed it would end up being such an incredible masterpiece. Even when we talked on the phone and discussed the woods, riser design, and other specifications of the bow, I thought it would be very nice, but nothing like how it is turning out. You are blowing me away with your craftsmanship and eye for the aesthetic qualities of the bow, in addition to the performance qualities. My biggest regret is that the bow is far too small for me, so I will need to stay with my original plan of giving it as a gift to a smaller person. I won't say who that person is because he/she might hear about it before the gift has been received.
I have this feeling that I am about to get a bunch of offers from those who have their own ideas about the person who ought to end up with this bow. I don't blame anyone who covets something so special.
Thanks for taking me up on my suggestion to post a sort of build along on the bow. It's nice for me and everyone else to be able to enjoy your talents as you work and to see the bow in various stages of completion. I am eager to see and hold the bow, but take your time and savor the experience. That's exactly what I am doing through this thread.
