The bow will be 62" and somewhere in the high 50s low 60 range.  I haven't decided yet.

The limbs are just around the corner. First I'm going to do a little more on the riser.

Cutting the site window.

Starting out the sander helped remove wood. The rasp helps get the detail in the grip I want.

Sneek peek at the curly koa board for limb veneers.


   

The dark spot has some ca on it to see what it looked like.

Can you get enough veneer material out of such a thin piece?
