Xmas bow
« on: December 22, 2013, 06:26:00 PM »
Latest bow done in time for friend for xmas. Wanted to make it all form Australian timbers but he also liked Zebrano, so added a bit in belly lam splice. Lower section is red Palm, splice is silver ash with Gidgee margins and Zebrano on upper limb.

Great looking bow- that will make a nice present. I really like that red palm and your spliced lams, may have to try that sometime myself.
