Wow Ink, looks great!

[razorback]

Ink if that is coming my way I would be proud to own it. What wood is the riser made from, I may have missed that in an earlier post.

recently I posted about receiving a beautiful take down from David Flanrey in the bow swap. I have tried it out at our club and it shoots fast and flat and very quiet.Very appreciative about the bow, as I was last year with Soy's marvelous creation.  Forgot to get a 'money 'shot again, but decided to knock up a case to protect this bow whenever I use it.This is only a fairly rough job made from scraps in the workshop but will amply do the job.

thanks guys...

re: razor
you know i have broken 3 bows for this year's swap. this is the 4th one.    
i wanted to try my hand on recurved 3 pieced bow and if this was not worked either, i will be shipping the bow on this on the back against the wall...

 

luckly it worked as miracle.

well the limbs are from hornbeam lams.
backed with fiberglass and on the belly, the woods supported by fiberglass reinforced material. (i have invented this i think. this fiberglass layer is compressed with semparoc (http://marinestore.co.uk/Collano_Semparoc_Rapid_V_Adhesive.html) and i glued a camo cotton on belly.

also i have applied a veneer but i do not know what it is. when i saw in the shop i just said " i want those " forget to ask what wood are they    

handle is pine + fiberglass + hornbeam + those veneers.

hope receiver will like it. who knows maybe you or not   :D

I agree with above in that it might be nice to let those who have not received bows yet know they are still being remembered and things are progressing.

[LittleBen]

Also would like to know the status.

Is everyone who still needs to ship in contact?

Hope there's no one who's fallen off the map.

[KellyG]

I will get yall an update this weekend. I will  post who I am tracking have received and who has shipped and who has not.

I will try and get this out sometime this weekend.
Sorry not staying on like I normally do. I am sure all have been on recently. I will look at that also.

[inksoup]

hi friends...
