To bust one out for myself. Got some material from a couple fellow Trad Gangers. Thanks Shawn and Roy. Got a few coats of gloss on just a couple more flat to cut the shine a bit.
B/W Ebony with horn tips.

Enjoy
Cory

Hi Cory!

That's a beautiful bow, great job. I the colours of the wood.

Is it possible to get some data's of the bow?

Greetings, Peter

stunning colors and a great job all round!

That one turned out nice. My first custom bow was a reverse handle style. It was one of Tim Mullins' (Acadian Woods) first bows when he got started. It is still one of my favorites.

Dmaxshawn · « **Reply #17 on:** March 18, 2014, 01:36:00 PM »

The finish looks a whole lot better that way bud. You might should send me that one to try it out.

Trux Turning · « **Reply #18 on:** March 18, 2014, 06:21:00 PM »

Wow that looks nice with the flat finish. What did you use for the thumb rest?

heartlandbowyer · « **Reply #19 on:** March 18, 2014, 06:51:00 PM »

Phenolic for the thumb rest.

She is 50.5 @ 28 52.5 @ my 28.75 draw 60 inch NTN

I really like the finish on this one, I used Buff Hide from the big guy.
3 coats gloss
2 coats satin followed by one coat flat used right at 2oz of finish combined.
