Snappy little shooter! I would put up more pics but imgur isn't working.  Love the bow though.

Finally got everything ready for the second bow I'm making. Lol  Solid paduk riser with maple limbs with white glass.  Dry fitted last night and ready to glue up. Hoping to glue up this weekend!

Ok.. round two.
Glued up the bow on Tuesday (coff coff sick day  ;)  ) just popped it out of the form last night and cleaned the overflow off.  Riser is solid figured paduk with clear vg maple for the limbs. I ground a .001 taper on the lams. White glass overtop

I get it from OMC Bowyer supplies out of the state's. They got the best selection of colored glass I've come across. It's all Gordons glass too. There website doesn't show it but you can get red from them too.

Sorry guys, have been missing for a long time. Bow is in the works, another hickory backed trilam. Will have the limbs evened up tonight and then have to make some decisions about adding weight. Working with a bow that needed to be lightened up and so will add a new backing to it or belly lams. Have done this before and bow came out real nice. Need to get working on it as I'm currently looking for a new job and a relocation to probably an apartment and will have limited access to my workshop.
