They look great Craig!  I am sure you are going to have a couple of happy guys. 

I agree with the bearpaw glass - I will be using more as well and I really like buying by the inch for little to no waste - thanks Kenny!

On the stabil-kore, I think it is worth putting in the stack in both the hybrid and recurve I built.  No data to support my claim, but I think it does make for a more stable bow.  You do have to like the black stripe you end up with in the limbs though.
Enjoy the hunt!  - Mitch

I’ve been looking for a how-to on laddered riser accent strips.  Is anyone aware of a build along that has this part included?  It’s a beautiful effect, and I want to do it.  Lol.  Thanks for any info.

Maybe it's also called a mosaic?  Here are pics of an example.

Oh, those are cool!  It never occurred to me to look for them like that.  I just assumed those were going all the way through the riser.  You think this is an inlay?  I guess it’s more realistic than gluing those little tiny pieces together.
