Nice to see you back, Andy.  Hoping for a good recovery for you.

I  have been playing with one of your designs to scale down for kid bows.  Using the 68" hybrid.   If you have any suggestions would love to hear them.

Ben, that is coming along very nicely. I have many questions but I’ll hold them until post swap because the answers could reveal things. All these takedowns floating around here lately are making me anxious to try it.

Seems like this year’s theme has changed to “hack your bow in two”.

But that does look good Ben.

My neighbors are starting to look at me funny. I’ve checked my porch at least 20 times since yesterday morning. Guess it’s not coming this way.

Moving slowly along, shot handle with a sealer coat. What shall I call it, your sanding sins gets visible.

Is that a little hewing axe you have hanging in the background?

And the riser looks good Bue.
