Coming together nicely. Was given 5 week estimate. Looks like it will be finished in about 3 total weeks.

Is it normal for Dan to take the time to send such "build along" photos.  Never saw that done before.   :saywhat:

No problem. Bow should be finished this week. Hope to get some more photos of it. If not I’ll post the unboxing.

Bow was finished on 24th. No more pics were sent. I should have it in next couple weeks once my check makes it to Dan and the bow gets to me. Pictures to come.

Bow is here. Couple teaser photos. Head over to product review section in the next hour and I’ll have my initial thoughts post up with a lot more photos.

Very nice there Dave! Congrats on a truly magnificent bow!

One question, why didn’t you call it “detective alley”?  :laughing: :laughing:
