Brazilian Ebony riser with Canarywood stripes and stained Bamboo limb cores. Gotta finish up the limb tips and final sand. Very pleased with how smooth it draws. I’ll post finished pics and a full draw pic when it’s done.

No on the Bamboo flooring. I stained my boo cores.

I used some Cane veneers one time, a little dark stain on the nodes, it came out nice.

That looks very nice. I really like the bend at brace, looking forward to an unbraced and full draw pic.

That riser looks light for Ebony?

Did a search for "Brazilian Ebony" This is what came up;

Guess I should have included the term "Wood"

Gombiera Ebony. It darkens quickly over time.

Beautiful bow, I'm working on a 58" 1 piece too. I think that's a good size for hunting and all around use.

Very nice, clean looking shooter, JR!
One of my favorite style hunting bows!

nice job!

I sprayed several coats on Saturday, wet sanded Sunday morning and applied several more coats. I must say, I’m pleasantly surprised at how nice this wood looks with finish. One more round of sanding and a couple coats to go.

You sprayed several coats of what kinda clear? JF

JGR1269 · « **Reply #17 on:** August 02, 2021, 07:28:58 AM »

Right now I’m using Duplicolor Wheel Clearcoat. The final coats will be catalyzed matte 2K clear.

Jeff Freeman · « **Reply #18 on:** August 02, 2021, 07:30:11 AM »

Have you done this way before? JF

For 23 years.
