great thread, awesome bow, wonderful story!

The name of the bow???  For some reason I want to call it #45 or something about it's age.  There seems to be a connection between the 2 of you.

Great looking bow, but those skins look like canebreaks or timber rattlers to me, not copperheads.

When you put the snakeskin on, after gluing it and letting it dry, do you remove the scales before applying the superglue?
