You got reason to be proud Timo.  Beautiful as usual.  Tiller is round as a dollar.  Love the leather work.  Perfect.

We're still getting Spring 3 to 5 days at a time, spits of 60s and 70s, as high as 80, beautiful weather.  But Turkey season opened this morning, and I'm sitting here looking out the window at light rain, going on 6 hours steady w/ ditches running full, wind NE 10-20 and mid 30s.  Lovely.  Think I'll go shopping.  LOL

You boys just keep raisin' the bar.  Makes a man wanna take up knife buildin'.  ;-) 

BTW Timo, I been studyin' steady on that old boy that made those knifes outa edger blades since I saw the thread.  Bein' as I'm genly tightern a drum, I got every old edger blade I ever bought, knowing it was the right thickness and hi carbon steel (they throw star sparks.)  So last night I parted one with a hack saw.  Headed to town to fetch me a bench grinder.  Got a lot of blades w/ a big arbor hole, will make blades perfect for those kinda folding antler knifes Loyd makes.  I'm stoked.  Sorry for the hijack.

Timo, I can see why you ( and the rest of us) "kinda like" that one
That is some pretty wood right there and I love the tip overlays you did
Your bows are always an inspiration

Medicinewheel,this is a different bow than is in the tutorial.

Ahh, that's why i was confused with the skin; it's copperhead in the tutorial, right?

Very fine bow T. I especially like the tiller.

I had one just jump out of the stave a couple years back and had to build another quick just to make sure I had not somehow become good at it. Great to see you back in the bow shop these days. Keep em coming.

Saw the tennis racket handle and heard John Macenroe in the back of my head saying it all about this bow......

"Are you KIDDING ME???????"

Beautiful!
