Another R/D...
« on: July 27, 2009, 12:48:26 am »
Here's a maple backed maple R/D bow I just finished.  It's around 48 lbs, 63 " ntn, with a tempered belly.  Brown stain over red alcohol stain.  That's about it.
Hope the pics turned out ok; I'm on a tiny screen and can't really see them well...

Great looking bow, great tiller, nice detail work and finish. Are the nocks cut across the back, or do you have overlays on it?
