Well Justin, people come here to bounteously share their knowledge; very much seems as if you came here just to wet peoples' mouth, rather fish for compliments than share, making your little trick look like a great special, or a BIIIIIIG secret. No need to be surprised about peoples' reactions if you come across like that.
For me, I very much like your bow, but I don't give a darn for that backing (I'm kinda sure I could receive something similar, using a shed skin as a matrix)
Cheers, Frank
