Granddaughters bow,w/ handle pics added

Pete, sweet little shooter you made.

Thanks for the handle pics!
I've done similar, sanding the rattan surface will make it take the stain way better.

Thanks again fella's.Frank,your correct,if you sand the rind off you will get a very even dye job.On these ,I pulled the dry rattan through a folded piece of sandpaper one trip,then mixed the dye in the same hot water used to soften the rattan.I like the irregular pattern of color it leaves with scant sanding.It's kind of different.Thanks. God Bless

God bless you and your family, Pete. I am happy for you. That is an awesome bow. I would back off the brace height a bit so that the recurves are actually touching the string. Jawge
