Good looking bow, like the artwork too. Did you have to "pike" it because it came in light?  ;D Sorry-couldn't resist.....
Now that was funny.   ;D ;D ;D Justin

That was funny, and even funnier I did have to pike the bow right after starting cause I spoke shaved too deep on one end and got a nasty hinge, I figured pike it and don't worry about it, payed off in the long run.
I appreciate you comments, thanks

That's a great looking bow VB, well done.

Does anyone know if sycamore is any good as a bow wood? It's part of the maple family and we have lots of it in the UK, but I've never heard of it being used for bows.

The teacher will have kids standing in the corner with the apple on their heads if they bring one.  :o :o Justin
