Nice indeed.  Very thin limbs - gets dicey tillering when there that thin, no room for error.

Hey Asier, nice looking bow. Like the video. I have only made one Bk Locust bow and I like it. Plan on making some more. I really like the character in the bow.

I like the bow very much your tiller is right on. I also like the UFO in one of the pics it looks like its coming right at you.    Probably thinks you are shooting at it.       Trapper

Very nice bow, I was wondering when you would finish it up, it looks great.

So....you are from where?
