That cracks me up, Coaster! You've really got guts, man!!
For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.

I cleaned up the snakeskins, did the finish sanding and sprayed on the first coat of finish.  Borrowing the turkey feather backing approach as my decorative cover to the end of the snakeskin.



Hope to apply the leather handle wrap tomorrow.  If I do it could ship this week.

Wait a minute.   That section of bow limb looks way to straight for one of your bows George.  Are you pullin' a fast one on us  ;D

Nah, that's the straight limb.  The other end is not so much.  I hope my guy is OK with a little gnarliness in the lines as this one is not perfectly straight in any stretch.  I need a crossed fingers emoticon. :)

Nice touch George. Something a little different than the standard silk wrap. Good thinkin' Texan!

I worked a little more on your bow today, got the handle wrap on and another coat of Tru-oil.
A few pics !

This bow is Black Walnut sap wood. Hope you like it  ;D
