Thank you guys for all the kind remarks .. !

very nice bow !! little long aint it  >:D

Guess she is a little long... Ken .... Lol...
I am currious as to your choice of string material. All tha expert craftsmanship and you chose artificial sinew. Why?

It was that or b50.... the artificial sinew looked better. I see no difference in performance. As far as a primitive string....I haven't crossed that bridge yet.. but on my list of things to do.

Well ok, fair enough answer. Though I have to say I always thought a rubberband was as good a string as artifical sinew. Amazed to see one made and work. Would you do me a favor Straightarrow and send me your address? I would like to send you a string for it that you may really like and notice an amazing performance increase in. I would offer a natural string to go with it but they only last about 3-500 shots before needing replaced and I would hate a broken string to hurt your bow.
Anyways, you need to try this string I want to send you and tell me what you think.

Edited to correct a typo.
