Way to see that gnarly piece through.  Looks great.  Love the bend on it. 
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

Thanks guys for the kind words! I have a few more ugly staves that are about dry. I was thinking about bringing one to the Classic to play with. I have been making bows on and off since the mid 90's and still have not ever sat down with someone else and exchanged ideas. A hermit bowyer I guess. I look forward to seeing how some of you guys tackle these staves.
