Dave, I showed her off an awful lot at the Classic. Sorry you didn't get to see her. She'll be ready to shoot by the next Classic.

Well, I did a bit more work on her today. I think she is ready for the first course of sinew. I got her to low brace...

...the string line up pretty good...

...and the tips look pretty good too. She is still braced low for these two pics...

I've pulled her to 20"(60#@20"/ she's a little shy of 80#@26" now) on the tiller tree and exercised her a bunch with each wood removal. I narrowed the tips and did an initial shaping of the handle. I wanted the handle close before adding the sinew. I'll finish shaping the handle and tips after the sinewing and the sinew has time to cure out.
