Here are a couple of pics of my first board bow completed. It's 46#@27" and 66" nock-to-nock. Here is the link, I wasn't able to get the size down to 200KB to post here. http://leatherwall.bowsite.com/tf/lw/thread2.cfm?forum=23&threadid=250577&messages=3&CATEGORY=4

Google microsoft image resizer for resizing the pics. Not a bad looking bow. We need to see a full draw pic, though.

I'll take a full draw picture soon and post it. I have a Mac computer so I'll have to find a photo resizer for it. Thanks.

Great looking first bow!

Be careful, making these bendy stick thingys can be very addicting

Good job

There is no saving him now, he is already hooked.

Looks very nice by the way.
