Nice bow!  I have a board of canary wood that I bought on a whim and remember being blown away by the wood database figures when i checked later.  Still need to get that glued up.   More pics please...

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

Good looking bow.  Tiller looks perfect.  Where does canary wood grow?  I've never worked with it.
