That's a real beauty Frank! Tiller looks great and those tips are a work of art.

That bow turned out really nice! I like the contrast in the different wood colors. Good tillering as well!

Nice arrangement of colours, nice tiller. I agree to what the other guys said!
It`ll have a good shot in the Eifel mountains, Frank!
