You are certainly going to make someones day with that bow. I also like how different people contributed parts for it
+1
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

Every time I see you posting a bow wizard, I know when I click the link I'm going to see a bow with awesome curves, excellent craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail. I really enjoy looking at your work. You are a huge inspiration to me in this bowyering journey. The styles you make and the profiles you use always strike a cord with me. I'd be more than thrilled to be making weapons of that quality one day. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for all the kind words gentlemen. I just got a big piece of PVC to send this in. Is there a better way?

Sweet recurve Goat!!!
"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
