Here's my board bow build a long too

I am laughing at myself right now so hard the tears are pouring down my face. 

I ran into a perfect grain pine 1x4 last winter and bought it thinking for giggles I would make a pyramid pine bow and post it with the intent of putting it in the bow of the month competition. 
 
Now here comes a newby and shows me up before I ever so much as put a tool to the wood!!! And pretty respectable tiller, to boot.  Well played, my new friend, well played!  Please continue posting, I look forward to watching your skills grow.

Haha you should still do it. I would love to see what you could do with a pine board. This one was NOT perfect at all. Lots of run offs and really really soft. I didn't realize it was so soft till I tried working an another type of wood and it felt like stone after the pine.

Yeah, but you stole my thunder and really really set the bar pretty high when your bow not only had decent tiller, but survived. 

Think of it as picking a fight with an old guy.  If you win, there is no glory in it.  And if you lose, you look like a wet fart feels!

Aw heck, I will make it.  And it will look like my usual work, pretty middling stuff at best!

Haha just now seeing your post. I can't wait to see it!
