Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

Your welcome Jon.  I know the tiller is a little funky.  Little bit of hinging coming out of the fades.  tried to work it out but that was the best I could do.  But I was shooting bulleyes with it too.  I plan to make some more of these. Thanks to James Parker for mentoring me on making them and for his drum sander he traded some buffalo horns for.  It went all the way to Thailand and back to MN with me.  String is 10 strand 450 by the way.  Padded with B50 on the tips.

WAIT!?!?!

Are those overlays or inserts???
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

wedge inserts that look like overlays from the top view.
