Beginning of the school year and athletics/band/etc. have caused delay in our bow-building saga. Today we had couple hours together.
So . . . . .
Gotta rough out width profile of limbs. Yeah, that's a scrollsaw we are abusing. Some day I may find the $$ and shop space for a bandsaw.

Then Rylie dumped my bin of offcuts on the floor in search of the perfect combo of wood shades for her handle.

Of course, what she picked were species that I no longer have in chunks big enough for handle lams. So next step is a run to local hardwood store.
Hopefully, we'll remember to do an update!
