Nice one Paul! I like the laminations on the back of the handle.

Sweet! It didn't look like that when you left last Sunday afternoon. I might have to whack some more of that basswood stump off.

That bow came out real nice Paul.
Looks like the girls are enjoying hanging at the shop with you, good idea with the marshmallows.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.
