  Great job Bill.  That tiller looks excellent to me.  Your finishing work is always awesome.

Our internet, for some reason, has been verrry slow today. So did my 1st reply not knowing that all your pics had not yet loaded. Hope to see ya shootin' that one in less than 2 months!

Oh, and thanks for the finishing details.

Not too shabby big guy! Making a hackberry bow long, like you did, is the ticket to holding a nice shape.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

Tiller looks great to me. I really like the stain job with the paint outline.  Leather grip looks awesome too! Well done

Mighty nice offer....I'm sure everyone would appreciate it,  I'll be glad to swing a maul and split some hackberry.
Thanks
