Great looking bow. I particularly like the looks of the tip overlays, I am going to try that. I have made 1 crabapple bow from pa and liked it.

When you buy pet store chew hooves ask to look though their box of them. Some are multi coloured and look really nice. They look like opal or agate when they're buffed up. Some have thick enough bottoms and some you have to kind of angle your cut to get a thick enough piece.

Very nice. Seems like good speed to me.  Just cut a huge domestic apple tree myself, beautiful heavy wood.

Another great bow Don! I really love the character of that wood(at least the first one you built) when we go out collecting some wood, maybe we will spy some crab for my collection!
