Here's the finished product, folks. Same dimensions, but the draw weight is now exactly #40 @28". The inlaying of the crow feathers with Tite bond III and lacquer added the 4 lbs needed to hit the #40 mark!
I named it Seattle because of all the crows here, and the fact that all the glue and lacquer cloud up when the bow gets cold. It actually creates a pretty cool effect, IMHO. Thanks for all the comments and suggestions in refining this one. I'll be looking to folks for suggestions again on my next build.
Happy hunting, y'all!
