New bow (viburnum tinus)

[dantolin]

Hi everybody!
It has been a long long time since I don't post a bow, and also a  little time since I don't make one (I had to dismantle my little workshop time ago, and it's not easy for me to find a place and the time for bowmaking...thanks to Nacho for sharing his workshop and friendship).
It comes from a very long time stored viburnum tinus branch that had a dog leg on the upper limb and that I heated and corrected it (only on this spot). It had a little pin arising just there and it developed a little crack that I thought that would not allow me to make a bow out of it, but it handled it very well.
It is 65" nock to nock, and 39# at my 26".
It had some little natural (except for that dog leg) reflex deflex design on it, with 1"1/4 of initial deflex, that didn't go farther.
Finished this time with oil based finish. Lightly waxed on the last coat. Linen string. Epoxi colored with sand and ash arrowpass. Leather handle tribute to John Strunk.
20.5#@16"   24.5#@18"    28#@20"    32#"@22"    36#@24"    39#@26"
Thanks for watching
