It looks like you took the crown off of the the knot in 2nd pic. I always add a drop of super glue on knots just for insurance.

You done good :)
But you should measure the width of the knot and add that onto the width of the limb there. This will keep strain levels where they should be.

Okay thanks bownarra... i followed the grain around the knot, is that what you mean? Or should i add more width there? I have extra width right now so i can leave that bigger if i need to.
