Hi Guys!

Well, first of all, thank you all for helping me finishing the tiller of this bow.
Its basicly finished and I have some pictures for you (I`d like to hear you opinion). Sorry about the poor quality of some of them.

Braced (I actually replaced the string so now it`s braced higher then in the picture):

Full draw (26" in my case):

Now all I need to do is shoot it about a 150 arrows, and if it holds, I want to paint and decorate the back (it`s brown paper backing)
and finish it.
