Thanks, rps3. Thanks, half eye. I do try to keep the stave the way it is. Thanks, Stick Bender.
Very kind words, busboy and barbo. Thanks, Pat B. I am discovering I am not the only one slowing. Lord willing we have more bows to make.

Very nice George, nice to see your work. Way to get a challenging stave to bend.
