Amazing work once again. I wish I had the patience to work a piece of osage like that. You are truly a master.

Lots of fun to look at that bow!  Simple and fascinating at the same time.

Did you reflex the bow by heat treating or steaming or is it growth?

Now that is a funky bow! Interesting for sure! It has held a lot of reflex....fine job tillering that one.
Maybe you could round out your string grooves a little more tho....haha

reflex is half natural, half induced with steam. No heat treating on that bow, just heat corrections for string alignment and balance.

I waited for that comment ...
I saw it as I posted the pics. But it is only the string wax, grooves are sanded o. k. 
Reflex: I lost only 1" of reflex during tiller process and shooting in, this is very dense wood, very small early rings and that porous than usual.


Thanx all a lot!

Wow, that thing is spectacular. You've got my vote for bow of the month, hands down!
