Finally got this one finished up. It's a sweet shooter. 66" ntn about 2"wide out of the fades except for the knot. ( a little wider there ) Pulls 48 @ 27. All my friends that i've had shoot it really like it.

Here's a few pics of the finished bow.

I didn't catch what you said about how much set you got but I wouldn't worry about it, John. As you develop an eye for tiller you'll learn not to pull the stave further than it takes to expose a problem. The bow looks great. You did well. Jawge

Thanks Jawge, It took about 2 1/2 inches maybe a little more. It shoots nice so that's all that matters to me at the moment  :)
