Too Many.... beautifully done sir!  I enjoyed your humor throughout the build along as well.  If you keep this bow around, I would love to see pics of it after the patina sets into the heartwood.  Once again, nicely done sir!  Josh

No problem danny, thank ya for looking.  :) Thank ya Steve. How have you been doing out there in middletown by the way? Making any bows? By the way, you wantin to get together this spring and cut some bow wood? I never got around to taking you up on that offer the other year before... Gun Doc, thank you Sir,  :). I have thought sometimes of aging the bow in my yard in the sun for a couple days to a week maybe before applying the finish... but then I slap myself for wantin it to look like yew, aint nothing wrong with some yellow wood,  ;D. lol With my luck some neighbor hood kid would snatch it anyway... haha



"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."
