Excellent! I love the unbraced profile. It's almost the exact inverse of the braced!

That looks really nice. I like the reflex when unbraced.

Super bow.  :)
I'm interested in your sinewing technique. Did you heat the stave into all that reflex before sinewing or did you semi tiller it first then reverse brace and sinew it?
How long did you let the sinew dry?
Oh and what''s the humidity like where you live?

Great job !!!! Looks like a strong contender for the bom  ;)
Is this bow making a sickness? or the cure...

Beautiful Bow!
That's a lot of work to put into a ~35# bow. Were you intending for such a low draw weight?
