Thanks for the comments guys. Sorry I havent posted any full draw pix or similar yet, but I'm working all the hours that the big guy upstairs gives right now. I'm posting this from a customer's office 8). Hopefully there will be some time this weekend to take a few drawn pictures and post them up. The bow shoots fast, and doesnt 'ring' like some other recurves, especially those made out of 'the other material that need not be mentioned here'...Having said that it isnt the quietest bow I've made, but I'm pretty happy with it for the seventh or eighth bow I've made. I've still to really experiment with the brace height too, but it seems OK at the moment.

Hi All,
Here are the final pictures. Full draw and the handle finish, which was best done with a fine black leather lace. Met up with Stan yesterday and shot around some. The bow is light in the hand, very quick and comfortable, around 52@28". The bow is 64" NTN, and and inch and 5/8ths wide immediately at the flares, tapering for the last 12" to 1/2" tips. Thanks for all the inspiration guys!
