Very nice work! I sure hope you're gong to post some more pics!

Kviljo:
Will do :)

I braced this bow some days ago and pulled it on the tiller. It made two painful sounds before I calmly de-strung it and hung it on the wall. The relative humidity is down to 35% in my workshop now... :)  I'm in no hurry, and I don't want to risk the nice piece of wood, so it'll have to wait for more humid days. I'll get back to it in the spring.

A good scraper is really priceless when working with yew :)

adb:
 :o I hope there was no damage. That happens here in the winter, as well. The humidity takes a nose dive, and the wood becomes very brittle.

woodstick:
come to oklahoma it is allways up here.
