Really cool bow Mike!!  I've never made one of those paddle bows, but looking at your's makes me want to.  Love the bird's eye maple and the art work, looks great!

I'm no expert yet, but to me that is a beautiful bow !!!  Hope to make something that great one day myself.  Where do you get the maple? That has to be some of the prettiest wood there is.  Keep showing, its an inspiration to us beginners.
