White Oak, linen-backed Mollagabet

Parnell:
This bow is going to be 67" long.  I'm starting this thread as I'm sending the bow up to Ohio for my brother-in-law, Sean, and I'd like him to see how the progress goes.  I'll post more pictures and dimensions better as I go...

Here is the start.

El Destructo:
are them just Rays on the edge...in the first Photo...or is that the Grain??

rileyconcrete:
Did you get that from Halfeye?  Looks like a good start.

Parnell:
Heya Destructo, It's a quarter-sawn board and that is the grain runoff.  That's why I was going to back it with cloth.
Do you think that it's still too many runoffs for it to turn out?
These white oak boards I'd been given and it has been giving me problems...
Wonder if I should just hold off with the wood and wait to go and pick up a hickory board or something for his project...
What do you think?
