Unless it was a full time job 100 in under 2 years is  very impressive to me. Well done. 8)

He really cranked them out, Jesse. He also turned arrow shafts. He sent me 6 black walnut shafts and I made arrows with most. Maybe he got a job.  ;D  ...or possibly burned himself out on building bows.  :o

Did you ever build one for the 2012 bow trade?

I was wondering the same a few weeks ago.  Then saw this post and thought he was back in action.  Then noticed the date that the thread was started  ::) Anyhoo, good to hear you are still around Ken.

Hey Ken, It would be better if you told the guy you owed a bow to in the 2012 bow trade why you got one and couldn't send one. ???

Man that's awesome! Congrats on the century mark! I really really like that blueish color on the knotty bow!

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!
