That's a nice looking pattern on that skin.  I'll be looking forward to some picture of it finished up and bending.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

Here's one toward the end of tillering.  I did some minor adjustments after shooting a bit.  Bottom limb (on left) is about 1/4" stiffer.  Not a perfect tiller, but I get a little better each time. :D
