I thought I misread the title when I saw this was a "backed" bow from you. She sure turned out great. Think we will be seeing more of these from you?

I've got ten slats ..... for ten bows?

Wish you had a tillering class I could attend. Everything you make seems to bend perfectly. Nice bow there!

No problem here, you just need to come over the pond Marco



Thank you all Gentlemen!

Nice save.  I love the statics and character with the boo.  Never disappointed by your bows. 
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

Nice Work. I think you just solved a problem  I was wrestling with as well. What to do with those oddball, or not quite desirable staves. Goes to show what can be done with some imagination and perseverance.
