beautiful work. I've always been a fan of yew. The Colour of the sapwood and the heartwood make one another look all the more beautiful due to the contrast. And the Elb is such a simple honest curve. I've been trying to make mine from white woods. I've not built any yet to warweight. only 80lbs was the closest.

This bow though as I said is simply beautiful!

Hi Kamil

Pozdrowienia z Poznania/Greetings from Poznań!

Fantastic looking bow! Quick question if I may: where do you get sufficient quality timber here in PL? My experience with Google and in person in the tartaki (sawmills) has so far not been amazing. I'm looking for good maple, ash, hickory for backs (hardwood for bellies is easier) - and, ultimately, for yew.

Any advice?

Cheers, Alex W
