Thank you all for the nice comments. This one almost defeated me. I've had bows break before and don't count that as a defeat. This one just didn't want to be a bow. And it might still keep bending and twisting. Only time will tell. I wish I could take better pictures, the wood grain and colour didn't show at all in my pictures.

You should really mail that to me so I can fully appreciate the grain and colour in person  :D

Impressive work, D.C.! Looks like you wrangled that crazy stave into a nice character bow!!

Way to stick with it DC, I'm a sucker for the curves to. I also like a well built Rat Rod.

You just demonstrated what for me is the most interesting part of all this.  Nicely done!
