I love snaky bows, looks like you done a fine job on lay out and following the longitudinal grain which is key on a successful snaky bow.  :)

Will B:
Looks great Dave!  I’ve never tried elm yet. Looks like beautiful wood. Good luck with it the rest of the way

PEARL DRUMS:
Dave, I've used and cut a good bit of elm and have found several like that. I don't think its actually snaky grain. I say that because when I split it out it split straight and not snaky. What does the belly grain look like?

Marc St Louis:
Yes not snaky.  It's quite common to see Elm with snaky grain like that in one ring then straight in the next
