Muskyman:
Finally got this bow finished up. Turned out okay, for me :)
It’s 42 lbs @ 30 inch draw
75 3/4 tip 2 tip
AMO is 71 1/4
Mother of pearl strike plate and a jute handle and cow horn tips
Bottom limb is 1 inch shorter than the top

Just as a side note the last picture is the mother of pearl I got from way fair as a sample for tile backsplash. 2mm thick and cost me $6.37 with free shipping. Much cheaper than anything I could find anywhere else online.

ajooter:
That cane out great!  Did you have a pic of the inlay?  Good to know on the mother of pearl.  I would love to try some.

Muskyman:
I do jooter. I’ll post a picture tomorrow. It’s just a small rectangle. I had seen photos similar to the one I did. I had thought about ordering some leather strips for the handle but decided I’d just use jute twine. It makes a good handle and I had some in my shop so, no waiting for delivery.

Marc St Louis:
Looks good.  The center is a bit too stiff to be considered an ELB.
