Sorry! ::) You'll have to wait till I get the skins and some finish on for more pictures. This bow turned out pretty well for a sliver of a belly split, it's pretty thin, 52" 40# @28". Here's Moma, this is a stave I got from Marty Horn at MOjam, thanks Marty, she's a beauty.

That one's wicked looking Dano! A set of skins will really set it off. Don't leave it lay or someone will be liable to shoot it.
-
That's cool, Dano.

NICE!!

Thanks guys, I put some canebreak skins on her today. It's a little bit of a challenge to get the skins to run along with the profile of the limbs. But man its so worth it. ;)

I thought you'd like it Pappy. ;D I should be done with this little "sidewinder" this week.

That's a nice 'un Dano. Don't tease us wid the pictures boy. Come with some skin.
-
Geeze!! patience boy!! Maybe tommorow ;D
-
I put some left over canebreaks on and 6 coats of tru-oil. Tiller probably could have been better, the upper limb had a pretty good woop de doo, that kept the limb flat in that area.
