Pictures are still great for seeing flaws in the tiller, I just don't depend on them for comparing one limb with the other. Flip it over, take another picture. If the same limb still looks weak then it is. Just don't depend on the top/bottom thing. Hope you follow that ;D

I hear you Pat. The weather was awfully wet earlier and I didn't want to work it in the damp.  So its sitting right beside my stave in a nice safe place. Besides I've been caning chair bottoms today. Making bows don't keep the lights on.

Willie I never post other peoples stuff, just a rule I have. However I have a really nice old Lincoln rocker that I plan on doing in the near future. Those require a lil skill and experience ill post a link to that when I get her done. it belongs to me, got it at a yard sale for 20 bucks.

I say proceed with due caution, you are on the right track, sir!

John, that chair caning makes a cool looking handle wrap.
 Also, don't forget to submit this bow for BOM consideration.  :OK
