How the heck I missed this fine bow from Dave, I'll never know.  I wasn't even in goof-off mode when he posted it.  Got your ash bow bookmarked for August Self BOM, now though, Dave.  Thanks for the heads up.
A reminder, folks, if you don't see something like "got your bow bookmarked" its a good bet I missed it.

That's a lovely piece of wood, and what a beautiful simple bow!

Well done!

That really is a good looking bow, and I'm really impressed that such a challenging bow turned out so well from ash. I've attempted two and they both were mediocre.

Thanks again.  I took my time with this one, hatcheted out the stave when there was still snow on the ground.
