Sharp looking bow.  I like the power lam in the handle area, never have gotten around to doing one of those.  I've only put them on the belly side of the handle.

You scare me with the amount of work you did on those boo nodes.

Thanks for the comments,

First of all Sorry my English is not the best... but i am still on learning  ;)

I have the nodes slightly grinded, is it a problem?

That's a fine looking BBO bow and your first. I take the nodes down that much on my Bamboo backed bows so it shouldn't be a problem

Great looking bow and cool picture of it bent at different levels in one photo.  Not sure how you did that but it's nice.
