There's something magical about sturgeon skins. They are cosmic.

Thank you. I agree about the shelf. I'm always happy when I can talk people into shooting off their hand.

Thank you. I believe the limbs were about 1.25" or maybe a hair wider out to mid limb.

Very nice work man! I was wondering if you could give me some more information on how you did your handle wrap?
