That's 4 months-ish I'm ok with that, exactly the motivation I need. Ha ok well then anyone that considers themselves new can do it we won't put a bow number on it

I also agree we should start a thread for everyone to post their progress.

should I use the bow I'm making now? or should I do another one for the group build along?
Why must we make simple things so complicated?

A single thread for all of the competitors is good by me, might get a little confusing though.  I don't know about all selfbows, someone may run into trouble and need to add a backing.  Fox, use whatever bow you want, I'll be using the smaller stave from my white ash thread.
