My suggestion is to not stress yourself out! thats really what got me last year. i stressed over it way too much and it really brought me down. maybe just like the Newbie build along, we could do a beginner trade too? I dunno tho, just a thought! Have fun guys!!  :BB

Stick to the build along, that is practically a virtual bow building 101 class.  It helps beginners get a lot of feed back and helps the experts remember where they once were :D

I feel that in order to have a trade everyone must have reasonable confidence that their bow will not fret at the very least.  It took me years before I could pull that off, and even so I can easily mess up.

Have you got enough Euro participants to make it work out yet?

Excellent! Thanks! Also, Deerhunter21 will be building a backup bow for the trade but won’t otherwise be participating - so kudos to Russell and Mafort!

Great! Hopefully everyone pulls through on their primary bows. If that’s the case and we have reserves available maybe you guys can get in a second trade - I’m happy to facilitate if that becomes the case, but it’s up to you guys ultimately. Let’s hope that’s the case.
