Hi, I was going to suggest Nick Lintern (Norseman) but looks like you already have, has he got back to you yet? I know he is away at the moment.

I do make self bows as well using Aussie timbers or imported timbers and always keen to make something for someone to enjoy.

What style of bow are you after?
