Rod very nice work all round mate. Gotta love that conkerberry makes all other timbers stand out as well as the colour it producers by itself. Am jealous of the arrows as well some valuable time spent on them by the looks of it. The grind on the knife looks the goods and is always good to see wood in the scales instead of the G-10 mate. Hope Rob gets the time to enjoy it all.
P.S Looks like you finally got that coating process all worked out hey.
Cheers Wayno talk soon.

Thank you for your kind words gentlemen. I do have to make a lighter set of limbs, Robyn could only get these ones back to about 18-20 inches of draw length.
Cheers... Rod

The new limbs on the tiller tree for the first time. Draw weight is 27#@28" but still needs finish sanding, so they can be made lighter yet.

I have finally taken some snaps of the new limbs finished. It ended up 27#@28" and Robyn will probably draw it to 25#@26". I hope it is not still too heavy, but if it is I'll make a third set of lighter very basic limbs for her to build some strength and technique.
Cheers, Rod
