just so u know wat you making are called board bows (not relly a self bow, but there my fave to make) there has been many many threads about this so i dont want to start a storm (you know who you are), but generally a good rule of thumb is a self bow is made form 1 bit of wood and are unbacked like the old english warbows.......but they had horn nocks...i donno anymore hehe Grats on the lovly bow though let me know how you like that finish.
i mean no rudeness or anything just letting you know.

cheers,
Dave

Lewis dropped in on the weekend to show me how the bow is coming along and I must say he should be very proud of his efforts so far.It was a challenging board to say the least and to get it to his draw length in one piece is to be commended.He seems to have a flair for it and must be listening to the timber to have got it this far on his own.There where some small tillering things to work on but I can see some good bows coming out of Dalby real soon. Keep up the good work mate.
