Cork and beaver tail handle built - up

Theses are my favorite selfbows .... Simple and very light

That is a cool little bow. Osage is an amazing bow wood. If you flip the tips a bit you might be able to get another few inches of draw length out of it.   Will you post a full draw and unbraced pic?
