i decided to repair and refinish my indian archery flatbow.click on the pic to go to my photo bucket. i have 3 albums with before and after pics as well as the bow with the handle off.you can see in one photo, the bow is two pieces joined with a "z" splice. the handle is dowel pinned on. handle also was stamped with "55" and also penciled with that number. if you can't access all 3 albums, let me know and i'll fix it. looks like maple, would you agree?.
