All I can say is "Well its a start".My trade bow is going to be a bamboo backed hockory with a Yew core(Thanks to Idahocurt).So far the hickory is cut and tapered,the bamboo is planed(this bamboo has ben in my heated basement for a year. I then put it in the dry box for 3 days at 110deg.I made a templet out of 1/8 underlayment that I may or may not use.I plan on using URAC185 glue and shrink wrap for clamps.Ive got the blocks cut to reflex the tips.Im currently waiting for a used toothing plane to arrive in the mail.Thats it so far.This is my first try at anything other than a self bow.Any advice or tips is greatly appriciated.Thanks,Scott (http://i643.photobucket.com/albums/uu154/618scottm/3.jpg)

Looks like a pretty good start to me.
:thumbsup:
Vanillabear thanks for the tip
Looks like a good bow in the making to me. I was lucky enough to get one of Scotts bows in last years bow swap. If this one is even close to mine someone will be very pleased.
