actually started this one two weeks ago. before i began the kids bow. now working on the simultaneously. it has a macassar ebony and zebrawood riser. with wenge veneers under clear glass.

in this pic i want you to notice all the beautiful grains in the wenge under the glass cant you see it ? it is just wonderful.

Damn eman, thats a beauty. Fantastic job ! I bet the riser will look awesome with the finish on. The limbs look nice to. Have you already shoot her ?

thanks guys. i was being sarcastic about how the limbs looked. they did look beautiful when i got them, and they were still beautiful when i was gluing it up, but once the glue cured, they were almost black. you can see the grains but you really have to look for them.

andy i have shot it, and its quite nice if i don't say so myself. iwill have an unbiased opinion after this weekend, so i'll let you know what he thinks.

Yeah!  Love that dark wood under clear glass!  Great riser shape!  Awesome job.

Hey Eric, have you got any finish on her yet?  It looks great.
Stay sharp, Kenny.

guess i should of wrote something instead of just bringing it up. this one is almost done. i have gotten all the rasp marks out of the riser. that was a bit more of a chore than usual. the ebony is extremely hard, and it takes a lot of sanding to get the gouges left by the rasp out. the limbs are tillered, and the tips are mostly done. i should be able to get a finish on it this weekend.
