wow! Amazing work.... I've never seen detail like this go into a build. How many hours do you have into this project?

awesome build looking forward to the conclusion to this one!  

Curious what you're using to sand your lams/feature strips.

Very beautiful work.  Thank you for taking the time to take us along.

Nyarrow  there is probably about 16hr of glue time. There is about another 10hr so far in the riser.

Here are a couple new pics. I had planned to have this build finish by now. Something came up and had to put it on the back burner for awhile.

The core is red elm with Claro walnut wedges.

 


Curly Koa veneers.
 

Wow those veneers are going to look nice!

That is going to be a very beautiful bow!

Thanks guys.  I hope it looks as good as I have pictured.

those veneers look tremendous before they're under glass even....that's going to really pop!!!!

Wow!!! Cant wait to see it done.    

A beautiful work, brushwolf!

Ttt

Mike thats going to be a another sharp looker.  I sure am glad I've already got one of yours.  Stunning bows Bud

Thanks Shawn.

I use a sled to taper my wedges. Once I sand the wedge to thickness it gets tapered.

The power wedge.



The wedge.



The wedge and power wedge put together.

I am going to shoot for about 58# on this one. The red elm core is all ground. I will try and post some more pics in the next few days.

Cool your spacer to taper the wedges/get a slope looks same as mine   :D
(But my riser don`t look the same unfortunatly....)

That is some truly outstanding work! Good job and thanks for taking us along. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished project.

This needs to come back up.  Brushwolf, have you finished this bow?

This thread was the inspiration for me to figure out how to do a flared riser.  thanks a million!
