got a few shots here of the latest bow i have finished. riser is Hairy Oak/ Black wattle with mosaics of silver Ash/ Red box all aussie woods.The Hairy Oak is prone to flaws and is very hard to get a sizable piece to use. Left some knots in for character.Hit right on desired weight of 45# and its 62'' NTN. Boo core with black wattle belly veneers.
     

Cool bow nice accents on the riser.

Looks great!  That's very cool, unique looking wood.  Nice work    

thanks fellas. some one back here just pointed out you can see a bear's head on the first shot on the upper part[ might need a little imagination!] Apart from the bit of wattle in the riser the rest is different pieces of Hairy Oak, some heartwood and the whiter bits are sap wood.

Very nice, Bob..

Very nice work, no inagination needed, saw it right off myself.  CONGRATS on a job well done.      

Very nice bow

That is a sweet looking bow! Well done.

Roy Roy! Has your recent medical problems softened the grey matter?           thanks fellas for the kind words.

A bona-fide looker!

Bobby Bobby! I know how sensitive you are and do not want to upset your ole timer geezer butt...    XO

Other than that, they weren't all that bad..............

My ole time geezer butt??? I think we are running even on that one!! AND I'm still in one piece give or take a new knee or so.  

I'm pushing 68 here. Only Kenny M is older than me...  

I doubt that!!        

Great looking bow Bob!

Thanks Trux!

Looking good Bob. Bue

You do very nice work, Bob!  Love the mosaic, gotta try it some day.

thanks Bue and Charlie.the mosaics are fairly simple.i just shape up two differing types of wood that contrast into the end dimensions I prefer and as long as 2'. Making them about an inch or so high. these are glued together and then cut to width, say 1 3/4'' They are then glued together in alternate woods and then ripped into into thin strips which are then backed with core tuff glass.
