I have been informed that this is the place to be for folks who actually make Bow's and other Archery tackle. I have felt like a Duck out of water on the chit-chat site, I have been on. Nice to see all the threads about building Bow's and the civility among posters. I hope I can add to the conversations and learn from them.

[attachment=1,msg2792236][attachment=2,msg2792236]Well I was able to complete my Honey-do's and finally get back to working on this bow. Thought I would include some pictures and maybe get some opinions on tiller and such. Sorry about the crappy pictures, got to figure out a better way to pull and shoot.

Roy from Pa

Looks pretty good.

You posted a thumbnail picture, which is fine.

After you select your picture from your PC or phone, just to the right of the little window where the picture name appears, click ( Insert Attachment 1 ). That will make the picture full size in your post.

Did some more work on the upper limb, think I am getting close. I was shooting for around 45#. It's 48# right now, I hope I can loose a pound or two after sanding it out. [attachment=1][attachment=2]

[attachment=1,msg2793017]I probably should have started a separate thread for this, too late now. I got the handle on this bow shaped out. it's almost ready for some finish.

Well I finally found time to finish this Bow I started back in March. It's a gift for a friend. He had  has never shot a Longbow, until this one. I suckered him into coming over to help glue it up. I did not tell him, it was going to be his Bow. He stopped by one day when I was tillering and I ask if he would like to shoot it. Before he left, he asked me how much a Bow like that would cost, I told him he could sell it and find out. One more convert :thumbsup:[attachment=1][attachment=2][attachment=3]
