AK, that looks great. Hope you got Kellys name:)

Got an Osage Slat started tonight. Will be 66 tip to tip.



All glued up in a Z-splice.



And tucked in under the heat lamp for the night. It's 19 degrees here in Pa tonight, heat in the bow shop is set at 50. So the Urac185 will dry just fine.



This BBO bow is heading West to I think it was Clem Cadidl-hopper:)

[4est trekker]

Ah, a Red Skelton fan!  I'm only 31, but he's one of my favorites!  I have a bunch of DVD's with his sketches on them.    

[GREG IN MALAD]

Hey AKmud, is that a sinew cable backing? I hear those are popular up north.

[Stiks-n-Strings]
