Congrats on getting such a looker than Trux.  Not to mention how well it looks like it shoots.  Well done.

Great work Dave! Love the lines of it. What limb angle did you go with? Looks like around 6 or so.

Good eye....6 degrees it is. I usually go 8 on them.

Kenny, those elm lams seem to really drink in the Smooth-On...

I was gonna work on tillering today but i ended up at home depot and decided id rework my tillering tree.  Goodbye pegboard, hello chalkboard.  Also got a neat idea for a cradle.  Will show it off when its done.

I think im gonna sew some leather onto the inside of the strap to make it more grippy  if it doesnt hold onto the handle good enough

eric, might i suggest a couple lag bolts to help hold it to the wall? i tried a setup like that before, worked great for lower weights, but when i was tillering a 85ish# warbow, it sheered the deck screws and things went flying.

great work on all bows so far. i'm still heehawing around with a hickory stave and a yew stave, might go with a glass bow instead though. thinking walnut riser with tan and black phenolic accents, maple lams and brown glass.
