Sitting in the airport now waiting to board and go home from a one day trip that'll make for a solid 14 hour day.

My son is putting the finishing touches on his first bow build! Three piece take-down...no matter how hard I tried I could not talk him out of building a 75# beast of a bow. The bow is 62" ntn and fast.

Not counting weekends, I'm planning on 3600. But aiming for 2500 if I can swing it early.

I only have 15,750 more hours to go.  Looked at another way, that's just under a million minutes.  Or 57,000,000 seconds.  tic toc.....

Good news is I will have 662,256,000 seconds of expected life span afterwards  :)

Well, I pretty much retired three years ago.  Not so much by choice but rather as a result of hitting a tree on a snowmobile   :scared:  

I still take on some short term jobs every now and then.  Just finished one last Saturday.  

I could not afford this bow building problem without the bit of extra pocket money.  If this bow building and archery affliction could pay for itself, that would be ideal.

Those are awesome.  Did you do a build-along on how to do ILF limbs?  that would be very interesting to see...
