Title: 60" ziricote and myrtle
Post by: chackworth3 on September 30, 2014, 09:07:00 PM
Just cut this myrtle into veneers and had some extra glass lying around so I just had to see what the myrtle would look like under the glass.  It's 60" and 45@28 with ziricote riser and antler tip overlays

There isn't really a plan for this one online because I drew this design up myself but kennym on here has a 58/60" r/d bow template if he still has them to sell or if you can find anyone with the template.
