Hello, Brush Wolf
On your topic A couple in the works, someone ask how you made the inlays on your risers and I didn't see any reply. Is this something you would perfer not to tell anyone or did you reply under a new topic? I think it is real nice and would like to try it on my next build if you would be willing to share your method.
Thanks

Nice build. :cool:
That is something I have to try. I have spent countless hours looking at bows online, never gets tiring.

I think I might have pm them on the topic. But can't say for sure it's been crazy here for a while now. I basically do what Mark said. If you have any problems just shoot me a pm.
