Title: Glass Belly ramp caps
Post by: Kirkll on March 11, 2026, 09:29:54 PM
I had a customer of mine request black glass belly ramp caps on his bow to help give the illusion of a one piece bow. i've never done this before. So here she is with some sanding sealer... what do you think?

Looks amazing!  There's something about taking something as naturally beautiful as wood and making it into something elegantly functional.  What kind of wood is that?
