Title: Another bow for me
Post by: Crooked Stic on January 24, 2011, 06:34:00 PM
Just cant seem to get enough  :)  I made the riser from Mac ebony with an Ipe I-beam. Stained some curly maple dark brown and added some sheep horn tip overlays. 64 in. 46@26. With hardly any deflex in the riser it is fairly quick to.
