Kenny,

Those veneers you made are "AH" inspiring.  Might have to try something like that.

Thank you guys! I had fun building it.

You think anybody would bid on one like it for the St Judes auction?

Randy, I've thought of a slimline recurve, but gotta finish up the TD longbow development first.  :)
