Woodvault/javaman build

Gregg will be starting my build in the next couple weeks so just thought I'd make a build along post and maybe some of you could post some options you wish you would've done or post some pics maybe. I ordered my veneers from idahocurt yesterday I'll try posting a pic but I've never posted one yet.

Not 100% set on everything yet but thinking 54" 2 piece take down, 50@28. Curt sent Gregg some extra pieces of wood from same tree for the tips and accents. Riser will be phenolic with dark myrtle and beavertail grip

Wow, I really like that wood choice. That's going to look sweet.

Sam McMichael · August 11, 2016, 09:10:00 AM

Elkheart?

Dewey11 · August 11, 2016, 09:21:00 AM

Yes elkheart. Curt went well over my expectations with these veneers. He's the man when it comes to it

August 11, 2016, 09:23:00 AM

Those veneers look awesome! This should be a looker when finished.

I don't wish I'd ordered anything different as I got exactly what I wanted from Greg. Having said that; WOW!

Holy smokes there is a lot going on with those lams, beautiful.

Dave Nash · August 11, 2016, 07:18:00 PM

Magnificent choice.Gonna be a looker

Carpdaddy · August 11, 2016, 07:55:00 PM

Wow; beautiful veneers.

Nice choice. I love an Elkheart. What does his build time run lately. Reason I asked is it seems this bow is a hot item now.

Bladepeek · August 11, 2016, 10:23:00 PM

I waited a year, almost to the day, for mine and when I picked it up he told me he was going full time.

A lot of bowyers get burned out trying to work a full time day job and still put out high quality bows. I was really glad to hear the news. That should bring his wait time WAY down.

Drop him a line and ask what his current delivery times are running.

Dewey11 · August 11, 2016, 10:37:00 PM

No sure on Gregg's wait right now, best to just give him a call. I'm pretty excited about this one

IdahoCurt · August 12, 2016, 05:15:00 PM

Steve,
Thanks so much for including me with your bow build!
I truly enjoy working with you guys in making all these fantastic bows.
Check out my site for new veneers and if you need anything else like riser wood I can help you out.
Thanks

Just got this pic from Gregg of the veneers and accents at his house. Getting pretty excited about this one.
