I am on a project. It keeps calling me back. I have the two best mentors. I am building a pre 1942 more like a 1930's Howard Hill bow. I am building it the hard way and I can see now the only way. Rooty

Haa Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!! Jerry told me about your project. I told him, that I hope you're fully retired now, because you are going to need the time for that bow build. Can hardly wait to see, and hear about the finished product.

The bow is Smooth, Fast, Silent. Many aspects of the shot cycle is like a feather. On to the next few.

Many mistakes were made however the shot cycle is perfect. Howard Hill never built a bow past 1942 that we know of. A few bows were backed with various material. Howard had it right. I have a path. I have help.

It looks very good and making mistakes is part of the making cycle. Is it close to #70?
