Well, I’m halfway toward skinning the bow. Put the first one on the upper limb today while the other is drying. I don’t know if I need to dry it because it’s ready to put it on the bow but I’ll do it unless someone tells me otherwise.
I put waaaay too much glue on the first time and it was a big mess, but I got most of it cleaned up and the remaining stuff can be sanded off and refinished.
It should look really good in the end. The copper skins will starkly contrast each other in coloration.
