My son makes his own bows, and I worked on one together with him. Here are a few pics..
My biggest advice would be to never skimp on the sanding, and finish the sanding by hand.
Don't let it sit in a hot car when you are done, I lost my first bow that way when the glue seperated.
good luck. also, take pictures.
