Reconstructions of "The visible bow"?
Have anyone here made a chinese bow based on the documentation from Stephen Selby?

I remember looking at the bow many years ago, but it is only now that I realized that the bow is very well documented with regards to reconstruction. It would surprice me if no-one had used this very good information to make a similar bow, but I can not remember seeing more than one or two here on the forum.
Anyway, I've put this bow on my "to-make"-list, and was wondering if someone here was sitting on some experience with making such a bow?

That is a fasicnating article and very interesting to be able to see the cross section.
Wen-Cheh Huang is making some bows like this :-)
