My first bow

Yesterday evening I finished my first bow. (to be used with my fiddle)
It is made after an example by Gerhard Landwehr.
Materials used:
  • shaft: larch (larix) diameter from 12 mm to 6 mm. (conical)
  • frog: pear
  • hair: about half the amount of a regular violin bow.
weight aprox. 32 grams.
