Would it be possible to strip the bamboo off the back and replace it? Those BBOs are some beautiful bows. You can build your own form, just need a couple 2X4s and some rope or clamps. Get ya some adhesive from 3 Rivers or Kustom King and you should be able to go with it.
Of course, this does give you a GOOD excuse to go to Missouri. 8)
Hook up with wingnut, aka Mike Westvang, and see if he can give ya any info. He builds Dryad selfbows. You can see them on
www.clearforkarchery.com. He has his own website too,

I hope the best comes to ya.
