Q: What are wood/material options? 
A: Wood options for risers and limbs are listed in each bows product description. There is also article about riser and limb patterns in page INFO section.

Q: Is there any wood chart for material/color comparison?
A: There is no wood comparison chart. I once made it but wood in chart and in real life finished bow looked different and such chart is misleading. At this moment I am updating page gallery section with photos how different materials look in finished bow. There aren't all materials shown but I am working on that. Those wood species that you can find in galley you can try to google. They should look very similar.

Q: How are bows shipped? What are shipping cost?
A: All bows are shipped in wooden boxes for safe travel. Most of the time I am using EMS courier service and shipping price to your country you can check at their web page price calculator (link copy/pasted in 06.02.2020). https://expresspasts.lv/en/price-calculator/  Country FROM is Latvia. Weight of package is 3-4.5kg for single bow. BUT longbows can be shipped only to EUROPE. Oversea shipping for longbow is possible but that will be very expensive.

A: Depending on waiting line ordered bow will be finished in 1- 4 months.

Q: Can I make any changes in my order after you have started making it?
A: Yes, that can be done but contact me! Depending of what type of change that is and at what stage of making I am it can or can't be done.
