Sad to hear of the passing of BowDoc; I never had any contact with him, but he was clearly a fixture in and an asset to the community, and not so many people do that anymore....
Curious, though.... is there anyone to take up that mantle?
I have a bow that's a bit of a Project; no money in it to speak of, but it looks like it was built by someone with a pretty good idea what he was doing and I'd hate to ruin it for lack of proper tools... which means I may never get around to it.
So now I'm wondering where on earth I might find someone who could bump the twist out of the limb(s) and lay up some new limb tips....
No idea where to turn...
Thoughts?

Rich Lopez - he went by Droptine for a while, I think he changed handles though.
He has his own website droptinetraditions

I know folks who used The Bow Hospital and were very happy with the results.

If he willing and has time, Jeff Freeman, the bodymanbowyer here does some beautiful work. I have seen some of his refinishes as well.

Bow Hospital - Prairie Traditions- John Rafferty; I believe all these names are/were associated with the bow hospital, but ownership & personalities may have changed over time. They have done a number of my bows (wt. reduction & refinishing) and did great work.
