Oak round window

Today I finnished the round window

I had to make a steamer so that I could bend the beading for the window.
I didn't have any dowl to hold the stock in place so I cut up a broken arrow , which I think is a preety cool thing to use . 
It's the first time I've streamed timber and it is suprisingly bendy once hot , but it cools so quick then becomes brittle , you need to be on your toes.
