The colors of the bullseye tubing up till now have been limited by the few that I could get in the right size in small qty's. I've had micarta, and FR-4. FR-4 is fire resistant G-10, and is VERY expensive. I've now found a new material, and supply that would allow a variety of colors: black, blue, green, red, white, yellow, and clear! I bought green for my test. The glue holds the material very well, and it even polishes up GREAT!! So. What colors should I get??? Black and red are a must IMO. What says y'all?
 
Get yellow too. It will be a nice contrast and monocromatic look. Unless it clashes too much w the osage, or is too garish of yellow.
 
The clear is kinda disapointing until you hold your LED flashlight up to it at night. Thats the only time it looks clear. The rest of the time it just looks blackish.
 
I think it would look good to have the bullseye match the liner material. I like to to see the contrast from the liner to the handle materials.
 
I agree that matching the liner material is a good idea. I'm going to order red, black, and white. I already have green. I'll have to see if somebody makes green liner material. I should have gotten blue first...

Don't forget yellow:thumbup:
 
You should mix up that clear with some of the glow dust you got. A glowing bullseye, now that would be cool as hell!
