Default Laminating Advice Sought

I have a friend that has a well seasoned osage orange fence post about 4"X4"X 8' long. He has asked my advice on building a few stick bows out of it. My first impression is to cut slabs on a table saw and glue them together, but what do I know, I'm an xbower,lol. I was kind of hoping you guys would share your expertise on how thick to slice the slabs, what kind of glue to use and what dimensions might come up w/ about a 25 # bow for an 8 yr old I want to introduce to trad shooting. Maybe laminated is not truely trad, don't know and don't mean to insult the discipline, just looking for some advice. Tia.
