I also have to ask, how much deflex will you end up with. I noticed you deflexed the limbs and the riser.
Kent.

I am aiming for around 1.75" to 2" I knowit looks like it's gonna be more but the limbs wont be the full lenght of the form, the finished bow is going to be 66" groove to groove.

As for the bottom of the form there wil be a strip of Formica glued to it, it just has not turned up yet, I could have used hardwood but did not have a strip long enough laying around that I dont have plans for.
Formica will work. Ive always liked hickory around 1/8 inch.. I didnt think you would over look it, just wanted to mention it..
