Default RE: Bow Building - I glued it up !!

Arthur Im still here - I have been calming down since my glue up ! Man i was SO SO upset after I did it becuase the Bocote veneer slide out on me some but Im going to be ok I belive...... it looks pretty good - my fadeouts could have been tighter though - Ill never use plexiglass again for the pressure strip under the hose..... but I think it will be ok......Im not really sure what gap size(glue line) is considered to much at the fade out....

Anyway - Ill get a pic of it up later... I just started cleanin edges last night, tape is still on... im cleaning her up to see what I got tonight.... start layin out my limbs..... bein a Bowyer can be tough - now I know why they charge 700+ for a nice recurve or longbow !!
