RE: The Chrissy Present Build Along
The 1st of the revised limbs is in the heat box.
Lucky I ordered extra glass and boo, I was going to make myself a new RD bow to use on closing week end.

Ok the first limb is out of the oven shaped string grooves cut.
The Shedura under glass.
Now the Ossage I was able to keep some of the dark lines the Ossage had in it sorta gives some charracter to the limb.

Wasting perfectly good osage by putting it under glass
Mate.
I had those 2 strips here and they would not be any good for anything else, 36" x 1 1/2" x 1/8" just purrrrrrrfect for lams
Guess I could have made tomato stakes out of them

Any piece of osage over 34" will be put in a tri lam organic bow. Osage makes such a great core wood under bamboo, with a belly of some good solid wood like hickory or ipe. Ill save the perty woods, that cant be used for organic bows, to put under glass.
