After working 25 days straight they decided to give me a day off so I got busy and made the new limbs.

I'll have to get some better pics when I get my good camera back.

So what do you all think??????????



I love Tigerwood under glass.



Maple



Elk Antler

Looks great. Just a question if do not mind; Are you concerned about all the run offs? I know its a glass sandwich bow, I was just wondering if the run offs are of a concern?

In a word no

Have not had one fail because of the grain run off, the lams are really only there for show, the glass and bamboo do most of the work.

Dave.

I think we really should stick to the original plan and hunt Elk

But hey if we tag out early then we can go looking for wood.

No worries mate just let me know what you want

Kanga, what combo of tapers and parallels do you use in your limbs. Have you tried using a automotive cut off saw/wheel to cut out the limbs ? Works fast and is cheap.

Greg.

This model has a taper, a bamboo parallel then a reverse taper.

I have not tried a cut off wheel to profile the limbs, the belt sander with a 40 grit belt is fast as well
