Author Topic: The Tollhouse Recurve Dano Contributor 2009 Member # 748 posted                        Doug, it's just a scrap piece of wood 6" long, what you do is run it along the belly of the bow length wise and check the gap in the middle of the walkie talkie. It helps you see flat spots as your tillering. The only trouble is keeping the bow drawn long enough to read the limbs. Not sure but I think Dean Torges came up with the idea, or passed it down. -------------------- "If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy" Red Green Posts: 7499 | From: Nevada | Registered: Apr 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Linc Trad Bowhunter Member # 285 posted                        Migh-T-y fine bow there Buddy.When you're good, you're good. -------------------- Lincoln E.

Posts: 1316 | From: Memphis, Tn | Registered: Mar 2003  |  IP: Logged |  the Ferret Trad Bowhunter Member # 103 posted                        Yea I missed it somehow too Terry, guess cause I'm plumb tuckered when I set down to check thigs out after picking and shoveling ice all day. That's a stunner Dano, excellent work! If ya need some skins to dress her up a bit shoot me an email, like to contribute to such a nice piece of elfin magic. that Timo's alright isn't he? -------------------- There is always someone that knows more than you, and someone that knows less than you, so you can always learn and you can always teach Posts: 12891 | From: Cincinnati, Ohio | Registered: Mar 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Dano Contributor 2009 Member # 748 posted                        Thanks guys. David, I did what the experts said pretty much, and got the all the use out of the limbs I thought I could, and then I let the curves bend a tad. Mickey, done shovlein snow yet? Dangit bud I just ordered some skins from Mike Yancey, thank you anyhow, some Brazos River skins, they sound nice I have never seen one, but I thought I'd take a chance. Timo is a fine member of mankind ain't he. -------------------- "If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy" Red Green Posts: 7499 | From: Nevada | Registered: Apr 2003  |  IP: Logged |  clintopher Trad Bowhunter Member # 4611 posted                     Dano, You look taller than someone with a 24" draw in your avatar...must be the hat. You're bow's lookin' real nice. Where did you take off too much wood resulting in the 40lb draw? Will your next recurve be static or dynamic and why? Clint Posts: 1724 | From: VA | Registered: Oct 2004  |  IP: Logged |  Dano Contributor 2009 Member # 748 posted                        Clint, good questions. First it ain't the hat. You don't need much wieght with a recurve, I read where you get 20% more speed from a curve, so I didn't worry too much about the wieght. I wouldn't mind builing a static, Statics are cool, and I want to try the kerf method of bending the curves, but it won't be soon. -------------------- "If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy" Red Green Posts: 7499 | From: Nevada | Registered: Apr 2003  |  IP: Logged |  Sparky Trad Bowhunter Member # 584 posted                     Looking good buddy!

Kinda funny,but I was cleaning the shop today, and got down the recurve I made last year.I then remembered that it to was made from the same tree!
