Since you can build a selfbow, I assume that you are already familiar with "The Traditional Bowyer's Bible".

There's an awful lot of info in "Traditional Bowyers of America" by Dan Bertalan. I'm not sure if it's still available though.

The TBB series is good but they don't cover anything in the way of glass lam bows. The books are dedicated to self bows and wood laminate bows.

If you are looking for "Glass Bow Building" info Jack Harrison's book Called "More unnecessary fun" might help you.
Good luck with your project(s) keep us posted.

Go to the Bowyer's Bench forum here on TradGang, there is a lot of information there. Run a search on KennyM and check out his build alongs.
