Generally on selfbows folks are gonna want to see the width profile and the bow unbraced and rested. Gives us a sense of how much wood is working and how much set or string follow the bow has. Also good to know the width at the widest point on the limb, and the lenght, and where the bow started, in terms of set and where finish. For example, bow was 1" of reflex before tillering, 1/2" of follow after.
Looks like a really nice project. No small accomplishment to get a 70# selfbow. I'd say the upper limb needs a little adjustment to correct the stiff spot right off the fade but it looks good. Also perhaps to adjust the positive tiller, if it is excessive. Lower limb seems a little stiffer at full draw but if it shoots good and takes equal set on upper versus lower from work that's all that matters.
Show us again when you get the clear on and handle wrapped.
Nice job. Thanks for posting.
