Longbow riser jig I made.
« on: July 25, 2009, 05:29:00 PM »
It works with a bottom roller drum sander on a drill press. The plexiglass guide on the bottom slides against the roller creating a perfect curve on the front of the riser block. I just cut close to the line and let the sander do the rest. The clamp came from woodcraft.

I think if I did the belly fades 1st with a concave plexiglass guide patterned off my longbow, I could then use the flat portion of the grip with this jig for the back.
