Is the material you have sufficient for core material or is it veneers to put over cores?

I would only go veneers and don't recommend it on radical limb designs. Better safe than sorry.

That said, I believe Trux Turning has a 56" TD recurve made with knotty from here. That would be all core in those. Maybe he'll happen by and tell us what he thinks of it.....
