D/R design:  52" long, 1" wide, .250 - .255 thick at fadeout, 14 1/4" riser.  That'll give you 30# - 32# @ 26".

If you use tapers, go with .001/in. but it works fine with all paralells.

That's the kind of info. I need! Only for a 50# bow. Can it be glued up using clamps instead of a form?

Bona, you can use clamps, the trick is to get equal pressure.
