limb twist develops while tillering
« on: July 28, 2011, 02:20:00 PM »
One of the limbs on an osage bow I am tillering has developed a bit of a propeller twist to the outer 1/3 of the limb. Is this because there was too much taken off one side of that limb? Do I just continue to tiller by taking wood off the other side of that limb to allow it be bend more evenly?

See this post...it address tiller-induced twist:
