Inlay work on risers
« on: June 21, 2016, 05:40:00 PM »
Hello, Brush Wolf
On your topic A couple in the works, someone ask how you made the inlays on your risers and I didn't see any reply. Is this something you would perfer not to tell anyone or did you reply under a new topic? I think it is real nice and would like to try it on my next build if you would be willing to share your method.
                                  Thanks

If you are talking about the strip
it's on this page.

This stack was 1" thick, I resaw them to about .100 thick
from left to right maple 1" wide white phenolic 1/16" black phenolic 1/8" white again and then wenge
 

You sand down to .062 and on top and bottom white phenolic sand to .037 each, total thickness .125
 
I would rather fail at something above my means, than to succeed at something  beneath my means

It takes some time to do it, but the payoff is awesome

Nice build.  :cool:  
That is something I have to try.  I have spent countless hours looking at bows online, never gets tiring.

I think I might have pm them on the topic. But can't say for sure it's been crazy here for a while now. I basically do what Mark said. If you have any problems just shoot me a pm.
