More tillering
« on: December 31, 2006, 04:15:00 PM »
Look at this and tell me what you think. The L was weak at 3in brace so I worked it down then then went to 10in. and the l was weak. Also the R took an inch more set. What is going on? /IMG][/IMG]  http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v230/scott1/DSC00825.jpg[/IMG][/IMG]   [IMG][IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v230/scott1/DSC00823.jpg[[IMG]

What wood? Measurements?
From the pictures it looks like a large handle or short limbs.

Red oak backed with 1 layer of drywall tape. 70inNTN, 4in handle, 2in fades on each end. 1 5/8 wide at fades tapering to 1/2 wide at nocks. If yall think its firewood Im cool with that. LOL. I have an osage stave shaped but I do not want to start tillering it until I have some more experience with a couple of Board bows.

Looks fine to me so far.  It may be a bit too strong to be drawing in earnest but keep working at ti.  Your right limb might take a few more scrapes than the left.  Keep at it.  You are doing fine.
