Limb tips

[Dannon]

Do you guys have any tips or tricks to get your limb tips the same? I’m working on a bow now and got the tips glued on today and i started shaping them this afternoon. I just can’t seem to get them to look exactly alike.

Dannon- i wouldn't be too preoccupied about it. You do want them to be a similar size from a weight point of view, but if the string grooves are of uniform depth and angle, and each limb tip is shaped and finished well in it's own right...........get on with it and start shooting!

If you do them by hand they will very seldom be PERFECTLY  the same. I know mine are not. But never had complaints about that.

No secrets. Just practice, experience, attention to detail, and always trying to make each one better than the last.

Lay them out with a pencil...

Then get close to line with belt sander then use 220 grit sandpaper by hand.

Go slow.

Thanks guys , I’m getting them close!

It's hard to look at them both at the same time.  Nobody will notice.

Yeah, I lay mine out with a pencil and shape by hand.  They're never *exactly* the same.  Doesn't seem to hurt anything and the only person it bothers is me....

I do the top, pointy and the bottom, bulbous. Don't have to worry about symmetry that way.
