I haven't used veneers but a bow back I had a lam pop at the scarf line during a dry run so I increased my joint length now I don't think there will be a issue now, when I finish this 58" I will make another with the parallels not much time this time of year I may just order the lams from Kenny so I can get it out faster or have him make me a parallel S/L sled !

What do you join them with , CA? I thought with most veneers only being around .0015 there wouldn’t be much surface area in the scarf. My full length veneers are actually just s lam in size ie, say 065 along with couple of ‘boo lams

I don't use veneers Bob , I just make pretty is as pretty does hunting bows , nothing like your art, I was talking about the lams & I do use CA The last couple bows I have just been using 3 lams 2 parallel & 1 .001 S/L less glue lines and easy line up !

Yep mine have been 3 lams too.One at back and two on belly side.

With my belly up form I do it opposite of you I do 2 lams back & the super/lam on the belly if I have small imperfections on the riser the 2 lams together snug it up , I'm working on getting the parallel super/lam together hoping to get the short riser glued up this week end !

Might try that next time I get to build another one. aAways good to swap ideas.
