Don't take this wrong, but have you actually built any wood-glass composite bows before, or is this your first?  Any 3-piece bolt-together takedowns?  Most of the builders here work from "plans" they have created in their heads to explore an idea or a material.

I'm not a builder of 3-piece takedown bows, but the first thing I would do is search this Bowyers Bench for threads related to belly-mounted TD risers.  You might also search for threads related to making TD recurve limbs.

yes i have built several conventional take down 3 piece bows, i have built several RF/DF long bows.
I have purchased plan from a couple fellas on here before, Kenny's Custom for one, have used Bingham's plans too.
Before I posted, I did a search of the web, and this forum too.
Don't take this the wrong way, not everyone may have the ability to just do it off the fly and might improve their building skills by the use of a plan.
Thanks for your....help.

I don't build take downs so I can't give any specific advice, but a good case study would be Black Widow design.
