New adjustable post bow form!
« on: May 25, 2008, 07:25:00 PM »
I spent most of today designing and building a new bow form.  I needed one that I could adjust the height and location of my deflex and reflex posts.  This is what I came up with.  The tracks were found in a dumpster about a year ago.  When I saw them I knew I would use them for something one day.  I think they are for holding track lights.  They are perfect for this.  The end posts are socketed so that I can just cut different length sections of 2X4 for different degrees of reflex.  I can slide every post around, and slide them off the assembly if needed.  The inner pieces of wood are red oak 1X2s with screw in inserts to accept my 1/4" X 24 bolts.

Marty, I want to thank you for sharing this incredible journey you have been on for the past couple of years. I remember the story of the first trad kill you made up by the freeway and the progression to where you are today. AWESOME!!! That adjustable form is the ticket but don't stop thinking because you are definetly clicking with these ideas and bows.
