Such a good thread, and I realized I never added my JD Berry Northstar (stringfollow forward handle)

It looks to me like all you have to do is take your regular Hill style back-set form, reverse your string nock grooves, and you have a forward riser stringfollow.

I have a Hill Style stringfollow form I've built a couple of bows off of so I think I'm going to try the opposite. That way I should have a forward riser back-set bow. I have some eastern red cedar I've been dying to put into a bow so I think I'll use that for the lams. Ah-La Dave Johnson.

It is similar in form , just be sure to calculate in your lam stack and tapers for the reverse bends.
